The time served sitting in a desk watching and waiting with twent ' other desksitters may not be the common idea of a good time, but it is the idea of edu- cation. It is the experience of nurturing your mind with familiar faces and knowing what is expected. The routine what we easily waltz through, that makes our days easier to count, but hard to remember, structures our lives. AILEN COUNTY PUILIC LIBRA f ORT WAYNE, INDIANA :A. ;,- Tr .C Thus the world that is created out of this enclosed existence revolves. The routine that isolates each Wayne student also unites every student. The shuffling of papers that catches our lofty attention in the middle of the U.S. History experi- ence, the undulations of a new teacher trying to make room in our routines expands our abilities to reach the person sitting next to us. Every word digested in every paragraph that any person in these walls has ever read had stretched and fortified the bonds between man and the object that lies docile until we move them. The Learn- ing Game it is called. The rooms get hotter, so we sit outside the commons when we are done eating lunch and the wait at the bus stop becomes almost pleasant — we know summer is coming and another ending. The completion of a year of days built of ringing bells, familiar faces, and patterned rooms is a year fulfilled. We are sixteen or seventeen and school is our structure. We turn in textbooks and our lockers and wipe our brows. It is over — and we have won — The learn- ing game.

When the fall of the 1980-81 school year rolled around, thirty exhuberant speech team members burst into C-108 expecting to find their old friend Stook — nervously chewing on pens and threatening Todd Slater ' s life. Instead they found a small, quiet woman who barely smiled. THIS was the new speech coach. It has always been difficult to adjust to the new, and whispered moans and groans filtered through the group: You ' ve got to be kidding? It ' s not going to work! It won ' t be the same! This year wasn ' t the same; it couldn ' t be. The team missed Stock ' s precise organization, but found they were able to deal with the unorganized, scatter- brained Coach Lawrence. Ecnerwal (Lawrence spelled backwards), as she was later nicknamed, brought a new air of zaniness to the team with her south- ern drawls and mad addiction to Pepsi, and the team pulled through with another successful year. Spirit and unity were generated by President Joe Andorfer, Vice-President Sherry Boatright, and Secretan,--Trea- surer Barbara Lo ' d. . . GO ! ! ! Northrop was just one of the meets where team unity shone through when they received a third place team trophy. Sandy Huber captured a fifth place in Oratorical. The duo team of Ben Wer- ling and Heather Duemling placed eighth with their cutting The Fantas- tics. Many times the team was hampered by their lack of judges, thus they were disqualified from receiving team tro- phies. Mike Hudson led the team to victory many times by receiving four blue rib- bons and numerous other ribbons throughout the year. Joe Andorfer, Sherry Boatright, and Natalie Ellis also captured first place wins. Sectionals always seem to cause mas- sive frenzy and palpitations of the heart. Mide Hudson, Sherry Boatright, and Barb Andorfer successfully made it through the long hours of competition at Northrop. One week later they were found competing at the regional level. Only Mike Hudson advanced to the State Speech Contest where he placed eighth in Broadcasting. Pass the Pepsi guys ... its been a great year. (Topi The infamous Coach Lawrence.

Philip Lombard Vera Claythorne Lawrence Wargrave WiUiam BJore Emily Brent mW ' Wi%J 10 Ten Little Indians refers to the cluster of statuettes on the mantle piece of a weird country house on an island off the coast of Devon and to the nursery rhyme embossed above them, telling how each little Indian met his death un- til there was none. As the play opens eight assorted people have been invited to this island by an unknown host; even the two servants have not met the host. While the guests are assembled for cocktails prior to going in to dinner, a voice comes out of the air, accusing everyone present of murder — not the sort of murder on which a conviction can be got in the courts, but a murder just the same. And while they are ex- changing data on themselves and their host (who has sent word he will not be down until the next day) one of the ten little Indian statuettes topples off the mantlepiece and breaks. Immediately thereafter the igddy Oxonian chokes to death of cyanide of potassium which so- meone has dropped into his drink. One down and nine to go. Amy Holston, in her first major role on the Wayne stage, is to be com- plimented for an excellent performance as Vera Claythorne, the high strung governess accused of drowning one of her charges. Ben Werhng made a fantastic debut on the stage as Captain Philip Lombard. Werling handled with ease the many different emotions of his character — a task that is to be applauded for an amateur actor. Randy Correll, voted best actor last year, was cast as the mad, homicidal judge. Sir Lawrence Wargrave. His tremendous portrayal of his character surfaced and took control of the last scene. Chills swept the audience as Wargrave swung the noose above Vera ' s head all the while madly chorthng, I must have my hanging — my hanging!

The sport of soccer has really grown in the United States, and here at Wayne is no exception. The Wayne Soccer Team had another excellent season, but fell just short of its main goal, winning the city championship. Although this goal was not accomplished, many others were. The team played its home games at Wayne this year as more new teams were added to the league. An annual indoor winter tournament was started in which Wayne was runner-up. The team will keep the Bierbaum cup for another year with hopes that within a couple years soccer will become a recognized sport. Graduation hit the soccer team hard last season as they lost thirteen players, nine of whom played a good deal. Over the summer the team regrouped, and with the acquisition of three exchange students, the team was set to go. They showed their strength in the Indoor Tournament by beating Harding and Homestead and taking Luers to overtime before falling. The team then started a strenuous conditioning and skills pro- gram for its regular season. In two exhibition games Wayne took out Elmhurst and Snider easily. Every team in the city improved, mak- ing the competition very tough. ]im Griggs got Wayne ' s season rolling when he scored against Dwenger, but Wayne eventually lost the battle to the Saints. Wayne got its first victory against South Side and then won a key game against North Side in an action-packed shoot- out. Wayne then got revenge on Home- stead which had beaten them the year before knocking Wayne out of the city championships. Goalie John Wortley then got the first of three shutouts of the year against Nor- throp. Wayne easily took out Elmhurst and then shut out Snider and Harding to set up a showdown with Luers for the South Division championship. Wayne came out fired up and took a 1- lead on a goal by Doug Korte, a lead which held up until half. Luers experi- ence took over in the second half as they scored three times. Wayne threatened but could not score and had to settle for runner-up in the South Division with a 7-2 record. Al Castillo had a fine season as he SOCCER Dwenger South Side North Side (S.O.)

(Right] Al Cas- tillo lakes some practice shots before the Northside game. scored eight goals and had three assists to lead the team in scoring. Hans Kiel- stad and Bias Rodriguez each had five goals, and Grant Acker added four from his defensive position. Doug Korte and Jim Griggs were the team leaders in assists. Bronn Pfeiffer, Jeff McBride, Phil Hunkler, and Jim Griggs played a strong midfield all season. Doug Korte, Al Castillo, Hans Kjelstad, Bias Rodri- guez, and Pat Hunkler helped lead a very potent offense. The defense was outstanding as Coach Bierbaum taught everyone good positioning. Grant Acker and Ted Sorg clogged up the middle and Joey Dani. Bryon Kathrens, and Doug Swartz held out the outside attacks. Goalie John Wortley showed that he was the best in the South Division by making super saves every game. John Bierbaum was named Coach of the Year by all the Players. The future looks good for the team as it loses only six players. Next year Wayne will again be battling for the cit}- Championship, and with a lot of experi- ence coming back, it is easily within reach. .A. SOCCIN ' IT TO THE SAC (Top) Wayne ' s victorious soccer team.

FRENCH CLUB Kristie Harman Chris Essex Deanna Allison Natalie Ellis Mark Snyder Maricriss Gabriel Laura Leming Nancy Gouloff Greg Sanders Wilnam Fairbanks Carol Lowe The year begins as vigorous young bodies who burst through Wayne ' s doors ready to get involved with anything and everything. But somewhere between September and June that over-eager excitement gets lost in the shuffle and all of those many club sponsors who expectantly look forward to active club members are once again disappointed. The reasons are many. After school jobs keep people from getting involved, as does the lack of transportation to and from Wayne ' s remote location. These reasons, plus some others, contributed to the folding of many clubs. Computer Club, TV Repair Club, Industrial Arts Club and the Media Center Club were just a few that never quite left the ground this past year. In spite of these problems, there were some clubs who had ver ' successful years. Foreign languages were blessed with some of the more active members. FRENCH CLUB French Club was an active club led by Madame Musick. This club enjoyed such things as caroling at St. Joe hospital and partaking of the fine cuisine at the new French restaurant Du Jour, in downtown Fort Wayne. During their meetings held at school they discussed France ' s cultural lifes- tyles. GERMAN CLUB German Club appeared to be a restau- rant club. This club visited such restau- rants as Huntington ' s Heildelberg. the Phoenician whicn features Greek food, Casa D ' Angelo, and Fort Wayne ' s own Takoka of Japan. Could they be tr ing to reform the Berlin — Rome — Tokoyo Axis? But how does Athens fit into all of this? (Left) The annual foreign language Christmas caroling attracts guests from far and wide: even Santa came this year. CLUBS German club began their activities with a candy sale selling Reeses and Hershey Almond Bars and managed to raise a considerable sum. Mike Cock walked away with a camera for main- taining the top-seller position. LATIN CLUB Latin club became infamous for their Christmas skit that starred the equally infamous Todd Slater. Unlike the other foreign language clubs, Latin participated in competition. At the Latin Festival they had tremen- dous victories when they walked away with wins in four out of six categories. (Middle] Julie Altenburg and the foreign language teachers. Senior Merkler, Madame Musick. Citi- zen Mack, and Herr Shearer lead the Christmas carols.

