lf asked how they felt about wrestling, most ev- ery wrestler would soy, it is a lot of self discipline. Also hard work. They probably would not mention the Pride that goes along with being part of the Golden Eagles Wrestling Team. Aside from the de- termination put in by the individual, wrestling is also a strong team sport. Indi- vidually a wrestler may be ambitious to achieve his goals on the mat, but not totally by himself All the ambitions a wrestler sets may not be reached with- out the support of his team members. Win, Lose or Draw, his teamates are there to share his l'ThriIl of VICTO- RY and the 'lAgony of DEFEAT. The Eagles are constantly making weight and enduring the hours of practice to prepare for the battle of every match just to prove that x'Eagle Pride is still our burning desire. Great Strength, super skills and awesome bal- ance brought victories against our calabash neighbors Borah and Boi- se. This years Eagles were very tough at the sopho- more level and showed great promise for future champions, The Varsity did well in the Elko tourna- ment, winning 7th place in this Tri State meet with Greg Packard taking 2nd and Brent Wardle finishing 3rd. At the Caldwell Christ- mas Tournament, Jimmy Kimmel placing 4th and Brian with his talented brother Brent receiving 3rd place honors. The future of our Gold- en Eagles Wrestling team looks bright with our youngsters doing well in education, sharing ideas and complimenting each others Achievements. Lets face it! Not everyone can become a wrestler. The will to win war isn't important as the will to prepare yourself for the BATTLE, wart? 14. 49' 7-50 34-30 7th 62-4l 8th 42-24 45-33 l 8-44 5 l -22 O-68 32-23 2nd 28-3l 26-39 Nampa Kuna Elko Glenns.

Shoot!! Shoot!! . . . half-nelson, half-nelson. Wrestling is a sport that de- mands a unique person. One who is willing to sacrifice him- self for his own personal gra- difications. Wrestling is a mental mans sport that re- quires one who will comit him- self to do the things that los- ers don't like to do. These things can be simply stated as: hard work, practice, or should I say perfect practice, iust putting in your time doesn't count for wrestling. If you are having a bad day ev- eryone knows. But in basket- ball and football, you can take five and think about your mistakes. Also, to have enough pride to take critisism for losing from people who don't even know what the sport of wrestling is about. Until you can step out on the mat and say, Hey, l've wres- tled a match and know what it is all about. Until you fthe fans? can say this, you shouldn't be saying anything about a wrestler or the team. Wrestling can be com- pared to life itself, only you can succeed and only you can fail. There's no one to hide behind or replace you. Theres only a few who are willing to compete in one of the toughest sports known to man, one on one competi- tion, in this case its WRES- TLINGY' N 4. r. ,Q The members of Wrestling, Front Row: Coach O'l-lara, Carter Oster, Doug Schaffer, Tim Schaffer, Brian Teeter, Scott Page, Kirk Elge, Robert Rodrieguez, Ja Bonner, John Roof, Trent Fulcher, Julio Ergren, Jenny I Schiff, Second Row: Eric Humphrey, Groham Todd, an Cole, Shawn Kettler, Brad Rowan, Jason Coll, Kirk Morriss, Donnie Wilcox, Dan Raynor, Bryan Powell, Brewer Joe Buckles, Aaron Shinn, Sona Tayler.

Idaho's snow drought forced a late start by the ski club but by the time Bo- gus Basin received its blan- ket of white, the skiers were more than ready to hit the slopes. Races were contested every Thursday and Satur- day on Bogus' chalienging NASTAR and BITTER- ROOT courses. Thurs- day's racers are a select group chosen by their per- formances the previous Saturday, The season culminates in the annual Dotty Clark Memorial Race from which the mythica state champion is chosen. To cap the season, ski- ers pool the money they earned from various fund raising events-sale of Homecoming mums, chocolate santas for Christmas and the annual jog-a-than-and take in a fun filled weekend trip to Sun Valley--ldaha's pre- mier resort.
