I ln district we won every run- ning event except the 200, said boys, coach Greg Guillory. The team depth this year was excellent. Our goal was to win district, which we won by 40 points. And, by the end of the season, the team won six meets and placed second in the seventh. We had a great season. This was our first time to win district in 5 years, said junior Jeff Rogers. Breaking the school record for a team point total, the Varsity scored 288 points at the Prairie Relays. Also breaking school records were senior Andy Ketch in the 3200 with a time of 9:05.5 and the 1600 with a time of 4:14.7g senior Jeff Beitzenrater in the 400 with a time of 48.14, and junior Sam Lowe in the 440-yard dash with a time 48.33. The distance medley team of Ketch, senior Kel- ly Fisher, junior Wiliam Price, and sophomore Russell Krasnesky also broke a school record. My long time goal was to set a new school record, said Lowe, which was great to say the least. While the boys were winning, the girls' team was rebuilding and setting goals for themselves. Our goal is always to do the best you can, to believe in yourself and to place as high as you can. We demonstrated that by our district finish, said girls' coach Tonna Duke. We were expected to finish 5th, but we came in 2nd although in district we did not score in 6 of the 15 events, added Duke. The girls lacked experience and numbers in the high jumps and distance while their strengths were evident in the sprints, hurdles, long and triple jumps. Setting a new school record in the hurdles with a time of 14.28, junior Robin Fuller also set a long jump record with an 18'5 jump. Fuller also led the team in the 400-meter relay and 800-meter relay. Others strong for the Eagles were senior Lisa Pearce in the 400-meter relay, 1600-meter relay, hurdles, long and triple jumps, senior Teresa Pero in the shot and discus, and senior Caroline Sim- mons in the 1600-meter relay, 400-meter dash, long and triple jumps. The strengths were the girls' knowledge of track. They were track smart and knew how to com- pete, said Duke. This has been a prominent season, added Pearce. As time went by we looked and felt stronger. Everyone's attitudes became positive. Track at RHS has a great tradition, stated Guillory, and this year's teams added to that tradition. - Allison Walker - 4 2.