Mike Hudson captured a first in Mythol- ogy and Roman History. Tim Sorg wrap- ped up the advanced level wins by receiving first places in Vocabulary and Grammar.

The dumb ball went into the gutter. We won! We won! These were just a few of the cries that would fill Hillcrest ' s bowling alley every Tuesday afternoon as Wayne ' s dedi- cated bowlers proceeded to increase their bowling skills. Mr. Roberts and Mr. Coleman were the two sponsors who found themselves responsible for this rowdy bunch of yahoos. Some of the top bowlers for the year were Susan Murrey, Ian Cummings, Art Norton, Tony Wilhelm, Gary Fox, Chuck King, Tim Quant and Kent Ellis. PHILOSOPHY Club Mr. Peters led this group of strange enthusiasts Into an indepth look at war — the result of war on the human race as well as the effect war has on veter- ans. The group saw such films as Big Red One, Apocalypse Now, and The Elephant Man. At one point in the year the club went to the Vietnam Vet Center and saw a documentary called Hearts and Minds. One of the valuable services this center offers is a counseling serv- ice. Anyone can come in and talk about their problems linked to any war. The group also found that you don ' t have to be a patriot to get help with your prob- lems. (Left) Linda and Diane Bochet serve up the traditional Latin feast to the quests at the Latin banquet in the school commons. CLUBS SOCIAL CLUB . This club proved to be more success- ful last year than this year, simply because of the student ' s lack of time to get involved. Early in the year the group was led on a jaunt in the brisk weather by Mrs. Lipp and Miss Kampschmidt to do a little cross coun- try. They alos visited the Chinese res- taurant The Mandarin and found the food delicious. AFRO-AMERICAN CLUB This club is very active. Mrs. Garvin directs these curious youths on many excursions — such as a trip to Chicago and roller skating parties. Once again, due to lack of organization, the Black Talent-Fashion show was cancelled, the second year in a row. (Middle Above) A good time was had by all at the Afro- American club roller-skating party.

The club is composed of A and B teams and the members challenge each other for positions. Jim Burchette held the number one position for the longest period of time, but by the time regionals rolled around Wayne King, IV2-2V2 at regionals, was joined by Bur- chette, 1-3; Mike Bliven, 1-3; and Dan Elder, 4-0. They scored well enough to advance to state. The B-team of Mike Jordan, John Willhoff, Rex Hambrock, and William Lewis received the best B- team trophy at regionals.

Student Council got things going with a fund raiser for the cit ' ' s hospitals. Council members collected donations from the Student Body and for each donation of twenty-five cents the donor received a candy cane. The success of this project was proven by the tremen- dous grand total of $2,100.00. Parkview, St. Joseph, and Lutheran hospitals were each granted $700.00. A few of the confusing events at the Christmas Assembly included the an- nual visit from Santa and the usual ar- ray of skits, ranging from the Latin Club to Pub to the ever-crazy Seniors. The announcing of the yearbook theme brought forth flashing lights and the throwing of candy and balloons into the screaming crowd. Our talented Wayne gymnasts displayed how their long, hard hours of practice had paid-off in a com- bination dance, warm-up routine. Perhaps the highlight of the Assembly was watching a pie sail into the face of Joe Andorfer. This infamous ritual is a favorite among the Student Body. In an attempt to show who had the most spirit, (or who had the most red and blue clothes) Junior class president Steve Ankenbruck challenged freshman class president Curtis Williams, and Senior class president Jerry Bowman, in turn, challenged Sophomore class president Jeff Summers to prove who truly had the most spirit. Even Student Council president Joe Andorfer, challenged the faculty to try and wear more red and blue than the students. Sad, but true, the Student Body lost to the faculty by a large percentage. I guess you could say they really put it in Joe ' s face. The assembly ended with a party during sixth period in the Commons. Originally it was to be a dance with a live band. The band was lined up and everything was in order until Wednes- day. On Wednesday the scheduled band broke up, and we were stuck with a dance, but no music. Panic was obvious- ly the next step, but then what? First, you rent a pair of large speakers for 25 dollars, then you get an eighty-five watt amplifier (courtesy of Historic Beaver Manor, in association with Bob Bodey) and you top it all off with Big Al ' s tape deck, what else? Then on Thursday night you rush Todd Cloy over to Historic Beaver Manor and tape an hour of contemporary rock and roll, thus, saving the day. Deck the Halls brought out the creativity in everyone as the halls filled with red and green. The traditional Christmas tree was the finishing touch in the Commons while snowflakes and silver bells hung from the ceilings and covered the walls. A TRIP TO SHANGRI-LA On May 10, 1981, the Junior class proudly opened the doors that led to the paradise of Shangri-La — the romantic and tranquil setting for the Junior-Sen- ior prom. The Junior class, led by president Steve Ankenbruck, took their sum of $3000 and began to lavishly invest their money into all of the luxuries that go into a prom. The decoration committee, led by Sandy Gerding and Lisa Roden- beck, spent $800 on plants alone. Mr. Hamm proved to be efficient and organized as he helped each of the com- mittee chairmen as they made precise, detailed decisions. Apparently the deci- sions made by each of the chairmen were favorable because of the success of the prom. The climax of the evening has always been the coronation of the prom, and this year was no different. Cassandra Shirmeyer and Jon Denney were crowned as the 1981 queen and king. The junior court was composed of San- dra Chapman, Denise Holloway, Benny Moore, and Mark Mungovan. The sen- ior court was composed of Toni Bade. Leanna Henderson, Sybil Pern, ' , Greg Trainer, Scott Steinforth, and Eric Chap- man. (Left| Queen Cassandra Shirmeyer and King |on Denny captivate the audience as they sit on their royal thrones.

SPIRIT TIED WITH UNITY You ' ve just executed your cheer perfectly in front of the entire student body, and you have the feehng of total success. The crowd is cheering wildly and rolls of colored toilet paper are flying from all directions. This is the glamorous side of a cheerleader ' s life; the only part peo- ple seem to see. All the hours put into their vivid posters and boisterous cheers are primarily ignored. This year ' s cheerleaders consisted of two varsity squads and one freshman squad. If cheering wasn ' t enough, the cheerleaders bustled about selling everything from cheese and sausage in the summer to hats, scarfs, and mittens during the winter. For the first time in ten years Wayne ' s students experienced the exhilaration of victory when their varsity basketball team swept through winning the sectional title, regional title and nearly winning .the semi- state title. This year ' s cheerleaders generated more school spirit than had ever been shown in previous years. Every Friday, for four weeks, these girls could be found creating new ideas and slogans for posters as the basketball team defeated one team after another. Ask any cheerleader and she ' ll probably tell you that all the hard work is worth it; the fun, laughter and good times, always outweigh the bad.

STUDENT COUNCIL After facing the turmoil of the year before, student council President Joe Andorfer had one big responsibility — not only did he have to be a leader of the student body, but he had to restore the student ' s faith and trust in the council. But that is easier said than done. Mrs. McDougle, the new dean of girls and the student council sponsor, had precise ways she liked business conducted. Then again, so did Joe. Many times neither would compromise, and for a time council was clashing with itself like oil and water, as it had the year before. Even so, such activities as Homecoming, conducted by Jerry Bowman, and the Bus Driver Appreciation Day, organized by Barb Andorfer, went over success- fully. Things seem to settle down as Decem- ber began, and council conducted its extremely successful Christmas Project. Starting out with the original goal of $1000, Student Council urged the stu- dent body to get involved by giving a candy cane for each quarter donation. Mr. Sawyer ' s homeroom challenged Mrs. Beerman ' s homeroom, and the race was on. Somehow or other, once started there was no stopping. By Dec. 19 the original goal of $1000 was surpassed as Student Council collected a whopping $2100. At the Christmas Assembly, Student Council proudly presented each of the area hospitals with $700. Lutheran Hos- pital was to use its money for merchan- dise. Parkview planned to remodel their teen lounge, and St. Joe planned to invest $700 on toys for its pediatrics ward. The spirit of giving spilled over into February when students once again donated their blood to the Red Cross for the second year in a row. This also proved to be successful as Wayne again topped Northrop, a school twice the size of Wayne, in blood donations. Barbara Andrew, voted best commit- tee chairman, spent many hours trying to make preparations for May Day. This is a day in which students select courses pertaining either to careers or general information relating to personal interest. From Day 1 Barbara faced many diffi- culties. In past years May Day has been just another skip day for many students. The administration did not want stu- dents to take advantage of this day that had been set aside for the students bene- fit. The argument against that had been but those students who do care enough to show up are the ones that really care and will get the most out of the day. Even so, the large number of days missed for snow and fog and the uncer- tainty as to its purpose caused Andrew to cancel it for this year. Late in the year an idea was brought up to hold May Day on Good Friday, because this is only a half day of school and students would not be missing valu- able class time. Well, it ' s a thought to fall back on for next year. Even though council faced tough obstacles at the start of the year, they surmounted them and got things done. The student exchanges with Harding and Bishop Luers proved to enlarge the insights of how other Student govern- ments were run. Student Council is also to be given credit for the spirit Post Regional Welcome at school after the Basketball Regional Championship.

