EX Kicks With Talent T Varsity Soccer This year's Varsity Soccer team put forth a tremendous amount of time and effort, even though their record didn't show it. Finishing with a 3-6-1 record over- all, they lost many close games, which were decided in the last few minutes. The Soccer team finished in the fifth place of the Sunset League. But the team showed their true potential when they were trailing the Westminster Lions by a score of 4 to 1 with thirty minutes left in the ball game and then came back to win the game by a score of 5-4 in the second half. ln that game, Pat Penner scored a phenomenal 4 goals. Under the inspiring coaching of Head Coach Dave Mcleish, the team concluded its season by beating Edison, 4-1. Outstanding players include: Pat Pen- ner, Tom McClane, Robert Long, Andy Kyler, Barry Kyler, Brett Harris, and Randy Wolfe. Go Marina!

JV Soccer This year's JV soccer team was an ex- cellent group of players who placed sec- ond in the Sunset League. This awesome team started it's season with a bang by winning the consolation championship over host Edison High School. They then went on to the semi-finals in the South Torrance Tournament before losing to eventual champions, South Torrance. ln league play, the team got off to a slow start, but made up for it in the end. This year's defense was solid with such players as Goalkeeper Dave Mojica, who had 63 saves and saved the game many times, and the very aggressive Rick Boyer and Rick Sherman. The offense was led by leading scorers Jason Britton and Bill Myers with eight and nine goals a piece respectively. Other excellent players in- cluded Ed Gurzi and Rob Opperud. Overall, this team did a great job, and will be a great asset to next year's Varsity team. Good job Vikes!
