Each year before school begins, the freshmen come together on orientation night to learn all about being a Benedictine student. In addition to hearing speeches from Fr. Dominic and others, they also get to buy their gym equipment and locks. Orientation is very helpful in that it helps the freshmen get acquainted with the school. Mrs. Jason straightens out a freshman. 66 Welcome to Benedictine! Abbot Roger’s Installation On Sunday, August 30th, 1981, Rev. Roger W. Gries O.S.B. had the Abbatial Blessing bestowed upon him by Bishop Anthony M. Pilla. The Mass was celebrated at St. Benedict Church by Bishop Pilla and concelebrated by Abbot Theodore Kojis O.S.B., Abbot Jerome Koval O.S.B. and Abbot Roger Grics O.S.B. The Mass was a beautiful one with Abbot Roger's family being gift-bearers. Students from Benedictine ushered the event which was a gala but stately affair. I 67 Coach Bossu. A successful leader and a leader lo success. Football Rallies 1981 Captain Bengal (Kay Schmidlin) and his dog sidekick Louie. Proud members of past State Championship football teams show their Benedictine spirit. Captain Bengal and his teammates defeat their foes to spark spirit in the team and in the school. Well-organized rallies haven’t been seen at Benedictine for a decade. To initiate school spirit (lacking in the early months of the year), football rallies were organized. These rallies included cheers, funny skits, singing of the fight song and the Alma Mater, excellent speeches by Fr. Dominic. Mr. Rufus, and Coach Bossu, and special appearances by some members of each past championship team. The rallies proved to be fun and successful in raising school spirit. 68 Health Hill Toy Drive HO!

Fun at the Oktoberfest Using it up at the Hofbrau House The German Club, under the leadership of Fr. Anselm, was as busy as ever during the past year. As well as going to the Hofbrau House twice, they also tried Szarkas's. Fund-raisers were also an important part of the German dub. Among the fund-raisers were bake sales, the third annual Oktoberfest. which was the most successful ever, and fish fries. These fundraisers helped cut the cost of the spring trip, which was a bus trip through Pennsylvania Dutch country with stops in Lancaster, Pa. and Washington D.C. 78 Four out of five dentists recommend Seagrams Seven for their patients who drink whiskey.

The 19X2 yearbook’s existence was threatened by financial problems. However, due to the time and effort of editor-in-chief Frank Matousck and several staff members, the yearbook pulled through. Unfortunately, though, this year's staff was inexperienced (not one staff member had been on a previous yearbook staff). Hopefully this won’t hurt the quality of the book. To prevent this in the future, this year's staff got back into the tradition of having underclassmen on the staff to help next year's book. Kneeling: Fr. Tim. '. Rosskopf. R Stark. P. O'Malley. I.

The Bengals opened with a 4X-0 victory over West Tech. Tailback Mike O'Neill gained 150 yards on 15 rushing attempts and 3 touchdowns. The defense held West Tech to a minus 17 yards rushing in 33 carries. The following week at Ashland due to a power failure the game was started late. This factor did not seem to bother the team as the offense totaled 566 yards, and a 40-0 victory. By the third game of the season Mike O'Neill was the area’s leading scorer with 7 touchdowns. On a muddy field at John Marshall, the Bengals went to the air for both of its touchdowns, and a 23 yard field goal by-Alex Szocs. 89 I I I In the fourth game of the season against Mansfield Madison the Bcngals found themselves behind for the first time, but an electrifying 70 yard punt return by O’Neill was all the team needed for the margin of victory. The defense only gave up 56 yards rushing, and 25 in the air. and 5 first downs. The fifth game of the season against Fremont Ross left everyone in a shock. The Bengals scored the winning touchdown with 25 seconds remaining in the game. Quarterback Paul Hrisko and wide receiver Rick King combined for two pass plays for a total of 58 yards, to go along with two field goals by Alex S ocs. The defense was keyed by Junior Tackle Mike Griffin. In the sixth game of the season the Bcngals defeated Youngstown Rayen in a record breaking manner. Quarterback Paul Hrisko broke the record for most completions 17, most attempts — 25, and most yards 329, his counterpart wide receiver Rick King broke the record for most receiving yards 235. The defense forced five turnovers. In front of a sellout crowd of over 6,000 people the Bcngals defeated Holy Name 20-12 in the seventh game of the season. Mike O'Neill led the team with 186 yards rushing on 35 carries. The following week found the Bcngals pitted against Cleveland Central Catholic, the only team that defeated them in 1980.

The Bcngals had a tough time with Padua because they found themselves down 7-0 and 14-7, but a Butch Flynn rushing touchdown, and a pair of Paul Hrisko touchdown passes to Rick King were all they needed. Junior linebacker Tony Helton contributed with two clutch interceptions.

Two relay teams (3200m and 400m) ran, and a shot putter threw on the cool, overcast day. While none of the athletes had their best performances at the Ohio State University stadium, they were the largest team from Benedictine to make it to the state finals in many years. The athletes who competed in Columbus (in the order they ran on the relays) were as follows: 3200 RELAY— 7th place Jim Kutrubs Tony Harris Frank Matousek Kevin Johnson 400 m RE LA Y 9th pladc Dave Montgomery Ken Johnson Darryl Nelson Don Durrah SHOT PUT—8th place Calvin Washington A.

Under Coach Jim O'Hare, who organized and began the tennis team, the team finished with a respectable 4-8 mark.

The 1982 Freshmen Track Team under first year coach, Joe Parise, was one of the smallest (participants) in the school’s history, but they accomplished a great deal. Many of the team members competed in more than one event. Although the Freshman Track Team was a small squad they did well against many teams twice their size. The Frosh were led by Doug lloolen, who participated in the shot put and 100 meter dash. John Henry Johnson participated in the pole vault and long jump events, and Dave St. John did very well in distance running events. Clockwise From BoUom Lcfv. M. stugusiine. T. Williams. P. Kenny. J.

This page has been dedicated by the 1982 staff to Fr. Cyril, who passed away on December 21. 1981. Fr. Cyril had been extremely active at Benedictine during the 47 years he spent at the Abbey. He was born on July 13. 1913. professed on July 2. 1934, and ordained on May 7, 1939. Fr. Cyril was the first to receive a diploma from Benedictine High School and was the first Benedictine graduate to enter the Abbey. During his years at Benedictine. Fr. Cyril held such roles as yearbook advisor, Bcnnct moderator. Dad's and Mom's Club moderator. Drama Club moderator, and Varsity Tennis coach. He also wrote the school's fight song and was moderator of ten senior classes. In addition to all these activities and his priestly duties, he was also a teacher. During his time. Fr. Cyril taught physics, algebra, geometry, Latin, mechanical and industrial arts, and. most recently, electronics. Fr. Cyril has been described by his peers as considerate, loving, kind, helpful, warm-tempered, soft-spoken, and a genius with a good sense of humor. Although we regret that he has passed away. Fr. Cyril will always live on in our memories as the great human being he really was. May He Rest in Peace. 141 UJonks of §t. Ankreui’s Abbey Congratulate tfje members of tlje Class of 1982.