Wayne ' s sis- ter schools built at the same time on opposite ends of the city, turned ten this year. In the intervening years Northrop grew to more than twice the size of Wayne, captured an early state basket- ball championship, and seemed to con- sistently get more and better press. Slowly it seemed that Wayne was no longer a sister, but at best a younger brother or at worst a second cousin. The fight for instant tradition, to compete with Northside and South Side, seemed to be won by Northrop and lost by Wayne. We became the school of the low pro- file, the ostrich of the SAC. And then we seemed to have it all. We beat both Northside and Southside in the basket- ball tournaments, and Northrop was not even involved. And we did it with a team that wasn ' t supposed to. And so we are respectable now. But of course we have been respectable for a long time; we just haven ' t noticed, and so neither has anyone else. That ' s what anniversaries aro for, to sit back and tack stock. Remember all the good times, giggle a little over some of the bad ones, look at some pictures, and remember that ten years ago there was nothing here at all. ' The tenth anni- versary is the paper one. Hey, Wayne, this one ' s for you. We have had our good times. We have had our state champions in track, girls and boys. We have had our SAC cham- Kions in tennis, basketball, and golf. We ave had our tournament champions in wrestling, gymnastics, volleyball, golf, and baseball. We have had a student at the national speech finals. We have had NCTE writing winners, science fair win- ners, cooking winners, building winners, and art winners. We have sent good stu- dents to good colleges, and these stu- dents have done well. We are not per- fect, but we have done well. We must always keep trying new and different things, but maybe it is time to stop trying to be what we are not. We ' re from Wayne and we ' re small. We ' re from Wayne and we ' re young. We ' re from Wayne and we ' re proud. Say it Joud. WE ' RE FROM WAYNE AKU y ERE ?RO JB. SAY IT LOVD. 31 Wayne ' s halls are normally dull, gray and monotonous, but during the time of sectional, regional, and semi-state basketball tournaments, the halls of Wayne became surprisingly bright, col- orful, and unpredictable. Students lived for Fridays — that was the day that you found Wayne ' s band marching through the halls followed by troops of spirited generals. And who could forget those rambunctious and voracious pep sessions? These came complete with at Jeasf 300 rolls of toilet paper, chants that made the roof shake, the tried and true Budweiser theme, and of course our dear-old Father Sav er. Deep down all of us knew that all of our victories had to end sometime; un- fortunately, the bitter taste of defeat came when we met up against the War- saw Tigers. Here our men fought a neck and neck batde and are not to be degraded for their effort. True, we didn ' t make it to state, but the 1980-81 Basketball Team went far- ther than any other basketball team in Wayne ' s ten year history. The momentary excitement wore off, and the posters came down, but one thing was still alive. The school had come together in a unity that had never before been experienced. Wayne has always had the reputation of being apathetic, but this year the Journal-Gazette printed that Wayne had generated the most spirit in Indiana. Hoosier Hysteria has died for the time being, but we gained something from it. School unity and one heck of a group of rowdies! (Below) Paper, Pies, and Pyramids.

CtLEBRp IC n Homecoming never varies, the idea is tradition — something to return to and share. Homecoming ' 81 was in- deed a tradition, from spirit week to losing our football game. Many dressed-up, cheered at the pep ses- sion, and danced until they couldn ' t move. Everyone carried the spirit of homecoming; some showed it more than others by buying pom-poms or being the loudest fan at the game. (No names will be mentioned). Spirit week started homecoming with people wearing sweats, funny hats, and red and blue. Unfortunately for Joe Andorfer, the faculty had more red and blue than the students, and a pie landed in hi.s face at the pep session. The new idea of a challenge of spirit made our tradi- tional homecoming special. Two days before the varsity took the field against Elmhurst, the Seniors bested the Juniors in a hard- fought Powder Puff game. But then, football is a collision sport, and on Friday, collided with Elmhurst. Everyone gathered to cheer the team to victory. All hoped we would break the jinx of losing every homecoming game if the school ' s history, but the Trojans beat us 24 to 0. Sybil Perry was crowned Homecoming queen, and everyone ooohhed and aaahhed as the fireworks burst against the night sky. To raise spirits and celebrate the homecoming court, many went to the dance after the game, a gteat way to end homecoming. t..

Ten years ago Wayne High School opened its doors and proclaimed itself a place that would train the future leaders of the world. As young, eager freshmen we trot- ted happily through the white halls thinking only of today. The future was far away and filled with infinite hope. Our confidence in tomorrow never wavered. But as tomorrow approaches, we feel uncertain. Shall we dare? The future seems to loom over us like a guillotine blade ready to plunge. Yet, forward we march. Feign strength if necessary, for it is impossible to re- main in the comforting familiarity of high school. It is our turn to go. The class of 1981 sends forth a group of people that will bring honor and pride to our past, joe Andorfer, an undeniable leader; Bobby Dillon, an already accomplished artist; and Eric Chapman, a skilled athlete; all grew from Wayne. Some of those among us who will go on to make great contributions have not yet started. They may never, but everyone pictured in the 1981 senior album possesses a seed that has the potential to grow into a bountiful tree. It only has to be coaxed. It is hard to tell at this moment what it is that we will remember and return to when we look back. The good times, the times we laughed and shared some undefinable, intangible thing. The bad times when we leaned upon one another for support and en- couragement. In none of our memories will we be alone, an alien looking through a window where happy people dance and sing — high school is one of the few places where friends are always around. Days are built around them, and good times are built because of them. When we leave this place, we may never again relive it. This is not something to regret, it is simply a fact. So hold tight to what you find precious in these pages. Wrap yourself around it, and let it warm you. As a sophomore or junior, impa- tience corrupts the present, as a senior anxiety clouds it. B ut as one looking back on a time of innocence and confidences, a sort of touching vulnerability reaches out, as once your hand reached out to openly, honestly grasp another ' s. The unknown always scares us, and nothing is more unknowable than tomorrow. Wayne will always be here to soothe us, a piece of securi- ty, a piece of the rock. If nothing else, we should always know where we ' ve been. 36 lames Reilly Joseph Reilly David Reith Donald Rencher Ernest Rencher Thomas Retzios Timothy Rice Michele Robinson Regina Rogers Dean Ross Kathy Ross Vicky Runyan Ellen Salway Lincoln Schneider Dawn Xchreiber Joseph Schuhler Regina Schultz Laurie Shepard Cassandra Shirmeyer Ross Shubert Gregory Simon Gregory Smith Shelly Smith David Snook Mark Snyder Calvin Soil Rhonda Sorg Ted Sorg Richard Sprinkle Nancy Stegmann Steven Steinforth Kimberly Stevens Sharon Stewart Kevin Tinkle Christoph Totton 45 (topi Todd Ames implies that Wayne says it all. right) Lori Zimmerman waits for the inevitable return o lufie Altenburg serve.

GRADS Loretta Chapman Karen Garrett Karen Hatch Michael Helland David Johnson Patrick Johnson Jeffer - Kimmel Tammy Ware Alfonso Castello There is dreaming, and there is Jiving. And Jiving is aJways better. In literar ' circles there is a thing called an objective correllative which is just another way of saying you have your head on right, of keeping on an even keel, of not flying off the handle at the drop of a hat. Hamlet didn ' t have one, and there are situations when someone loses his, and he copes with a situation by crying his eyes out. Graduation is one of these times, and if you thought you had a trauma when she told you she liked you, but not that way, just wait for what ' s in store. But the future, in its unpredictability, is just as exciting for the same reason. And thereby hangs a tale, or at least a couple hundred more words. Pain is growth. Pain makes demands on character, it stretches you, and when you slouch back from the brink of despair across a plain of sorrow and pain, you ' ll be a little wiser and a little older. The world breaks everyone, wrote Ernest Hemingway, and after- ward some are stronger in the broken places. All of them nice words, but what does it mean? And why are you reading this now? Because when faced with the choice of venturing to the big and fright- ening city, and staying sprawled on the couch watching the Flintstones, the mass of people will choose the latter: less stimulating. but a lot more reassuring. But while you might impress Alexander Haig, you can ' t fight world hunger with Flintstones ' quotations. And so there are few things more pathetic than a wasted life. Someone who has come through eighty years intact, un- Ln scathed and unsullied, is also probably a very boring person. But someone, no matter what their age, whose heart is scarred, has also felt unspeakable joy, and is ageless. They also wither who only stand and wait. Cp Df MICS THE SOUND OF MUSIC This year the artists of Wayne ' s Music Department have achieved success. They have shown us the talent, disci- phne, and loyalty a person needs to achieve his goals. During the year, the Sensation Singers won the Bluffton Street Fair Swing Choir Contest, where they performed a dazzling and unique performance. In addition, they placed ninth in the Watseka Invitational, four- teenth in the Luers-Midwest Invita- tional, and participated in approxi- mately thirty-five other programs. During the contest season each mem- ber of the Singers practiced six to nine hours a week after school. Usually the first question a person would ask a Singer is: Why would anyone want to put in so much time? Self-satisfaction and the excitement is the way Julie Altenburg, one of the student directors of the Singers, would answer the question. One of the disadvantages of the choir is its cost. Being a member requires a lot of money, as the Music Department cannot afford to pay for everything. Each member pays for a new swing choir outfit, choreography (Top, left to right) Grady Mendenhall and Scott Dove discuss tneir marching routines. Mr. Haigh directs the orchestra.

(if you) really entertain them, the audience, all the cost, hard work, and time are repaid in full . . . (when) the audience and the crowds cheer you on, Scott Dove stated. Also during this year, the marching band was really spirited. It consisted of about one-hundred members including the flags, rifles, and it ' s two featured solo trumpeters. Jack McCartney and Rich- ard Pennell. It was directed by two very skilled Drum Majors, senior, Scott Dove and, junior, Grady Mendenhall. Despite everything too many people have harshly criticized the band, but mem- bers were dedicated, competitive, and had more spirit than any year before. Even though this year ' s marching band did not reach their destination, of cap- turing the Northern Indiana School Band, Orchestra, and ' Vocal Association (NISBOVA) Marching Band Contest Title, they should be proud since they are the best band Wayne has produced.

