San G wrestling team young but tough Wrestling was a sport which took a total commitment and a sport that took 100% effort or nothing at all Even if only a few practices were missed a week, it could be the difference between winning and losing. The San Gorgonio Wrestling team had a tough season. I feel that we are doing quite well considering the youth of our team. We are mostly sophomores and freshmen and we are still doing better than average, commented Coach Jim Hall, head coach of the Spartan wrestling squad. The varsity and junior varsity tling teams practiced every day after school for two hours. They worked on new takedown and escape drills and prac- ticed wrestling against team members of their own weight. The hardest teams to beat this year had to be Fontana and Pacific, admitted Zack Flores. The team captains were Jack Negrete and Zack Flores. Both of them, along with Mike Houser, were said to be the top wrestlers. Mike made the CIF playoffs, and Reggi Turner, junior; Jack Flores, sophomore; Idrisa Sammah, sophomore; Travis Greene, senior; Chris Saucedo, senior; and William Pettis, senior were chosen as alternates.

They work hard and learn quickly. They never complain about the work load. San Gorgonio ' s wrestling stars were freshman David Whitaker at 105 pounds, Zack Flores at 121 pounds, senior Mike Houser at 155 pounds, and Idrisa Sammah at 167 pounds. The team had something not many other wrestling teams had. They had wrestleret- tes. These were a group of girls who cheered on the wrestlers, kept stats for the coaches, and just lent their support to the team. These girls could be found on the sidelines of every home and away match. Debi Mit- chell, class of 85 Mike Seals, class of 86 H

Fast-moving sport at San G sweeps nation Right: Kicking a goal kick, senior Gary Florin, fouryear soccer veteran, helps in the victory over Palm Springs 2 1. Below: Sophomore, Brian Keefer looks for a pass up field, as JV goes against Colton. The Varsity and Junior Varsity soccer squads had very good seasons. Both teams worked hard and strived for success. Soccer, which is a fast moving sport, required the athletes to be in ex- cellent condition and show good ball control. This sport was swiftly sweeping the nation and would soon become very popular. Three girls played on the JV squad. Since there was not an all girls squad, this was a great ac- complishment for Laura Brown, Janet German and Collette Chase. Janet was quoted as saying, It was a great challenge playing soccer this year. Both teams practiced everyday after school until 3:00 p.m., and most of the players were able to get in an extra workout during sixth period PE. The JV squad was coached by Mr. Homen, while the Varsity squad was under the instruction of Mr. Jerry Beeman. The team placed third in the Citrus Belt League and was able to go on to CIF where they were eliminated after the first round. Six players were named for CBL teams. First team was Gary Florin, James Vancura and Barry Molten. Se- cond team was Richard Althouse, Scott Howes and Tim Franklin. Soccer continued to become a major sport both at San Q and in this country ' s athletics. Gary Florin, class of ' 83 Danny Quiggle, class of
