Outstanding in Every Way High schools produce many fine athletes through their ath- letic programs, but rarely are the likes of an Everett Pacheco st x.. An outstanding runner in cross country and track, Everett will leave behind a le- gacy of excellence that will long serve as an incentive for Mt. View runners. His list of ac- complishments is seemingly endless: three years undefeated in cross country dual meets, twice varsity cross country league champion, set a CIF frosh soph record in the 880-yd. run with a time of 1:56. 9 (still a record), member of the all- San Gabriel Valley cross coun- try team as a junior and a senior, varsity track league champ in the 880-yd., mile and 2-mile. These fine efforts not withstand- ing. Coach Ralph Hernandez felt that Everett ' s best performance came in a dual track meet with Arroyo last year when he ran the 880-yd. (1:59.8), the mile (4:32.5), the 2-mile (10:07), and the mile relay (51. 9 leg) with at most a half -hour rest in between. Each year the girls ' physical education department recognizes a senior girl who has shown scholastic and athletic achieve- ment, a high quality of attitude, and an interest in and a support of the field of girls ' P.E. and athletics. Rachel Mejia distin- guished herself abover her peers to earn the award for her over- all contribution to the girls ' physical education program. Her accomplishments include: let- tering in tennis (3 yrs.), basket- ball (2 yrs.), and Softball (3 yrs.); a P.E. student service assistant; president of GAA executive board; most valuable player in JV and varsity tennis. v- Ju.
