Kickers Move Indoors i gil While most people are snug in their beds at 6;30 on Saturday mornings, a dedicated bunch of people are up and active. These same individuals are found run- ning around at midnight Saturday and at other various times during the weekend. These people are not insomniacs, but they ' re the boys and girls of the four indoor soccer teams. The boys team, run by seniors Alex O ' Kulich and Rich Bayman, competed in the U-19 Premier Division and was comprised main- ly of varsity players. This team allowed the boys to stay together after the fall season. As senior goalkeeper David Wolff com- mented, We had fun every day during the fall and this keeps us together once a week. This team, whose uniforms were sup- plied by sponsor Jack Critafield of WECK surgical supplies, was the only team which received any form of finanical assistance. Senior Craig Cicconc ran the by Katy Andreae Other boys team which, due to the inexperience of the team, com- peted in a lower division. Cic- cone ' s team consisted of JV players from the fall season and even some with little or no experi- ence. It ' s not as serious since we don ' t have a real coach, so we can just have fun, said rookie Todd Morton. The varsity girls team, led by Co-Captains Katy Andreae and Elissa Sard, played at the crack of dawn on Saturdays against It ' s (the indoor sea- son) the sweetest time of the year; we ' ve got team spirit, we ' ve got team unity, we love to play together, we rule everyone - we ' re awe- some!

It ' s challenging and good compe- tition and 1 figure if 1 can play with the ' varsity ' competition indoor, 1 have a good chance outdoor, said freshman Kate O ' Brien. The team consisted of varsity players and aspiring JV players hoping to gain enough experience to play ' varsity in the spring. Playing in Division B, Sea- holm 2, coached by Harve Light, Cory Robertson and other guys, took on the JV counter part of those teams the varsity played. The unity developed during the winter season allowed the girls to get a head start on the spring season and as Mary Beth Simon interjected, It ' s fun and it ' s something to do on Saturdays.

Clubs Compete, Gain Skills T ' . et s 21 P« Ls jjtei» ' by Chris Raymond Scoring the winning touchdown or making the winning basket are things Computer Team and Video Club participants might never experience. Instead, these talent- ed individuals gain their thrills through such accomplishments as solving challenging computer problems and creating their own television series. I see our computer team as being just like any other sport, said senior Tim Carroll, who was one of the team ' s top competitors. In a typical match, four people from each team are given 150 minutes to solve four computer problems on the Apple 11 comput- er. Points are subtracted for bad runs as well as for running over- time. Seaholm has excelled against their competitors, some being Country Day and Brother Rice. Seaholm has captured league championships for the last three years. Our toughest opponent is Brother Rice, noted Matt Kli- mesh. Those students involved in Video Club wrote, directed and produced their own television shows. I joined the Video Club to get a head start in a career I always wanted to see, explained Sarah Paulkstis. Although they don ' t compete, the Video Club is 4( Video Club is a great learning experi- ence . . . acting and broadcasting are great . . . I ' ve never had a better time in my life!?) Mike Fortuna still out to make the best product they can. Most students joined the Video Club to have a good time, to meet new people and most important- ly, to learn about the growing field of television broadcasting. Video Club productions are aired on BPS Channel 21. One show that can be seen right now is Mind Your Language, a quiz game show. The Video Club also started a new exciting series called Psychiatrists of Our Lives , (a soap spinoff). Both the computer team and Video Club members experience the challenge of lively compe- tions. In addition, the skills learned will be a great asset in college and the working world, especially with heavy usage of computers and a need of visual equipment today.
