' Ben Garcia, Jeff Noland, and Steve An- derson formed the nucleus of the team, which was mainly underclassmen. Garcia and Noland were considered all- around men for the team. Specialists. such as Sheldon Clark, Robert Patze, and Steve Rueter were expected to pro- vide high scores in their competition. The ring team, the strongest in the city, is perfecting routines that have some very 'difficult maneuvers. Such routines are back uprise, hand stands, shoot hand stands, and double back off, explained varsity gymnast Steve Anderson. Ben Garcia, the number one man on the team, was in top contention for the city title as all-around champion. He also was predicted to take high ratings on the side horse, parallel bars, and the still rings. S PORTS 145
