LET ' S ROCK, SENIORS! Senior spirit leader Kristina Owen cheers on the seniors at school spirit assembly. This was the first full year that spirit leaders existed. Six seniors and five ju- niors were chosen by the student body. According to Joycelyn Washington, the true purpose of the spirit leader was to over emphasize school spirit by getting the student body excited and involved in any activity pertaining to Magnet.” The spirit leaders attempted to put forth the extra effort into any activity at school. For Homecoming each spirit leader baked cakes which were sold and or given as prizes for their cake- walk. Their posters appeared all over the campus supporting the various Magnet events like soccer, track, soft- ball, rally, and even Academic Decath- lon. The Magnet spirit leaders made a name for themselves throughout var¬ ious school communities by bringing their smiles and outgoing personalities to better represent their purpose: pro- moting school spirit. 3EAUTY AND BRAINS, TOO!

Talented Golfers IT ' S QOP1E. Caught in the action of teeing off is Brian Basinger, the team s number one goifer. WhAT CONCEMTRATIOn Scott LeBlanc and Brian Basinger line up the shot while Ben McCormicK prepares to hit the ball and pray it goes in the hole. Putt Perfectly Young improving talent and experienced leaders are what guided the golf team to what sponsor Miss Owen said was “Our best chance at winning the regional tourna- ment and advancing to the state ever.” Kevin Waguespack explained that the reason the team was so good is that they spent hours putting, chipping and stroking their way up and down the fairways and greens during the off-season. “I know there are better individual play- ers than me but the team has a real good shot at state” said Scott LeBlanc modestly. He ranks number two on the team. The team. consisting of fifteen guys and two girls, competed in afterschool tourna- ments against other schools in the Caddo Bossier area. The team usually came out in the top three schools. Scores were based on the four lowest scores of thv five players in the particular tournament. Along with team competition there are also individual awards. Last year Brian Ba¬ singer and Ben McCormick competed in the state tournament as individuals. This year the players with the best changers at individual honors in the state competition were Brian Basinger, Scott LeBean, Ben McCormick, Cari Charping, Kevin Wague¬ spack and Trey Gibson.
