l Si, I l D DDI lil Harriers Dedication Pays Off My legs feel like rubber. I can hardly breathe. My throat feels raw. I don't know if I'm gonna make it. l've GOT to make it! . . .now my stomach is turning summersaults. I think I'm gonna die. Why am I doing this? . . .I don't believe it - I think I see the finish line! The satisfaction of making it - the pride, the publicity, the hours of hard work paying off- all of this is what it takes for cross country runners to reach their ultimate goal - the finish line. This season, the girls' team succeed- ed in meeting this goal by placing third in the state meet. junior joy MacPher- son led the team by placing eighth in a field of 91. Only 20 seconds later, sophomore Karen Cibson crossed the finish line and placed 19th. Other finishers were Dianna Tiahart, senior - 23rd, Karla Weisner, junior - 24th, Debbie Beason, senior - 31st, Lisa Martel, senior - 33rdg and Kari Swenson, senior - 50th. I was really pleased with the girls at state. They ran their very best races of the year, commented Coach Mary Murphy. I thought they boys would have liked a better finish, she added, and on any other day they would have finished better. 108 Cross Country Teamwork penetrated the efforts of all the runners and individual improve- ment kept the teamwork alive. Perser- verance showed in all the dual meets where the girls showed an 8-4 record and, although the boys didn't turn out many wins, they competed very well, usually losing by only one or two points. In the state meet, Terry Bishop, junior, was the top placer for the guys with a time of 17:22 in the three mile run, only two minutes away from the first place time. Throughout the season senior Mike Pierre had been placed ahead of Terry but in the state meet he had to drop out of the competition because of cramps. He had been running in about 10th place before the cramps hit him. Other finishers were Ray Schwaller, senior, Phil Ward, junior, Stuart Jennings, senior, john Tremper, senior, and Randy Cowan, senior. Although some strongholds on both teams graduated this year, Coach Murphy will have six returning varsity runners and this year's strong IV team to add to next year's action. Coach Murphy hopes for some summer running and has high expectations of another successful season for 1979.

FB HIE I:il1BSSB Basketball Fever Hits Hawk Girls Perfecting free throws, sweating out sprints, running through drills and practicing two hours a night. Is this for you? This is for the 11 girls that play varsity girl's basketball. Although the popularity of girls basketball is increasing, some of the team members feel that spirit is sagging. We would like more support be- cause it's more fun playing with some spirit from the crowd, commented sophomore Liz Tyson. You get more psyched up when you hear people yelling for you. Compiling the same record as last year, 4-8, wasn't enough to assure the team a return trip to the state tournament, but the efforts of the girls showed outstanding finesse. In the rebounding category, Maureen iMoeJ Self had another successful season pulling down 139 rebounds, raising her average to 7.7 per game. Ranking second in the same category and receiving Most Valuable Player was julie Wolney with 126 rebounds, an average of seven per game. ! ' ' It '4 ' f , rf- . , Q it , ig I: .ui i 1 Q Q .

The jV's will contribute talent to next year's varsity team, while new talent will be coming up from the junior high. The upcoming team will probably be pretty good, senior Arlene Hullett commented. Some of the girls plan on going to camps and working hard during the summer. New talent from the freshmen will be coming up next year and it will be tough competition for this year's sophomores.