For the SAC schedule he would rely on Bill Stadler, Ted Johnston, and Brian Rider, his top three singles players, to play steadily and stay healthy while developing doubles strength. The doubles strength would be necessary ' for the second strategy ' . Winning at section- als meant beating Homestead and to do so meant winning two doubles matches. The first strategy worked like a charm. The netmen won the SAC for the second straight year on the way to their first ever undefeated season. The second strategy, though sound, fell one match short for the second straight year, as the Generals were again robbed of a proba- ble trip to the state meet by the hated Spartans. The big surprise in the early going was TENNIS Wayne Opp Bellmont 4 1 Huntington 4 1 Whitko 4 1 South Side 5 Northrop 4 1 Snider 3 2 Bluffton 3 2 Concordia 3 2 North Side 5 South Adams 4 1 Elmhurst 5 Dwenger 4 1 C.

S tadler and Johnston won easily at first and second singles, and a very good Concordia, first doubles team of Gary Hiatt and David Hatlem. The problem was that both third singles Brian Rider and second doubles Doug Klopfenstein and Brent Parker were struggling. Rider, who had scored a must point against Snider in a close 3-2 victory for the netmen, fought back three times from large deficits only to have a ques- tionable call of a fine serve turn the tide against him. Klopfenstein and Parker lost their first set and were down 1-3 in the second when they steadied and fought back to win at 6-4. It all seemed for nought as they again went down 1-3 in the third set, but this time they roared back to win the last five games nd the match. It was not over yet; however, as a tough Harding squad made Wayne go to the well one more time. Stadler again won easily, but in a pre-sectional expe- riement Johnston and Rider were moved to doubles where they would also play against Homestead. Parker and Johnston won 6-4, 6-3, but Rider and Klopfenstein struggled from the outset. They finally won the first set in a tie-breaker and the first game of the second set, but they dropped six straight games setting the stage for another all important third set. The duo reached deep and won the first five games of the last set and seemed to be cruising. Harding rallied for two and seemed to begetting back in the match, but Rider served out the set, the match and the SAC Championship. Wayne went on to win its last two matches for an undefeated season. And then, once again came Homestead. Sawyer ' s strategy worked as planned. Wayne won both doubles matches and lost second and third singles, leaving what would surely be the sectional championship up to Stadler and another mano-a-mano clash with Joey Christoff of the Spartans. Both players enjoy national ranking and are very evenly matched. Stadler took the lead at 4-3 in the first set and all seemed possible, but Christoff used his superior strength to win in two sets. Senior Ted Johnston capped a fine four year career at Wayne with a spar- kling 18-1 record, best on the team. Fel- low senior, but newcomer to the team. Brent Parker added an 11-4 record. Sophomore Bill Stadler had a fine 17-2 record, but will not be back as he is moving to Louisiana. Juniors Brian Rider, 16-3; Doug Klopfenstein, 13-6; and improving sophomore David Hat- lem will provide a strong nucleus for next vear. TENNIS TEAM |1 to r) Kneeling: B. Rider. T. |ohn- ston, B.

(4-0-1 9th grade, 7-0 10th grade) one would have to ex- pect a victorious record. Unfortunately, the expectations in this year ' s team were extinguished, and the team ended with a 2-8 season. The annual Jamboree was a dogfight against the Bruins of Northrup as well as Elmhurst. The fight ended with neither team scoring. The Generals looked and acted as if a positive season was in the making. In the opening game of the season, the Generals literally fumbled away the game. As each member of the backfield coughed up the ball at least once. The final score was 20-6. A week later, the team made a very respectable stand against 5th ranked South Bent St. Joe. The Generals show- ed tremendous character as they came back in the final quarter to close the game at 28-22. In the next four games the team played like a yo-yo. One quarter the team was up and scoring, but the next they were down and being scored upon. In this span, the Generals fell to defeat in three of the four games. In probably the most exc iting game of the season, Wayne beat South Side in overtime, 28-20. The team tied the score with just seconds left in the game. In the exciting overtime, the offense quickly plugged the ball over the goal line in just three downs. QB John Warren ran the ball for the win- ning touchdown. Next came South ' s turn to try to score, but the mighty defense came alive and stopped them cold. The last three games were disap- pointing for the Generals. Especially Homecoming. It was in keeping with the now ten year tradition that Wayne was kept from winning a Homecoming game. The defeat was handed to the Generals by a winless Elmhurst team, losing by 24 points. The year ' s team was a real fighter and never once gave up. All of the team members showed a great deal of character and their record did not reflect the fight that they gave. Even though the team did not do well, many individuals obtained recognition in the SAC. Eric Chap- man was the second leading rusher with 1030 total yards for a 5.6 yard average per carry. John Warren ' s 995 passing yards and seven touchdowns made him fourth in the SAC. John Fanning was the leading receiver in the SAC with 33 catches for five touchdowns and 634 yards, a 19.2 yard average per reception. Jeff Bur- ton was the sixth leading receiver with 17 catches for 314 yards and four touchdowns. Wayne ' s team offense was third in the SAC with 2612 total yards, 1617 yards rushing and 995 yards passing, for an average of 261 yards per game. VARSITY FOOTBALL Wavne Opp Jav County 6 20 S.B.

From there on, the team started to (Counterclockwise From Below) Dave Landon dashes for the open field. Coaches Mendenhall and Perkins discuss strateg ' with Mark Mungo- van.

The defense, headed by Mark Mungovan and Paul Alter, cracked down on all offenders. Mark, playing defensive end, earned the most tackles on the team. While Paul, head of the defensive backfield, gave receivers all the trouble they could handle. The offense was made up of many promising athletes for the future. Wayne ' s triple option was a successful aspect. QB Mark Mungoven could either hand off to fullback Mike Basinski or pitch to leading scorer Terry Clark. He could even keep the ball and run upfield. Wayne reserves, not noted for the passing offense, displayed a fine aer- ial attack. The main receivers were Doug Swartz, Ben Werling, Chris Adams (when not playing Varsity), and Craig Sampson. Giving Mungoven time to pick his receivers were linemen Rick Moore, Mike Roush, and Mike Fink. The Generals defeated south division contenders Elmhurst, South Side, and Harding. They also defeated Northrop and Marion. In the best game of the year the Gen- erals lost to undefeated Bishop Luers. The game was full of hard hitting and an impressive display of ball control. If the reserves play with this much skill next year on the varsity level, there should be a SAC title at Wayne. The freshman team also gave Wayne ootball a promising outlook for the next hree years. Under the guidance of new :oach Roger Birr and assistants Dave enline and Neal Schoenle the team 3nded its learning season at 2-4. The team had many individuals who A ' ill find themselves playing at the Var- ;it - level. At QB, Andy Burton, compiled 300 yards rushing and 200 more in the air. Burton was also the leaking tackier :or the defense. When Burton had to ive the ball off, it was usually to tail- DBck Lonnie Morton. Lonnie rushed for 360 yards and was a good hard hitting linebacker. For the aerial attack, Kurt Roe was the favorite target. The hook and go was the most successful pass. The freshman team ' s big man was center and defensive lineman Rick Thompson. As the old saying goes, it takes the whole team to win a football game. Coach Birr stressed this very much and, for the most part, all 24 team members contributed. Coach Birr recalls two high points in the season. First, was the rain drenched game against South Side. He said, The team never gave up and I am really proud of them. The Generals won the game in overtime. The second was when he watched four of his team members get promoted to the reserve level in the last game of the season.

Wayne ' s 1980 boys Cross Country team didn ' t have the best record of any harrier team, but was by far the best team in the histon, ' of Wayne. The Gen- eral team not only made it out of section- als, which had only been done once before in Wayne ' s ten years of existance, but bulled their way to the state meet. The Generals were led by junior Ken Thomas who was phenominal through- out the entire season. Thomas placed first in five of fifteen races including sectionals — Wayne ' s first individual sectional champion. Thomas also ran the 3.1 mile course in seventeen minutes or less in twelve of the fifteen races. Tim Regenold and Tom Adams traded off the number two spot most of the year with Tim Burton. Jeff Regenold, Loren Bunnell, and Matt Holbrook filled in the top seven spots. Pat Hunkler and Brian Konger were remaining two varsity run- ners. Freshmen Phil Hunkler, Doug Bailey, sophomores Terry Lundquist, Dean Mad Dog Wickliffe, and junior Greg Borkowski led the Generals reserve team to a 13-4 record. Two of the varsity team ' s three losses were to the third and seventh ranked teams in the state. Wayne ' s most con- vincing wins were 15-44, 16-44, and 16- 47 over Huntington North, Bluffton and Elmhurst, respectively. The S.A.C. meet was the start of Wayne ' s so-called upsets. The General runners were picked to be distant fifth; but after the meet was over. Nelson Detwiler ' s crew finished in a solid third place, paced by Ken Thomas ' eighth and Tom Adams ' tenth place finish. The Generals fifth place finish in the Manchester Invitational varsity open race was also the best in Wayne ' s his- tory. Ken Thomas, Tom Adams, and Tim Regenold were the place winners; soph- omore Matt Holbrook took tenth in the fresh| m ' n-sophomore race. The season enden with the Generals running in a pack ami running strong.

Wayne upset five rated teams, including Norwell (who defeated Wayne in their two previous encounters) to end up in fourth place and gain a berth to the state meet in Indianapolis. There were sixteen teams left alive for the title, and Wayne, who hadn ' t been rated in the top twenty teams all year long, was one of the sixteen. Once again Ken Thomas led the way for the Generals, with a 25th place in a school record time of 15:25. Thomas was also named to the all-state team.

