Triumph Prevailing “Who's hungry?!” yelled Coach Ander- son, and. in unison, the team grunted “Me!! The boys' swim team was “continuously hungry, or in other words continuously do- ing their best. Aided by a strong relay squad, as well as aggressive individuals, the team’s “hunger attained a solid undefeated re- cord. The team went on to capture a first place tie at the Rotary Relay meet, a close second at City, another second at Division- al, and tenth position at State. Consistent performances were a result of individualized workouts and team unity un- der Jeff Anderson’s leadership. Coach An- derson commented on the uniqueness of this year’s team. The special unity we had ... We’re together for workout and recrea- tion. We could work hard and play hard. We could get to business, and when it was all over, have fun and be jokers. I am already looking forward to next year.. . year num- ber two of the Dobson Swim Team Dyn- asty!” Design by Kathi Moran. Photos by Greg Frequez.

Cross Country No Wimps Allowed Even before the sun came up the girls were out at practice, ready to show they weren’t wimps when it came to cross coun- try. To further prove this they had a prac- tice everyday and two on Tuesdays and Thursdays; the second of which was spent lifting weights. Adding to their grueling regimen, the sev- enteen girls were seen running through local neighborhoods at 5:00 in the morning. Fountain Hills, Kiwanis Park, and Papago Park were a welcome change of scenery during their six mile runs. Even the seemingly relaxing bus ride was prime time for activity — this time mental! Upon arrival at their meets, individual prep- aration and group stretching were routine. The finale was a team cheer which boosted their morale and filled them with winning spirit.
