I g Sports make year memorable Ithough the athletic scene changes each year, too often there isn't enough difference to really rake a difference. The 1983-84 athletic year, while at spectacular, wasn't that kind of a year. It will be membered. As in every year, many things happened. Teams id individuals won and lostg some won more than :ey lost others lost more than they won. But nidst the seasonal fights for athletic supremacy, :ere were three events which made the year one to -member. While King Football was grabbing local headlines A the fall, one of the minor sports was making story. Led by junior John Anderson, our unherald- i, unnoticed, crosscountry team shocked a favored district title. It was the first district running title in our l I-year history. During the previous year, Anderson had put together a squad of All-American swimmers who captured the state 5A girls' aquatic title. The young, mostly sophomore squad was considered the odds-on favorite to repeat as champions, perhaps for the next two years. However, because of disenchantment with the coaching and ,swim facilities, the squad's four All-Americans 'quit, along with swimmers from some of the other Austin schools. , The year ended early for the girls, and it threw the state 5A crown up for grabs. But groundwork was being laid for a comeback. expense of athletics. Dallasite H. Ross Perot and critics said we were spending too much time on the playing field and not enough time in the classroom. Several recommendations were made. It was then the legislature's turn. While the outcome wasn't known at year's end, we all realized the athletic scene as we knew it was undergoing change. But that change would never create a large turnout to support a district champion cross-country team, nor would it ever bring back a state championship in swimming. However, there would continue to be cross- country, and swimming, and football, and all the other sports. Academics was the main reason for us being at Anderson, but athletics provided the anier squad - and others - by capturing the Anothermovementbeganearly in theyearat the spirit that kept us going.