There is ven, ' little regular competition, and season records are not kept. There is competition, and there are regional and state meets. This year Wayne proved that, though ever - body else may just be getting started, its harriers are already off and running. With only two seniors on the team, the young Generals raced to a fourth place at regionals and a seventeenth at state. Cheri Heller led the Wayne at both meets, coming in twelfth at regionals and 23rd at state (out of 201 runners] with a time of 11:57 over the 1.9 mile course. Second at both meets was the ever-pres- GAVE ' EM ent Sybil Perry. When -ou ' ve said Sybil; N ' ou ' ve said track at Wa ' ne o ' er the past four years. Crosscountry was no differ- ent, as Sybil placed 19th at regionals and 85th at state for valuable points. Freshman Lana Lahman, an eighth- grade half-mile city champion, was Wayne ' s third finisher at state in 87th place, just two seconds behind Perry, and Wayne ' s fifth finisher at regionals in 45th place. HELLER Beck ' Hardy, also an eighth grade mid- dle distance champion, was 93rd at state and 43rd at regionals. Y ' onne Lewis. Wayne ' s third fastest runner at regionals with a 33rd place, came in 112th at state to round out Wayne ' s scoring. With such a young team, things can only get better for coach Bill Blosser. Runners of the quality of Sybil and Robin Johnson, the other graduating senior on the team, will always be missed, but the future looks bright. iClockvvise From Belovv| Wayne ' s number iine iind two runners.

The young team, with only two seniors, faced a tough and demand- ing schedule, but they met the challenge head-on as they won seven of their first eight games. In the opening match of the season, Wayne defeated Homestead, 15-13 and 15-8, Wayne then breezed past South Adams by scores of 15-6 and 15-10. The next five matches, however, weren ' t as easy, as all five matches were forced into a third, tiebreaking game. The Gen- erals were triumphant in all but the Bell- mont tiebreaker. In the Carroll match, Wayne won the first game, 15-11, then lost 9-15, in the second, but then came back to win the third, 15-3. Wayne then went on to beat Woodlan, lifting Wayne ' s record to five straight wins. Wayne boosted its winning streak to six games by narrowly defeating New Haven. The Generals were stunned in the first game when the Bulldogs handed them a 4-15 defeat. After Coach Wilkerson got them pepped up, the girls came back to win the second and third games, 15-13, and 15-10. When Wayne met Bellmont, Wayne met its match. In the first game the Gen- erals slipped past the Braves, 16-14. In the second game, Wayne had an 11-6 lead when disaster struck — the Braves went on the warpath and scalped nine straight points to win 11-15. There was no stopping Bellmont as they the Braves went on to win the third game, another close one, 13-15. After beating both Elmhurst and Whitko, the bang that started the season seemed to fizzle out for the volleyball team, losing six in a row. When playing the Harding Hawks, the Generals could only manage one point in the first game. But then, the team started to give a performance similar to that of the begin- ning of the season. The bang that had fizzled out seemed to rekindle when the Generals forged ahead to win all but one of their six remaining matches. Only two players, Julie Altenburg and Lori Zim- merman, will have graduated so, although both contributed greatly. Coach Wilkerson has good reason to look forward to an excellent season next year.

Something was definitely stirring inside the doors of the Wayne gymna- sium in mid-October. Something explo- sive. Something . . . awesome. The var- sity basketball team had somehow changed during the off season. Though veterans Tracy Guy and Kevin Wright had left for college, the Generals still had three of the previous season ' s start- ing five returning for action. Yet, some- how, this team was different. The Gen- erals had transformed themselves from the role of a season-spoiler to an impres- sive and overpowering basketball team — emphasis on team. It was team play accompanied with experience and patience that provided the Generals with their 15-6 regular sea- son record and one of their best finishes ever. It was team play that dished off a total of 471 assists and averaged 64 points per game. It was team play that de-throned the number one team in the state, and it was team play that gave the Generals their first regional champion- ship in the 10 year histon, ' of Wayne. The season began normally with vic- tories over Bellmont and Snider but then the Generals ran into a tough Jay County team. After a valiant, last second attempt, the Generals lost to the Patriots: 47-49. This was to be the only major upset loss of the season for the Generals. Next, came two important victories over two highly-regarded teams: the Huntington North Vikings and the Mun- cie Central Bearcats. The Vikings were rated number one in the area and the Bearcats were actually rated 7th in the entire country in a pre-season poll. But the Generals defeated both teams hand- ily — by 13 and 14 points respectively. This was an obvious confidence builder, but the Generals were going to need more than confidence to win against their next two opponents. To have to face the 10th ranked South Side Archers and then the 7th ranked Anderson Indians the following night is, by no means, a weekend to look forward to. The Generals, however, performed with poise and patience and lost by only slight margins both times: 53-56 to South Side, and 57-64 to Anderson. At this time in the season the Generals were playing at a normal pace — noth- ing overpowering had yet been see on the statistic sheets nor by the Wayne fans, but the potential was always there and that potential almost walked away with the S.A.C. Tournament crown — almost. The Tournament began for the Gener- als with a frightening overtime victory over the Bishop Luers Knights, but once the Generals had settled down, they had little trouble in defeating the Bishop Dwenger Saints en route to the champi- onship game against the South Side Archers. This game was much closer than the previous game during the year, but once again the Generals wound up on the short end of the score against the Archers, losing 47-49. From the tournament it was back to Bishop Dwenger and the Generals over- whelmed the Saints by 18 points: 71-53. Now the Generals had reached the peak of their season — the toughest weekend to tackle the third ranked Northside Redskins on Friday and then the num- ber one team in the state — the Marion Giants on Saturday. The Generals actu- ally led at the half against Northside, but then slowly let the lead dwindle and lost to the Redskins by 13: 65-78. Then, it was on to Marion. 7,000 Marion fans showed up hoping to see their Giants demolish the Generals — but the 7,000 fans went home unhappy — to say the least. The Generals victory was the Giants ' first loss of the season and was only the 4th time in ten years that the Giants had lost at home. The Generals had become Giant killers. From Marion it was back to Fort Wayne for a stretch of 5 games against the remaining S.A.C. foes: Concordia, Northrop, Harding. Bishop Luers. and Elmhurst. iK yii ...ON ALL PARADES Concordia and Northrop fell admira- bly to the Generals by 5 and 9 points respectively. Then came Harding. At this point, the Generals were ranked 17th in the state and Harding was the only obstacle left — except for Home- stead — for the Generals to overcome. The Generals; however, fell one point short: 68-69 in overtime to the Hawks and lost their state ranking for good. Bishop Luers and Elmhurst proved to be easy victories, and the Generals next opponent, Blackford, was even easier — the Generals winning by 35 points. Her- itage provided a valiant effort — losing by 10, and then it was Homestead. It was the last game of the year, but in several ways it was a first. It was the Spartans first loss of the year — they were 20-0 previously. It was also the beginning of something that had been missing at Wayne for a long time — spirit — real spirit. Out of nowhere — from everywhere — students, parents, and faculty — all had rallied around the Generals.

The Generals had finally gained what they had needed the entire season — a sixth man — the fans. The Home- stead game went into overtime — which only hightened the excitement of the Wayne fans. Wayne finally prevailed; 65-63, and an exciting ending to an even more exciting season. It was a season of triumph and of rec- ognition for the Generals — especially for the 7 graduating seniors who left Wayne with pride and in a blaze of glory as champions. It was an outstanding year due to a solid team effort, and noth- ing else could better explain the Gener- als than ' ■the Team. .

Even the row- diest fans in Indiana weren ' t com- pletely ready. But the Wayne Generals were very ready — ready to take the Coliseum by storm, and they did. The fans provided the thunder and the men on the court provided the lightening. The team that fell to the mercy of the Northside Redskins during the regular season, lashed out and rained on the Redskins ' parade. When the clouds cleared, the sun was shining brightly on the Wayne Generals — for they had just destroyed the hopes of the sixth ranked Northside Redskins. Nothing bad can be said of the Retlskins who were favorites to win the Fort Wayne Regional — Wayne just over- whelmed them. It wasn ' t just the regular starting five who were the heroes. The bench played a big part in the Generals ' victory. Eric Thomas, Dennis Duncan, and Jerry Bowman all contributed both offensively and defensively enroute to a 77-64 stomping — a thirteen point mar- gin — exactly what the Redskins had beaten the Generals by during the regu- lar season. This victory was true revenge. (Clockwise From Right) Eric Chapman caps a fast break with an easy lay-in. Dennis Duncan plays tight D to help shut down Northside. THE REGIONAL CHAMPION GENERALS.

