Volleyball An Outstanding Year “An outstanding year,” are the words from Coach Tesdal describing the work of this year’s volleyball team. The league teams were split up into two sections; East, Consisting of Corbett, P.C., and Lutheran, and West, consisting of Vernonia, Warrenton, and Knappa. After the league season the top two teams from East and West go to sub-district, district, and if they make it they go to state. Although Vernonia did not make it to district they won every game in the western league and really made an outstanding effort. Five out of the 6 varsity starters were seniors: Brooke Crowston, awarded the most valuable player, Sandy Cota, the team setter, Brenda Wuest, ace server, Robin Shafer, the team spirit, and Ronda Wood, always on the move. The rest of the team consisted of Karen Pitt, the only JR. starter, Sonia Aldrich, Debbie Sharar, and Shelly Crabtree, awarded the most improved player. J.V. included one senior, Kathy Bruers, her first time out for volleyball; and mostly sophomores and freshmen who all improved dramatically and showed great potential for varsity players. i Varsity League Results Knappa Warrenton Knappa Warrenton Knappa Warrenton WON WON WON WON WON WON 24 Volleyball

Homecoming ’81 Better Than Ever i Homecoming was a big success! Everyone got involved in either the class competition or the dressing up for Spirit Week.The days of Spirit Week were Punk Rock, Burnside, Career, Comic Strip, and Blue and Gold day. Those who didn’t participate in Spirit Week were sentenced to Kangaroo Court. Prizes were awarded for the best costume of each day, one to a guy and one to a girl. Another award given during the assembly went to Stuart Harkson for the sexiest legs on the football team. Besides dressing-up, most everyone was busy helping their class. All of the classes were busy decorating the halls, working on themes, skits, and painting their signs. The Juniors took most of the Class competition, which included the Hall Decoration, the Skit, and the Spirit. The Seniors won the Sign competition. Everyone that went to the corination had a great time. After the skits and the spirit competition, the Queen’s corination began. Ronda Wood was crowned Queen, and Jerry Budge, her escort, was crowned King. Princess Brooke Crowston was escorted by Prince Joe Batty. Princess Kurstyn Hostetler was escorted by Prince Steve Grady.
