SpORTS Ring-g-g. They bounded off to another sea- son. Running, jumping, kicking, passing, and punting their way to victories. To participate in sports, it took more than raw talent. Players had to train themselves both physi- cally and mentally. Daily practices took their toll on their time and energy. However, the winning made it all worthwhile. Callaway boasted all the tradi- tional teams like football, basket- ball, track, and baseball. In addi- tion, the department kept up with the times by offering soccer, golf, Softball, tennis, and intramurals. Each team strived to do their best and refused to settle for less. As anywhere, individuals stood out in every sport, but the team as a whole benefited from these personal achievements. Behind every good man stands a woman, and behind every good team there stands a coach. Callaway proved to be no excep- tion. With a veteran staff of head coaches, the school obtained a def- inite edge. In time the seasons came and the seasons went. The teams played long and hard, and through the sweat and tears, they learned to play better. Sports Division 67

Qi UJ Q Divine Perfection! Cleo Armstrong shows off the form that made him a hardhitting batter. Spring; A time for change. Flowers bloomed, groundhogs came out, and basketball sneakers were hung up. Amidst all this hubub, a vital part of spring was almost forgot- ten, another spectacular season of baseball. The sight of Coach Den- son tending the diamond, the sounds of spikes sharpening in the locker room, and the smell of glove oil helped everyone to sense that baseball was on the way. Long, hard hitters keyed the Callaway offense. Home runs were the normal, not the exception. Cleo Armstrong and Herbert Wilson led the offense in a multitude of other offensive statistics. The Chargers had six players who hit over .300. Herbert T. Wilson led the way at .388. Callaway ' s fielding ability did not match its hitting, but it stood on its own merits. Four starters had fly- paper gloves, catching anything in sight. Joe Rucker, the best of the best, had a .951 fielding average. This and his hitting helped him gain the honors of Most Valuable Player and High School All-Star. 68 Baseball