There were to the bigger and better games in the tournament and the Generals ' next test were the Trojans of Elmhurst. The Generals had no trouble earlier in the year when the two teams had met, the Generals winning by 24 points, but this time it was different. The Trojans kept the game close, always within eight to ten points, until the fourth quarter when they made a run at the Generals. Only quick offensive retaliations saved the victory for Wayne and the right to play South Side for the sectional cham- pionship. It was an ideal match-up, Wayne and South for the Fort Wayne Sectional I Championship. The Wayne-South Rivalry is one of fierce competition and so far, the Generals had lost five in a row (over two years) to the Archers, but that streak would end there. The Gener- als contained the Archers and Ail- American John Flowers and took the victory at 36-34. It was the lowest scoring championship game since 1947. Obvi- ously it wasn ' t an offensive game, but there was still dynamic playing from both teams. It went right down to the wire, where Eric Chapman sank two free throws, and the Generals cut down the nets for the first time since 1977 — Sectional Champions! Next, it was regionals and the Dekalb Barons. By then, the halls at Wayne were filled with posters and streamers of red and blue. Fridays at school consisted of decking the halls, pep sessions, and deafening chants from ever ' corridor. The Barons brought thousands of fans to the coliseum and they were very loud. But Wayne outclassed them in the stands as well as on the court as the Generals rolled to a 64-51 victory. Eric Thomas came off the bench to spark the Generals as he rejected several Baron attempts and the highly acclaimed out- side shooting of the Barons had stopped abruptly. Although the Generals got into early foul trouble, they still managed to comfortably set the Barons aside and now only Concordia stood between them and the regional championship. Concordia, or rather the Cinderella Cadets, entered the tournament with a measly four wins as compared to their fifteen losses. Nonetheless, the Cadets played well and kept the game close, until suddenly, the Generals exploded for eleven unanswered points and the Cinderella Cadets turned back into pumpkins as the Generals romped to a 62-36 victory for the regional champion- ship. Kendrick Boyd had his first 20- point game of the season but his pres- ence was equally felt on the defensive end of the court. Benny Moore, through and through, put on a show that would make Julius Erving jealous. Benny had scored 107 points in the first five tourna- ment games, an outstanding accomplish- ment for any player. The Generals had now done what no other Wayne team could do. The Gener- als were members of the fimal sweet sixteen. The Warsaw Tigers were next on the ladder, but the Tigers proved to be the General ' s Warterloo. Wayne jumped out to a 14-1 lead early in the game and it appeared as if the victory was in hand but the Tigers weren ' t about ready to roll over and die. They forged ahead and took the lead at 24-23. The lead then changed hands several times but the final margin was decided with no time left on the clock. The Generals lost the lead to free throws but they still had a chance when Eric Sebo went to the free throw line shooting Iwo. Almost every- one in the Coliseum thought he was shooting the one-plus bonus (one-plus- bonus implies that if the player makes the first free throw he gets another, but if he misses the first, the ball is playable). When Sebo missed his first freethrow Eric Chapman grabbed the rebound and put up a 60 foot miracle shot — that went in! The official however ruled against the shot and Sebo sank his next free throw — sealing the victory for Warsaw. The tournament had ended for the Generals, but it was a tournament to remember. Upset Victories over North and South, and Wayne ' s first Regional Basketball Championship. The tourna- ment maddness capped off a fine regu- lar season performance and when the uniforms had been packed away and the year was finally over, the Generals — every member of the team — had proven themselves worthy of the name Champion. ft RESERVE TEAM — Kneeling: D.

One of these loses was a heartbreaking three point overtime defeat at the hands of Northrop, and three others came during a short early season slump. In the holiday tournament the Gener- als got off to a fast start by humbling the host Knights of Bishop Luers by 26 points. Tim Burton led the reserves with 18 points and six assists, and Richard Hogue pulled down ten rebounds. The team shot an excellent 507f from the field and Luers was never really in the game. The championship game against the Harding Hawks was not so easy, though the Generals began as they had against the Knights and held a sizable lead at half time. Tbe second half; how- ever, belonged to the Hawks. They nar- rowed the lead to ten at the three quar- ter mark and threatened to steal the game in the closing minutes. The reserves were able to reassert enough control to hold on to a three point margin and the tour- nament championship. The sophomore basketball team drop- ped its last two games, but still managed a 5-5 record on the season. Standouts for the team this year were center Mark Masterson and forwards |obnny Cannon and Mike Paige. Bronn Pfeiffer, Chris Olson, and John Ormiston also made valuable contributions. The freshman basketball team won its last two games of the season and brought its record to 5-9. Mike Mungovan led the team in scoring with over ten points per game. The guard combination of Mike Colwell and Rick Melton controlled the floor for the Generals on both offense and defense. Forwards Lonnie Morton and Mark Cannon, as well as Robbie Russell, Bill Hanford, Martin Edwards and )im Letner rounded out the team. IClockwise From Below) Tim Burton flies into a lay-up.

Lori Good and April Davenport were the standouts as expected with Lori getting off to an especially good start. A tough Bishop Luers squad ended the General ' s undefeated string, however, by holding Good to a merely good game and by blanking Davenport.

Other scoring leaders were Lori Good who scored a total of 194 points for a 9.7 points per game average, Kim Zimske who scored 182 points and was 50 for 77 at the free throw line. Darlene Bush had 82 points followed by [ackie Cooper who scored 61 points. The reserves capped an 8 — 8 season with two victories in the reserve tourna- ment. They were paced by Cheryl Essec, Bobbetfe Henderson, and Tammy Leaky. The freshman girls were paced by Kathy O ' Reilly, who was called up to the varsity at mid-season, Jennie Austin and |udy Jordan.

Once again the General grapplers posted a 5 win 7 loss season record. The Generals placed third in the Logansport tourney and placed a strong second at the Goshen Tourney, but the team under the guidance of head coach Brett Lucas and assisted coach Bill Ragle were una- ble to defend their fourth straight sec- tional championship, falling to a disap- pointing third place finish. The Generals only managed three sectional champs; team captain Loren Bunnell at 112, outstanding sophomore Doug Brewer at 105, and a newcomer to the General wrestling squad, Brian Mor- gan, at 185. Lon Bradfield, 138, captured a second along with Brian Konger at 145, John Wortley at 155, and freshman Ken Keesler at 98. Thus enabling the Generals to send seven wrestlers into regional competition. The Generals made up for the disap- pointing sectional by placing third over- all in regionals. Once again Loren Bun- nell, Doug Brewer, and Brian Morgan were champs in their respective weight classes. These three, along with Lon Bradfield, who placed second went on to semi-state competition. The squad still had three undefeated wrestlers after semi-state. Once again, Loren Bunnell, Doug Brewer, and Brian Morgan won champ- ionship honors. The team finished third overall. The chance for a state championship title never looked better for Wayne as the undefeated trio headed for Indian- apolis. All three wrestlers did an out- standing job. Bunnell and Brewer brought home third place trophies. Both were beaten by the eventual state cham- pions. The Generals finished a very respectable sixth place in the state tour- nament. Loren Bunnell finished his outstand- ing season with a 26-1-0 mark. Loren was the Goshen Tourney champion, as well as sectional, regional, and semi- state champion. He also placed third at the state tourney. Loren was selected for all-S.A.C. honors, not to mention his record for the most career wins at Wayne with 73. Doug Brewer had a fine year with a season record of 27-1-0. Doug took the Logansport and Goshen Tourney cham- pionships. Doug also claimed sectional, regional, semi-state champions, and a third place finish at the state tourna- ment. Doug was also named All-S.A.C. for his fine performance. Brian Morgan also turned in fine cre- dentials with his impressive 24-1-0 record. Brian added the Logansport and Goshen Tournaments, sectional, regional, and semi-state competition to his championship list. Brian too, was selected for All-S.A.C. Lon Bradfield was selected All-S.A.C. and captured the Logansport and Goshen Tournaments to finish out a fine season with 18-5-0 record. Jeff Summers added the Logansport and Goshen Tour- nament to his list of wins as did Brian Konger. The Generals will have nine returning lettermen next year. Coach Lucas is cer- tainly looking forward to another fine season. (Left) Brian Konger rides an opponent to a victory WRESTLING TEAM |1 to r| Front: D. Brewer, L, Bunnell, J. Summers, P. Holman, M.

One of the VarsitN ' hopefuls for next year will be sophomore Steve Snyder, who posted a 6-2 season record at the 138 lb. class. Sophomore Mike Basinski who was tossed back and forth from reserve to Varsity posted a 5-5 record at 155 lb. class, Basinski also placed fourth in the Snider Tourney. Tim Gouloff who also wrestled some varsity at the 98 lb. class posted a 2-6 season record. Troy Miller looks as if he may fill a varsity position next year even though he recorded a 1-5-1 season. The reserves may not have had an outstanding season, but the effort they gave shows their support for the wres- tling team. Next year the wrestling team will be as good as the reserves and remaining Varsity can make it. (Left) Ken Keesler traps his opponent with the aid of a half-nelson.

Performing in the shadow of Wayne ' s own version of Hoosier Hysteria, this year ' s Gymnastics team had its best sea- son ever. The gymnasts were first in sec- tionals, second in regionals, and an SAC championship escaped them by the oh- so-sHm margin of .05 of a point. As the season began. Coach Sue Beer- man knew she would have a good team, but she never dreamed that the gym- nasts would have such a spectacular sea- son. A string of six straight victories with ever increasing scores and a second place at the Harding Invitational caused everyone to dream dreams and see visions. All of a sudden the year-round diet program and weight training, that had already made the team one of the slen- derest in the city, was paying off in vic- tories and SAC title hopes. Even two, close, two-point losses to Northrop and Snider did not dim the team ' s hopes, for the gymnasts were playing together as a team. Coach Beerman noted that this was the best team Wayne had had. While the optional team was heading toward its inevitable, season-ending show down with North Side, the inter- mediate team was amassing a perfect record. Perfect that is until they met Sni- der and some unfortunate judging. Cindy Sorg, a top three finisher all year on the beam, was the only contestant not to fall off the beam during her routine and seemed assured of a first place fin- ish. It was not to be. Cindy was the vic- tim of what seemed like a parady of Eastern-bloc Olympic judging as she did not even place, and an undefeated inter- mediate season was not to be. For the optional team there was, finally, the pitched battle with the power-house Redskins. North had been everybody ' s pick to run away with the SAC, but they had to beat a determined Wayne squad to fulfill the promise. They did so but by the slimmest of margins. Only .05 of a point separated the Wayne gymnasts from a SAC crown. They had scored the highest total of any Wayne optional team ever, but had fallen short by half of the penalty assessed for a slightly bent leg, a .1 of a point penalty. Back to back, season ending losses can shatter the confidence of a group of indi- viduals, but a team can rebound. And rebound Wayne did. Wayne won its Sectional with every gymnast advancing to Regionals, the optional gymnasts as a team and the intermediates individually. Junior co-captain Terri Bade led the team with firsts on the uneven bars and in the floor exercise, a third in the vault, and a fourth on the beam enroute to the individual all-around championship. Senior co-captain, Sybil Perry, garnered a second on the vault, and only an unfortunate slip kept her from placing on the uneven bars. Cindy Sorg, Kelly Greene, and Lisa Arnold were Individual blue ribbon winners on the intermediate team. The performances of Lisa Ames and Stepha- nie Mileff were good enough for second place finishes and tickets to join their teammates at regionals. Bade again led the team at regionals to a second place finish. She placed first on the vault, second in floor exercise, and third all-around to advance to state in all three categories. Terri was joined at state by Kelly Greene and Sybil Perry in the vault. Lisa Arnold also made the trip as an alternate. Spectacular years in athletics are often followed by rebuilding years, as young, inexperienced underclasswomen must fill in for graduating stars. Such will not be the case, however, at Wayne. Only Sybil Perry will graduate, and the future looks rosy.

