Eigmwllifl i2lll8l'l8'lllPl?i3Q Ili E 3Q 'K 4-A an A The 1978 Cross-country season began on a note ofuncertainty. Even though Coach Rick Johnson was returning to Cabot, none ofthe present runners had trained under him before. The early part of the season was a period of learning and adjustment to a new and different program. The Panthers began to show signs of promise early. Several good time trials pointed to the first big meet: a tri-state affair put on by Harding College in Searcy. Cabot finished ahead of all other Arkansas schools and some out-of-staters, falling behind only power- houses Harding Academy of Memphis and Grissom of Huntsville, Alabama. Cabot's B-team won the small division. This proved to be only the beginning as the Panthers were on to trounce all competition in the next three meets at Cabot, Russellville and Little Rock. During these early meets, outstanding performances were turned in by Seniors: Wayne Cooper, Ronnie Swayne, Bob Massey, and Roy Brattong Juniors: Keith Brown, George Hamby, and Homer Whiteg Sophomores: Mike Lovettg Freshman: Richie Cooper. The state meet I ,J :Qian -5,3 and Arkansas' finest competition loomed large on Oct. 28. The Panther runners lived up to all expectations by literally running away with the meet. nw, In--- Wayne Cooper finished 5th, culminated a great season by leading his team- Lmammm I YWQHN. , mates to an unbeatable low score of 54 points. The outcome of the race and 325 l' 3 ex that AAA State Championship trophy left little doubt that the Panther cross country team was the class of the state in 1978. l GO PANTHERS. . .

nn Q. .Q Q' Q. 4' .. Q. N U N f. .- 41 Cabot fell short in seeking its first-ever state volleyball championship, but left Ar- kadelphia's Henderson State University with a 3-2 record against the best teams in the state and a fifth place finish. The Pan- thers also placed a member on the All- State team. Mel Brill was one of 12 volley- ball players named to the Class A All State Tournament team after playing. It was the first year an all-state team was named. Brill was a senior at Cabot High School and a member of last year's district championship volleyball team. The players who didn't play, cheered their team on with great enthusiasm. Even though they didn't participate in the games, they did very well on the bench. If it wasn't for them, the girls playing wouldn't get peped up as much as they would with the other players. Most of the players are seniors and will miss next year but will know we'll have a great one next year. QQ PANT H JA., lf' ,, .,.,.. f E - Ni. Q11 Tracey just loves to set.
