Those who participate in Fencing are rewarded in ways that few would have thought possibl e only a few years ago. Since that time, Fencing sponsor Ms. Settlemire has established a program at Magnet that is respected throughout the state. Since the 1984 Olympics, the sport of fencing has become more popular than ever. One of the reasons for the new found interest, Michael Aufrichtig believes is because “it is a sport employing excel- lence of the mind and body.” The fencers who have won awards this year include Greg German, Ist place Epe6 Division 2, Ist place at the Cajun Open; Mike Hawley, Ist place sabre Divi¬ sion 2; Scott Cambell, 77th place at the Junior Olympics, Ist place Little Rock Open-under 20; Michael Aufrichtig, 35th at the Junior Olympics, Ist at Halloween Open-under 20. Judging from the successes this year, the Fencing team is here to stay.

In The Swing Of Things Are you “green” with envy? Are you tired of just putting around? Well. get out fhere and try out for the golf team. Being a part of this team may be a ticket to future recognition and fame. With only fifteen people competing ac- tively on the team, the gold squad is based on ability and determination. Among the top players at Magnet was star Brian Basinger, who qualified for the AAAA state tournament by shooting a very low 76 at the regional tournament. With that mark, Brian joined the top quali- fying team in the state and helped them secure that honor. Brian telis us, “I guess that it all depends on when you peak. I played good all year but I shot better than my average at regionals.” This year our team moved to AAAA competition because of the recent growth of the team. Moving up made it harder to qualify in the regional and state tourna- ments. Regardless of that fact, the team managed to become the highest qualifier in the entire state. The team came m fifth in the district. Scott LeBlanc says he is not quite so serious. When asked why he plays, he responded with a quick, “I don’t have anything better to do with my time. I’m just out to enjoy the game and improve my forearm and neck tan.” He also says he likes the game because. “I can play old men for money on the weekends.” (ABOVE) SO WHAT IF I HAVE A FUZZY THING ON MY SHOULDER!