The Boys Track Team survived fairly well during the 1981 season — finishing with a 5-6 record (excluding relays) and placing fourth in Sectionals, Fort Wayne, as usual, had many top-ranked teams, the competition was fierce, but though there were some disappoint- ments, there were also some bright spots. Although no one on the team was able to make the trip to the state meet, Ken Thomas shone brightly for the Gen- erals as he captured both the SAC and Sectional crowns in the 800 meter run, the latter of which he ran in record time. Ken, who will be returning next year as a senior, wasn ' t even expected to run in the 800 at the start of the season, but soon proved himself to be one of the best in the area in that event. AN ALMOST SEASON ■ The season was hard fought — against the hkes of South Side (runner-up at state), Snider, and Northrop. The Nor- throp Meet was won by the Bruins b - a mere 5 point margin. Traditionally, the General track team peaks near sec- tionals, so the early season scores do not reflect the power of the team. This year was no exception. When the end of the season approached, the Generals began to turn in some dynamic times. Ken Thomas, Ken Boyd, Doug Brewer, Tim and Jeff Regenold all began to peak, and the Generals, were a team to be reckoned with. The Generals finished 3rd in the Lime Cit ' Relays, 5th in the SAC Meet, and then 4th in the Dayton Invitational (where they didn ' t run dashes, they ran flashes). Then came Sectionals. Accompanying Ken Thomas ' victory in the 800 was the 1600 m. relay team of Keith Bynum. Ken Thomas (again |. Tim Burton, and Kendrick Boyd which fin- ished second. Doug Brewer finished 4th in the 100 m. dash and Tim Regenold also finished 4th in the 1600 m. run. as well as finishing 5th in the 800 m. run. Kendrick Boyd placed fifth in the 400 and Calvin Walker finished 6th in the discus. In Regionals, the Generals didn ' t fare so well, and no one made the trip to the state meet in Indianapolis. Youth and inexperience contributed to the Gener- al ' s downfall but there is always next year — and next year looks very promis- ing for the Generals.

He and senior Sybil Perr ' visited Indianapolis for the Girls State Track Meet four consecutive years, three of those resutling in state titles for Sybil. Two things coach Blosser must know well: How to coach a girls ' track team and how to get to Indianapo- lis. Sybil Perry was the only General able to advance to the state meet in 1981, but she managed enough points to place Wayne fifth. Perry took state victories in both the 100 and 400 meter dashes as she did as a junior. Perry was also the state champion in the 100 yard dash as a sophomore, making her a three-time state champion in that event. The rest of the team did rather well, too, as they earned an 11-2 record. One of the losses came from an area-best Northrop squad: the other was the result of a one-point Harding edge. Victories for Wayne came from Bellmont, South Adams, Snider. Concordia, South Side, East Noble, Homestead, Bishop Luers, Elmhurst, Bishop Dwenger, and North Side. Wayne more than doubled six of their eleven defeated opponents. Wayne did well at invitational meets as well. Although they obtained no firsts, the Generals earned seconds at the Nor- throp Invitational, the SAC Meet, and the Dayton Roth Invitational, finishing behind a devastating Northrop team in two of those. Wayne ' s women ended up third at Sectionals and advanced four individuals to Regionals, where Wayne finished sixth. At Sectionals Wayne took an easy third, placing behind the eventual state champion. Northrop and long-time rival South Side. Northrop ran away with the meet, grabbing 93 points, and Wayne rounded out the top three with 55 points. The Generals placed sixth at Region- als. Freshman Becky Hardy advanced to regionals in the 400 meter run, sopho- more Cheri Heller in the 1600 meter run, and senior Robin Johnson in the hur- dles. Sybil Perry went to state in the 100 and 400 meter dashes where she cap- tured state titles. 104 -REICHERT ' S LAST HURRAH (Editor ' s Note: Due to Mr. Reichert ' s importance to Wayne ' s athletic pro- gram, especially its financial stobiiity. we decided to say a special goodby to the only athletic leader Wayne has ever known. The following is a partial reprint of an article that ran earlier this year in The Dispatch.) Mr. Reichert has been in athletics for 30 years in the capacity ' of either a basketball coach or an athletic director. He coached South Side ' s Basketball team from 1951-1967. Among his ac- complishments are a state champion team (1958), a final four placing ( ' 67), the coaching of two Mr. Basketball ' s, and a record of 56 consecutive SAC wins. He taught at South for two more years, before coming to Wayne. His biggest accomplishment at Wayne is putting the Athletic Department in the black by paying off a $35,000 loan from the city in seven years and then saving some money for, as he termed it, A real lean year. This is quite a feat for a small school that was then only seven years old. Mr. Reichert believes that the young sports program has had marvelous suc- cess. It ' s had two state championship teams: boy ' s track in ' 74 and girls track in ' 79. The basketball team was rated number one in the state in ' 76, and to top it all off, the ' 81 basketball team won the regional. This success is almost miraculous in lieu of the odds the pro- gram has to work against. It ' s part of one of the toughest conferences in Indiana, the SAC; it shares the city ' s populace with nine other schools, thus limiting its size and financial input. And it ' s only been around for ten years. Therefore, Mr. Reichert says we have fought hard for this success and must continue to do so for the continued existence and suc- cess of the program. Two of the significant problems in the Athletic Department are lack of funds and poor fan support. It may be helpful to compare Wayne to another school. say Marion. Marion averages 6000 at a basketball game, Wayne only 1800. Marion this year sold $37,000 in tickets, Wayne (according to Mr. Reichert) doesn ' t sell that much in 5 years. Now, this example isn ' t saying that there aren ' t spirited people roaming Wayne ' s halls. There are, and Mr. Reichert ap- preciates the great job they are doing, but sad to say, there aren ' t enough of them around. Another stress on Wayne ' s pocket- book is the girl ' s sports program. This is so because of lack of interest or support. The simple fact of the matter is, as stated by Mr. Reichert, that all sports, ex- cluding football and boy ' s basketball, take money away from the school. Even the girl ' s basketball team, with the sen- sational season it had this year, didn ' t break even. So with all these problems facing Mr. Reichert, in addition to the risi ng cost of transportation, what are the possible solutions? Mr. Reichert could go to the state and ask for money they don ' t have, curtail the sports program, or ask the students for more support. So, it all goes back to the students. According to Mr. Reichert, we could have the greatest sports program in the world, but not without student support. Thus, Mr. Reichert hopes there will be greater stu- dent support in the future. Mr. Reichert has done such a superb jon in light of the problems Wayne faces that, starting this year, the Wayne Award will be renamed the Don Reichert Award in his honor. I could not think of a more fitting reward for a man who has done so much for this school. (Far left) Athletic Director Don Reichert handles his last regional basketball ticket sale at Wayne.

One of the top six individu- als throughout the year was Mike Kel- lermeir, who was a pleasant surprise this year improving his stroke total by at least an average of 3 strokes over last year. Next up was Chris Criswell, probably the most improved player on the team. He came out this season ready to play with two 38 ' s in a row in the first two matches, but fell out of the lineup later only because of Mike Kellermeir ' s late surge of brilliance. The next four players in order of their positions were John Kuntz, Bradd Schneider, Bob Kwatnez, and Line Schneider. These four members were the meat of the team, the players that were fairly consistent throughout the whole year. Each one contributing his (Clockwise From Left) Mike Kelermier putts off his front foot. John Kuntz keeps his head down as he begins his backswing. GOLF TEAM |1 to r| Kneel- ing; Oris Criswell.

