Third Straight Win No one lighted a torch, no one received a gold medal; but the third annual Bland County Field Day was just as important as the Olympics. Early morning high school participants and spectators gathered on the fairgrounds May 14, 1981. The Bland Athletes took first place in overall competi- tion. Bland competitors held first in the fol- lowing events: boys’ high jump, boys’ 440, girls’ 440, girls’ softball throw, boys’ shot- put (Bland took all four places), girls’ shot- put, girls’ running broad jump, and boys’ 100 yard dash. The mile ru n was also won for Bland. ABOVE: Ervin Sparks shows his skills in the high jump. “We told you not to call them that.” Bob Atwell, Ricky Bur- cham The winners! Elbert Shelton, Juanita Harris, Mr. Cantrell, Sarah Wynn, Richard Bartleson, Charlie Brown, Mrs. Mabe, Ricky Burcham, Billy Talbert. Field Day—23

Well, losing isn’t all that wonderful. The 1981 Tennis teams, unfortunately, know the ag- ony and heartbreak of defeat. The boys won one game (the first in six years) for the season and the girls almost evened it out with a 5-4 record. The spirit was always there, however. The teams never gave up. Young, strong athletes went into every game with determination in their hearts and on their minds along with hopes that, “This one — we'll win.” Kay Mabe, boy’s coach and Trish Compton, girl’s coach, kept up the hard work and didn’t let the kids get down. They, along with every ten- nis player, deserve a standing ovation for a job well done (if not in play but in spirit). FRONT ROW: Geneva Clark, Wendi Price, Patty Hylton, Mary Pruett. BACK SHOBWNA ROW: Coach Trish Compton, Karen Harden, Sue Smith. Patty Hylton Tennis—25
