 To Eric Valliere. pumping this much iron is no “big” deal. Being the strongest student at Dobson for two years and a leader on the football team, Eric Valliere found that it took a lot more than just the “power of Greyskull”. Weightlifting, running, and other rigorous training had to fit into Eric’s everyday schedule. As he ex- plained. “It’s rough . . . most of the time. Friday’s game is all I can think about.” With his size and strength to his advantage, Eric excelled on the foot- ball field as well. Before the season, he was rated as the best offensive guard in the Phoenix area, and was a very “strong” candidate for all- state honors. Heather Spurling Lynn Squillante Mike Staggs Tamara Stalnecker Darren Starr Denise Stauffer Kerry Stelske Master of the Universe Commented Coach Clark, “Eric leads with action, not words .. . he’s very aggresive and it works as a catalyst for the team.” Hilary Stephens Kimberly Stephens Aaron Sterns Damon Stevens 3 Dan Stewart Michael Stewart Bill Stickler Lisa Stofanik$P Wendi Stormer Darren Stroughter eople 219 CO UJ Z o CC CO
