Iwtb determination, guts, and skill, They Pulled It Before the uproarious fans, the Varsity team strides onto the court to warm up for the oncoming game. To be a part of this elite group of upper- classmen, it takes years of prepara- tion. That's where the j.V. squad comes into the picture. Led by the scoring of Tyler Clark, Brett Smith, and Brett Hoblin, this year's j.V.'s had a seven game winning streak beating Borah, Boise, and Meridian in close overtimes. A good quality of the team, quoted Coach Ed Thomas, is that all sixteen players work hard in practice every day which brought them together as a group during the games. Not really believing in themselves at first, the Sophomores came to- gether as a team later in the season and started to realize they could be winners. The record may not show a spirit of determination, but the team certainly did. These two teams worked hard, and displayed a lot of potential for being a very successful varsity team in the years to come. Plll.l,ING DOWN Tllli REBOUND.

Wanting to win with the a'esire of a ruthless team, pushing their way to the top The Eagles Take Flight ana' Soar ar have talent. But we worked hard to achieve our goals and we can play with anybody in the state. Our team worked very well together. Everybody knew his role, and got the job done according to what we needed from each individual. -Kirk Andrus I Our team wasn't big, wasn't of exceptional 14 ef . if - ty.. FAKING OUT HIS Caldwell opponent, Kevin Dibelius blindly passes the ball. As I walked into the loud roar in the gym, I knew right then, by the look of determination on each player's face, that this game was go- ing to be played with the utmost intensity. The Eagle starters' outside shooting was a real plus. Many times crucial three-pointers put the black and gold in the lead, enabling them to win the game. Another important factor was that the players coming off the bench added many points on the board and gave some ofthe starters a chance to rest. Probably one ofthe most exciting games was the first Capital-Boise match-up. The Ea- gles knew that it was going to be hard, phys- ical game from beginning to end and they showed that they were ready for it. The score- board may have said we lost by one point, but the scoreboard doesn't always tell the real truth about a game. The Eagles entered the season knowing it would be a year characterized by struggles. They took that burden and turned it into an assetg they never lost the desire to win it all. ON A FAST BREAK, Todd Michael looks for two more points. .Q ' 'A 2 if' -' - +- vi Boys Varsity Basketball 99
