Gridiron Pirates show The Pirates went through a rebuilding season this year as they ended the season with an 0-7 record. Though out-sized and out-numbered every game, the Pirates managed to come up with some inter- esting statistics. Doug Koch led all rushers with 360 yards. Rick Pelster followed with 318, and John Seier had 101. Larry Temme gained All- Conference honors with 29 receptions for 244 their mettle yards. Rick Pelster led the scoring department with seven touchdowns and one point-after-at- tempt for 44 points; Doug Koch had 40. Senior Larry Starman topped the defensive charts with 202 tackles. The departing Pirates are John Seier and Larry Starman. The Gridiron team will be looking forward anxiously to the 1982 season.

 Varsity Pirates persevere in losing volleyball season The varsity volleyball season was a tough one for the team, with only one returning letterman. The team’s overall record was 4-15. Although the girls may not have had a winning season, their endur- ance and pride never seemed to stop pushing them forward. Fortunately, the team will lose only two members this year, departing seniors Brenda Pel- ster and Bev Scholl. With most of the experienced varsity team returning, the prospects look good for next season. Above, Angie Benda carefully dinks one over onto Lindsay's court.
