Wrestling 44 --- Sports WRE TL1 No introduction is needed for a team as great as the Crusader Wrestlers. A new and experienced coaching staff, Craig Nartker and Marty Straub, led both the Varsity and J .V. to yet another undefeated season. The Varsity duel streak wa: extended to 122 wins and they once again won their 13th consecutive League Championship and their Sth consecutive State Championship. Winning the State tournament was a total team effort, stated Coach Nartker. Eleven Varsity wrestlers qualified for the State Championship and all eleven were very important in the tough competition. Corey Jones and Neal Keller successfully placed first at State with Kelly Brewster and Mark Schmidt being awarded third place. The J .V. was determined not to be overshadowed by their Varsity teammates with a duel record of 8-0, extending their winning streak to 87 consecutive wins. The team competed in varsity tournaments as a J .V. squad and placed high in both competitions. The future looks bright! exclaimed Coach Straub, caught up in the excitement of his winning season. Once again, the KMC Wrestlers proved themselves worthy of the praise and bestowed upon them. They will remain the best wrestling team in the State, and a very important force in the school's spirit and pride.

The latest duo had arrived. But they weren't the only new sparks to hit the teamg the girls found themselves with a great new coach-Welcome Mrs. Peter! With the team's regular superstars, seniors Bridget O'Connor and Sarah Ewy the season was destined for the top. Before the girls knew it they were at state. Bridget once again won the 5A singles title while Sara was close behind taking third. lst place in doubles at state was taken by Lisa and Charlotte with no trouble at all . . . But don't get the wrong idea. There was more to the season than taking home the trophies. There was plenty of pigging out on pizza in Ark City, getting lost on highway 235, and of course making practices on time. Mastering this task was one of the most difficult which entailed racing to the courts while Coach Peter stood with a huge smile and a wristwatch.
