From the loneliness of the long distance runner to the precise coordination of a championship relay team, track has something for everyone. Drawing talent from people is a special skill in which Coach Perkoski excels. He instills a feeling of importance in everyone who works at his job. This year’s team with only three returning seniors will be depen- dent on help from the under- classmen. Co-Captain Peter Rol- lins could close his career as the last B.C.C. 220 Champion. Co- Captain Phill LaPorte will be striding hard to break his person- al and school best 9:54 two miles. This year each member of the team must push to break his own record, for an all out effort is needed for success.

Golf team putts to victory It’s great to be a winner! The golf team under the coaching of Mr. Neil Loew has not had a los- ing season in four years. Last year’s team led by five returning lettermen was no exception to the Feehan style of winning. A very impressive record eleven wins four losses, and one tie was good enough for a second place finish in the S.E. Mass. Golf League. Optimism is overflowing for this year’s team, with all six starters returning. All eyes will be on the Shamrocks this year to improve upon last year’s record and make a gallant effort for the crown.
