The Anderson County Cross Country team had not only a state champion, it also had lots of effort from many individuals. There is no doubt that Bernice was great this year but we all worked hard, said Iohn Combs. We couldn't have come in third in the state Without everybody pitching in and giving a little bit of effort. Senior Brian Jones added about this year 's season, This has been an exciting year filled with a lot of things to remember: Bernice won the 1986 State Championship, beating the defending '85 State Champion, the team came in third in the state. It has all been great! W, if

THAT CLASSIC STYLE . . . Helps Bernice Coach Harp to State Titles Bernice Running just comes natural! said senior Bernice Peyton after capturing the state Cross Country title of 1986. This was only the second time in Anderson County history that this has happened. I was running with the best in the state, he said. I was really nervous and shaky but one thing I have learned since I have been running is, that is what will hurt you the worse. You have to learn to overcome that. Bernice is very intelligent when it comes to running, said Coach Randy Crist, who has coached Bernice for the past two years. He proved this with his tactics against the defending state champi- on of 1985. Bernice is a fairly new member to the cross country family He did not run until his junior year. You could always see improvement in his running, said Coach Crist. He was a quick thinker and always reached the goals that he would set for himself! He was one of the most talented runners I have ever coached in my career! I have really enjoyed running cross country under Coach Randy Crist, said Bernice. I will always remember this year as being one of the best of my life! We will really miss having Bernice on the team next year, said Coach Crist. He was a real pleasure to work with, and he was always a big winner! Showing endurance and stamina on his face, Bernice works hard to be number one in the race at Kentucky State. Talking with reporters after capturing the 1986 Cross Country Title, Bernice answers one of their many questions. 34 - Football After receiving the State title, Coach Crist and Bernice walk away as winners.
