EX Sprinting To Victory Boys Track This year's boys' track team had high hopes for winning the Sunset League. The Vikings excelled in pre-season competition against such tough competitors as lrvine, Gahr, Laguna Hills, and Valencia. Marina also placed well at the lrvine Invitational where the Vikings' talented sprinter, Chip Rish, was declared Athlete of the Meet. The Vikings, under the direction of Coaches Dave Okua, Brian Beall, Jeff Heise, Matt Blaty, and Larry Doyle, contin- ually worked at fine-tuning their skills. All of the long hours of practice paid off dur- ing League competition where the Vikings dueled with such worthy opponents as Edi- son and Fountain Vally. Throughout the season, the Vikings were led by the strong performances of talented new team members as well as returning competitors: Preston Hayslette, Mitch Malone, Jim Maynard, and Chip Rish, Each and every member of the team put forth his best effort. This was certainly their secret to success.
