NDIVIDGALS EARN ? CM C w 5 □ V CL v ■ - 2 -c -O ° -s 2 a • • Ll CL a CL DC UJ f- H UJ THE BIG “A” f you look around campus you are most likely to see quite a few lettermen (and women) walking around. In most sports, the players are required to play a certain number of games, or play in the state tournament in order to receive a letter. Baseball, basketball, and football are three sports in which the “jocks can show their stuff. There are other sports, however, that lettering is possible. Participation in oth er areas, has brought new sports, quite unexpectedly into a lettering position. Diving and golf are two of these sports. Al- though Alta does not have a pool or a swim team, students may compete individually and still receive an Alta letter. Alta women also have a place in the lettering club. Bas- ketball. volleyball, track cross- country, and diving are the four sports that the girls may letter in. In order to receive a letter she must either play a certain number of games or make the Varsity team. With the help of the most spirited students, to encourage and support, the athletes we’re able to share their victories with everyone. It is not the sport, but the individual and team efforts that bring these competitors to re- ceiving the big “A . With an underrated reputation, Travis Clark s perfor- mance helped the team make a strong comeback in region and state. LETTERWOMEN: (GOLF) Starla Yamada GYMNASTICS) Darci Babcock.

The miles added up as the teams ran each day after school to prepare themselves for the upcoming meets. All the hard work paid off as the Hawks reached out for another championship title. Through many long, tire- some hours and extreme deter- mination. the boys team was able to place in the top ten in state, losing only two meets during the season. Heading the team, Greg Olsen. LaVoy Whit- more, Mike Childs, and Brian Jewkes together helped their team to reach a first place re- gion title once again. The girls team was again un- defeated. Melanie Pace was the all over state champion, while Kirsten Aure and LaDee Jensen were close behind. Together they made all the hard work look easy as they again took first in region and took the state championship for the sec- ond year in a row. “Coach Jensen gives us a lot of support. He's strict but does not over do it. There's some- thing about him that makes us want to do really well. Just knowing he cares does a lot for the team commented Kirsten Aure. Last year both teams placed highly at the invitationals. They were again able to hold this reputation as the boys placed in the top five at every invitational and the girls took first in all but one of theirs. Many of the athletes feel that cross country does not receive enought recognition but it was the support and confidence in each other which made the team thrive with well deserved success. Training pays off to inspire that last person to the finish line. irffisE: At the start of a race with Brigton. runners Start with style. . - The will to win lead the girls to the state championship again this year
