eep n Iiackin' . . . running against the clock. With every ounce of ener- gy I pushed myself closer to- wards the finish line. Those last few feet seemed to be much longer than usual. Late nights of after school prac- tice flashed in front of my eyes as I felt the tape stretched tightly across my chest. Every spring the once abandoned track bustles with activity as the track sea- son commences. People be- gin their Iaps around the track, while others practice shot put or high jumping. IIDedication and endurance are high on the list of musts for a track member, said Trina Henrie. One also must be willing to put forth their best effort and work hard, Most end up practicing for about eight hours a week. They also must be good com- petitors. But most important- ly be willing to work as a team. During the season track members competed in several different meets, in- cluding Southern Idaho Con- ference, District, and State. I could not believe it, my dream had finally come true. I was city champ in the 440. All the long hours of agony had finally paid off.

The i986 girls soccer team won their third straight Treasure Valley League championship with an I I-0-I record. This year's team peaked dur- ing the season on and be- fore the State tourna- ment, resulting in a third game loss denying them their chance to repeat as State champions for a third consecutive year. The defensive part of the team was the most consistent in their perfor- mance and included Ko- trina Corn, Sheila Cole, Beth Fetrow, and Kelly Mankin. The offense was led by Candace Lords, Tif- fany Heidt, and Kim Meyers, while our midfield contingent was led by An- gie Hiatt, and Susan Tor- rey, I want to wish our six seniors the best in the fu- ture. I hope that each will take with them something learned from their high school soccer experience that will make each one a more complete individual in the future. The Seniors have big shoes and their places will be hard to till, but I think the twelve re- turning Ietterwomen will accept the challenge to re- peat with Capital pride. Thank You team. .jeg aa was TAKE THAT!! Kicking the ball down field to an offensive teammate, Katrina Corn grimaces with determination as she moves the ball against Meridian. The Eagles pre- vailed, 3 to O. I64 Girl's Soccer Comm Up Short It was a crisp day in early fall, not cold exactly, cool enough for a jacket, but not cold enough for a coat. I hopped out of my car and headed toward the green field edged by brightly uni formed players and enthusi astic spectators. So this was soccer, I thought wonder ingly-curious to see what made the game so popular The Girl's soccer team en tered their season with the prestige of two consecutive State Championships. Prob- ably the most feared team in the state, the Eagle soccer team was indeed a force to be reckoned with. After walking over every eam in their path remaining unde feated for the third straight year the girls looked forward to their trip to State the Sen iors especially wanted to end their final season in a glaze of glory But they were disap The lady Eagles fell to the opportunistic Meridian War riors in a hard fought play off match Despite our dominat ing the maiority of the game Meridian took advantage of their few possessions and managed to hold us back. All was not lost however Senior Marnie Basom com- mented Although we didnt take state which was very disappointing this soccer season has brought me many new friends and has taught me many valuable lessons which will always apply to the future As the minutes ticked by I grossed in this game Incredi ble speed and agility was re quired by the players to per form their best Ignorant as I was about the game I knew our team had all these quali- ties along with determina- tion and desire to succeed. OFFENSIVE ATTACK Moving the ball for the offense Can- dace Lords eyes the goal. We beat the Warriors 4 to I.
