Eyeing the egg, Lisa Brendel makes the catch. Waiting anxiously, the opponents listen to Mr. Gentsch explain the rules for the pie eating contest each team went down to the gymnasium floor and tried to eat a chocolate-cream pie in front of the student body before the three other opponents could finish. After school, by the softball field, the girls competed in the egg throw, the four¬ legged race, the Lifesaver relay, and the wheel-barrow race. An egg throw is the simple task of toss¬ ing a raw egg back and forth between two lines of ten girls. The egg could not drop and break, or else the team would be disqualified. The Risky Business team did great-the egg did not even crack, but for the other teams, many olympians had to throw a yellow slimy mess back and forth to team-mates. The four legged race is much more diffi¬ cult. Instead of two girls racing with one leg tied together, three girls participated. The middle girl had both her legs tied with socks to both her other partners on each side of her. Some teams had trouble with this event while others breezed through it. A Lifesaver relay has ten people in a row on each side straight across from each other. The first person puts the life- saver on her toothpick and runs across to the other person and slide the lifesaver onto the other girl’s toothpick. Hanging in there for the Terror Bears are Terence Jones. Steve Johnson. Brian Beers. Chip Patterson, and Dusty Cole. Eating hi way to victory, is Ben Kirchoff. Tuesday’s events were the 1200 meter pumpkin relay, the water balloon toss, and the sack race. Wednesday ' s event was the tug-of-war and Thursday there was a volleyball tournament. The winners of Senior Olympics were Menke’s Dahminators. Following close behind were Patton’ P-Nuts with sec¬ ond place and Risky Business with third place. The senior olympians had fun no matter what they placed, even while doing the most bizarre sport events. All The Right Moves
