Track Takes Disappointing 2nd Winning 2nd in district, the boys track team went to Re ionals with a total of 86 f oints, an improvement over ast year's 3rd place. Losing to Hastings by 1 1 3 points was very disappointing. Coach Fawcett felt it was the worst experience of the season because they were so close to being district champs. The regional competitors consisted of Devlin Dunn in the long jump and 400 meter dash, Trevor Dodd in the 110 high hurdles, and the 1600 meter relay team of Darren Bell, Shawn Forristall, Tim Adam- chick, and Devlin Dunn. Outstanding players of this season were Devlin Dunn and Trevor Dodd, both doing exceptionally well in compe- tition. Trevor replied, I think overall Devlin Dunn is the best team member. He is the fastest and runs the best in competition. Junior Gary Neal has had a memorable season. One event that was most unusual was during a meet when his pole broke in the pole vaulting event. Coach Fawcett felt that he was an excellent player, but hasn't really been recognized enough, and that he may possibly be the star player next year. The outlook on the future team as Coach Fawcett ex- plained, With improved attitude and hard work, there is no stopping the Elsik Rams! The team will strive to get better and improve in their weak areas to succeed further in the future!
