Stay out of the popcorn, Noordhoek. So went some of the more humor- ous aspects of the 1974-75 Cross Country season. It was the lighter side of a sport that many people take for granted. While most are focusing attention on the gridiron, what does the cross country runner do? He starts by waking up at 5:30 in the morning to get to practice by 6:00 a.m. This morning practice is usually taken up by a refreshing jog, dodg- ing cars, potholes, and fighting the evils of Kansas' winds. It takes a rare kind of determination to eat cold rice covered with sugar and milk at 7:30 in the morning after you've al- ready run three or four miles with a rowdy game of barnyard basketball thrown in. Also knowing you have to come back after school is no happy thought after having to run about '12 miles. That the Colts finished fourth in the AVL meet, fourth in the regional meet, and tenth in state competition was a pleasant surprise to Colt supporters. Senior Captain, Robin Wagoner took top Colt honors with a 17th place finish at State competition. His teamates had never run in State competition before but this year fared quite well as Victor Noor- dhoek took 33rd, Tim Mahoney, 36th, Lyle Noordhoek, 50th, Wayne Baker, 72nd, Tom Berry, 80thg and sub Chris Stewart placed 82nd, All but Wagoner, Lyle Noordhoek, and Baker will be back for next years, hopefully winning season. This years team was smaller in number than any other year, but I could really appreciate the amount of effort put out by the runners , Coach Leon Stranathan said. Also some returning runners show prom- ise forthe coming year. 'N -'M' - -. Ma....'. ...,,......,. V, -..,,.....,a,.,t.,. Y Juv

.ar Qitvlsl sspovl' oF'l3ecs exc.i'l'e.tmen-l- The advent of girls' sports in most area high schools have given girls a chance to excell in much the same way boys have. lt has provided an opportunity for the players to com- pete in interscholastic activities that were in the past limited to Pep Club. The girls volleyball team had a rather disappointing second season. The A Varsity squad finished the season with 0-7 record. Although the A team had their problems, N .5 4 g , the future holds a brighter outlook as both the B and C teams had winning records. Even though the girls didn't have an outstanding win-loss record, the experience and good times shared outlasted the dismal season. Their problems made the team seem as though they were giving their best with every missed spike and forgot- ten defensive assignment that plagued them. ,-Q, i.
