In fact, the more D's an ath- lete had, the better. That's because D stood for dedication, desire, and determination.

Thej.V. team ended its season with a 5-2 record. Coach Rop Voyt ex- pressed high hopes for the next year and members ofthe team are looking forward to making the Varsity team next year.

As the chilly November wind swept over the fro- zen field, the two best teams in the state prepared to start the champion- ship game. Guts and pride dominat- ed the game and both teams battled down to the wire until two 15-minute overtimes were necessary to deter- mine the outcome.

During this time the games are spread over a 10-week season. Capital was the only undefeated team and undoubt- edly proved they were the best guys on the block. illlfmll 1' 1-Zilmf 112-Zilllm Cillflwell- YOUNG EXPERTLY handles the soccer ball as he directs it around his opponent, JUNIOR VARSITY SCOREBOARD WE OPPONENTS 1-3 Boise 2-4 Borah 5-5 Meridian 7-2 Mtn.
