Competitive Teams A Tough Run Around To pre pare for this year ' s season, the ath- letes had to work up their endurance. To achieve the endurance needed for the races, the boys ' varsity crosscountry team spent the entire summer running long distances. Crosscountry is not an easy sport, but it can be very enjoyable and self-rewarding. This year ' s Most Improved Player was Jeff Gann and Most Inspirational was Dennis Bachman. Most Valuable Player went to a fine athlete, Rene Hernandez, and the Viking of the Year was John Weppler. The final toll of the team ' s scores was three wins and three losses. Coach Greer said the team needed to work harder in the off season to compensate for the tough league they were in. The entire team, including the coach, is bound and determined to do better next year and is looking forward to next year ' s season.