The first SAC match ended up being a ver ' crucial match with Snider. Wayne lost this first match to Snider 166 to 162. This ended up to be Wayne ' s destiny against Snider for they lost another one to them at the end of the year 166 to 160. This cost Wayne the SAC championship, but was the only failure Wayne had, for the rest of the story is glory. Wayne, after losing that first match, rattled off 11 vic- tories in a row. Then after a third place finish in the SAC, the Linksmen took Golf Sectionals by surprise and finished second to New Haven by 1 stroke out of a field of 18 teams. John Kuntz carried the team at sectionals with an almost flawless round of n, tying for 3rd low individual. Wayne then advanced to Regionals at Purdue South, in Lafayette. The course had too many trees for the Texas golf ball murderers. Wayne should have replaced the trees with chainsaws and finished a disappointing 14th. No one broke 80, although Bob Kwatnez had a bid with an 81. The golf team went home on the long road, but with heads high, because this year ' s golf had done as well as any team before by going to regionals. The Wayne golf team will be losing only 2 seniors next year. Line Schneider an all SAC selection his sophomore year and senior year, and [ohn Kuntz, a solid player who responds to pressure. The team will miss these players, but all- SAC selection Bob Kawtnez and future all-SAC selection Bradd Schneider will lead the tradition of Wayne High School and its golf team into a bigger and better season. How could you lose with Presi- dent Todd Slater and Kevin Fitzharris lending their cheers and abilities to the varsity ranks next year?

Coach Ragle did well, winning the respect and confi- dence of the players and steadied their play. By mid-season the team was playing well and beat a good Northrop team, dropping only second singles to the Bruins. The Wayne netwomen ' s finest hour came at the next match against a powerful Bishop Luers ' squad. The Knights bested the Generals by 6-1 score, but this is not to say the victory was an easy one. Wayne ' s first and sec- ond singles players, Natalie Ellis and lanet Kirkman, as well a s the second doubles team of Pam and Laura Parr, took the mighty knights to the full three sets before bowing in defeat. At the season ' s end the team was strong enough to place eighth out of fif- teen teams at sectionals. Ellis won her first match and played well in her sec- ond, but finally succumbed to another strong player from Bishop Luers. Janet Kirkman won her first two matches, the second a grueling three set, before drop- ping her third match on the following Monday. The doubles teams fared less well. Janice Kirkman and Denise Hollo- way at first doubles seemed nervous, and the Parr sisters played tentatix ' eh ' . calling some dubious shots by their opponents in. Senior Natalie Ellis led the team at first singles with good over-all play. She relied on her quickness for a steady baseline game, and it also made her effective at the net. Janet Kirkman used a strong backhand to compliment an adequate forehand. Her sterling two- handed o ' erhead smash earned her the title of the tomahawk. Third singles Ann Trainer displayed good form, and fourth singles Kim Zimske developed a very strong serve. The first doubles team of Kirkman and Holloway played very well together with good coordination and communica- tion. Their ability to recover well made them especially strong at the net. The second doubles team of Pam and Laura Parr showed great patience that led to the winning of many long volleys. With the prospect of having the same coach for two straight years and by los- ing only one player from a steadily improving team, the outlook is finally bright for Wayne ' s girl ' s tennis team. This year ' s young team will be a year older, well-seasoned, and ready to fol- low in the footsteps of Wayne ' s netmen.

The Generals were picked as pre-season favorites to win the S.A.C., but the Gen- erals found it was easier said than done, as coach Lee DeTurk led the team to a 12-10-1 season record. Although the Generals season was not up to par, they did have some success at the Sectional tourney, winning their first game. The Generals defeated the New- Haven Bulldogs decisively by a score of 9-4. Senior Brent Parker played a flaw- less 2nd base, leading the team to victory as he devastated New Haven ' s pitching going 4 for 4 at the plate. John Warren got the pitching victory as he completed the seven inning game. The Generals, who were finally beginning to look like a top contending team, couldn ' t hang on and were defeated in a pitching duel between Wayne ' s John Warren and Harding ' s Rich Klemke. The Hawks won the semi- final game of the Sectional 1-0. One of the bright spots for the Gener- als were junior Chris Adams. Adams led the pitching staff with a 4-1 record, and an impressive E.R.A. of 2.10, the lowest on the team. Adams gave up only 16 hits, 14 runs, 21 walks, while striking out 18 in 33 1 3 innings. Junior John Warren had a 4-5 season record with a 2.70 E.R.A. Warren was Wayne ' s fireman of the year, striking out 60 in 64 2 3 innings. Sophomore Danny Correll was a pleas- ant surprise for the pitching staff. Correll finished out the year with a 2-1 record, striking out 17 and only walking 12 in 34 1 3 innings. Seniors Jeff Burton and Eric Chapman (who did not pitch until late in the year because of a sore arm) each had 1-1 records. Chapman struck out 11 with a 1.40 E.R.A. in 10 innings, while Burton struck 10 giving up 14 hits with an E.R.A. of 4.38 in 16 innings pitched. Offensively for the Generals Eric Chapman led the team with a .313 bat- ting average and collected 12 stolen bases. Senior Bob Lebamoff, who was consistent behind the plate all year, was also consistent at the plate v ith a .301 batting average, driving in 12 runs. John Warren came on strong at the end of the year with a .297 B.A. driving in 13 runs. The top R.B.I, man for the Generals was Senior short stop Jerry Bowman. Bow- man batted at .276 driving in a team leading 17 R.B.I.s Bowman also stole 12 bases which typing Eric Chapman for the team lead. Senior outfielder Jeff Burton only batted .203, but made up for the low average by knocking in 11 R.B.I.s, and 9 stolen bases. Parker was also named to the All SAC 2nd team. I Left Above!

The Generals posted a 7-2 record. This was the best any Wayne reserve baseball team has ever done. The Generals only losses came against the South Side Archers, in extra innings, and the Elmhurst Trojans. Thanks to a solid pitching staff, the Generals held the opposition to just 21 runs in 9 games. Dan Correll and Mike Mungovan were pitching aces for the Generals. Team batting leaders were Mark Mungovan and brother Mike, along with Mickey Owens. Other offensive stand- outs were Chris Olson who had a hot bat along with a speedy pair of legs. Olson led the team in stolen bases. Scott Doerhman was a clutch hitter for the reserve as well as the Varsity squad. Steve Owens showed his out- standing fielding ability at second base and will be a prime prospect for the Var- sit ' 2nd base position next year.

On the professional level, pain has been accepted as one of the occupa- tional hazards. Even on the high school level, the number of sports related inju- ries in recent years has been staggering. There have even been incidents where high school athletes have died or have been handicapped for life from injuries sustained at sponsored athletic events. Fortunately, high school administra- tors and coaches have recognized this and are working to prevent or at least limit the extent of the injuries. Coaches are required to take first-aid classes, as well as refresher courses. The impor- tance of properly conditioning the body before submitting to strain has been greatly emphasized as a means of pre- venting some injuries. Muscle injuries, particularly those to the legs, have been significantly reduced by having the team members go through supervised warm- up routines. The football field claims the majority of the injuries and has the greatest potential for serious injury. In response to this, each player is outfitted with over 200 dollars of protective gear. As a fur- ther precaution, a completely equipped ambulance with a fully trained crew of E.M.T. ' s from the Poe Volunteer Fire Department is on stand-by just outside the stadium at every home football game. Throughout this past year, Wayne has certainly had its fair share of injuries. But the football team wasn ' t the only team that was visited by broken bones or pulled muscles. Terri Bade was put on the disabled list several times with foot and ankle injuries. Sybil Perry slipped during one of her routines on the uneven bars and suffered a badly bruised face as well as some embarrass- ment. In the days following, instead of wearing the scarlet letter O (for Ouch!) on her chest, she displayed a sign that hung around her neck that read, I fell off the bars! Jerry Bowman had to watch the last games of the baseball sea- son from the dugout after breaking his hand when sliding head-first. Eric Chapman was moved from the mound to first base for part of the season because of a sore arm. Brian Rider discovered that an oozing blister can be more pain- ful than tennis elbow. Sophomore pole vaulter, Terry Lundquist, received com- plicated face and eye injuries when he fell head-first onto an area at the North- side track where the protective mats hadn ' t been put out. Injuries are also sustained outside of the team athletics as someone manages each year to twist an ankle in gym class. Jeff Mahoney ' s jaw had to be wired in place after he got a hard knock on the racquetball court at an open-rec. Not being able to talk for all that time must have been sheer agony for Jeff. Mike Reed, a former Wayne student, while enjoying a carefree summer day. was left paralyzed after his neck was broken in a water-skiing accident. Mike was very active in athletics while attending Wayne and his strong will inspired the Mike Reed Determination Award. This award is given each year to the student who best displays strong will and deter- mination. This year ' s recipient was Dave Rieth. Bumps, bruises, ouchies, and boo- boos are just about inevitable for an ath- letically active student. It is only hoped that the seriousness of such injuries will not be too great in the years to come. (Above) Greg McLemore is sidelined with his bro- ken bones.

Yet, the further we travel from either, the smaller it becomes, a mere speck on the horizon, the memories become fantastical as they become vague. Like scenes from a movie or a picture in a yearbook, high school turns into a series of events that happen in another life. Indeed, it is from another life, the people were in that time, we will never be again. f? ni? 5ip Advisor Album Staff Allen Peters Sharon Stewart Linda Stewart Editor-in-Chief Terr Stiirks Regina Schultz Typists Student Life Editor Amv Holston Sherp, ' Boatright Phil Mover Terry M ' iller Student Life Staff Amy Holston Photographers Tina Holston Dennis Duncan Dean Ross Academics Staff )oel Springer Barbara Andrew joe Paul Heather Duemling Tim Clifford Tina Holston Sports Editor Susan Maxwell Ed Sorg Special Thanks Tcj: Sports Staff Matthev Werling Steve Gross Ben Werling Kevin Cooke Melissa Marrs leffDurnell Kurt VVuebbenh(jrst Greg Trainer Tim Barbier loeReilly Greg Borkowski Loren Bunnell Line Schneider Grant Acker Album Co-ordinator Teige Cantey Susan Huston Fred Autenrieth Nancy Gouloff Leanna Henderson Chris Essex 160 llllllllfiiiK %
