The Spartan teams started picking up the pace during the summer and ear- ly school year with the beginning of practices. They practiced after school for three to four long and hard hours, trying out various positions, learning new and old plays, planning the strategy to be used on their opponents, and getting ready for the upcoming season. It was a lot of hard work, but it was worth it after placing second in CBL, commented Cynthia Perez, a varsity volleyball player. When the season began, most of San G ' s teams got off to a good start. They ranked high in CBL standings and did well in CIF playoffs. Football went to the playoffs for the first time in ten years. During the seasons, players would rush to read the newspaper to see who had won Prep of the Week, and similar awards presented by the county. As the seasons came to an end, the players found out who made the re- quirements for a varsity letter. The ban- quets were planned at different local restaurants, some more formal than others. At the banquets, the coaches named the players who received awards such as M.V.P. (most valuable player) the captain for the following year, the coach ' s award and most improved award. The spirit at San Gorgonio was at a high pace during the 1982 83 year. Students would travel to distant games just to watch their school play. The crowds were enthusiastic and ready to cheer their teams on to victory. Cheerleaders were at every football, basketball, and water polo game cheer ing and standing behind their team one hundred percent. Many people didn ' t get formal credit for the many victories of the teams. Coaches, stat people, and managers spent many hours getting the teams ready on and off the field or court, and helping the teams during the games. All combined to put San G sports on a fast pace to the winner ' s circle. editor: Debt Mitchell section assistants: Debbie Dowell Danny Quiggle
