The surprise of the year was Mike Habley of the J.V.'s. Never out for any sport before, he came out and ran like a veteran. On the l0th grade team, Jack Herrington and Terry Puckett com- bined to finish in 5th and 6th places in the Northern League finals. Alfonso and Abel- ardo Lopez ran in the league finals after playing football all season. Alfonso placed third in the finals. Wilson's captain, Ruben Yuriar, finished 8th in the varsity classifi- cation. Another pleasant surprise was tenth grader Doug Lindberg who was moved to the Varsity and behaved like a seasoned performer. ln the city preliminaries, run at U.C.L.A. on a very windy, rainy day, Ru- ben Yuriar placed 20th for the Varsity, Abelardo and Alfonso Lopez finished 8th and l0th, the only Mules to qualify for the city finals. ln the lOth grade David Garcia scored a big surprise by finishing 22nd in leading the lOth grade team across the finish. sei' CROSS COUNTRY SQUAD-Row I: Ruben Yuriar, Abelardo Lopez, David Garcia, Mr. Ross, Tony Vidana, Frank Deckon, Roger Moon.
