Champions All Cardinal High School will long remember the 1957-58 year. It was full of credit- able events leading to top recognition and acclaim in many areas. Also, it was full of experiences that those in the school will ever recall since they had the opportunity to share in those activities that led to outstanding results. Such achievements are not attributed to Lady Luck, even though she had good de- signs on Cardinal School. Rather, they are the end result of much concentration and effort in the form of much practice, cooperation, enthusiasm, and pride. If individuals participating were without these vital factors, championships would be a myth, only to be desired by chance or luck. A What has Cardinal High School accomplished this past year to be so proud of them- selves and to be envied by others? In the athletic world, the highlight of the undefeated fall season was the second consecutive Geauga County Football Championship. A slow beginning in basketball, followed by a long string of victories, culminated by winning the tournament cup and a trip to the district tournament, added to the athletic teams' record. Spring found the baseball team adding to the prowess of the boys, when it not only copped the baseball tournament, continuing with two more wins in the state toumament before suffering its only defeat of the season, but also, forthe third year running, took the Geauga County Crown without losing a single game. The girls, too, contributed in their realm of cheerleading by being voted as the outstanding group in the district basketball toumament. Such athletic records and titles will become tributes to Cardinal High for a long time. The music department sparkled in its achievements what with a marching, concert, and dance band along with a high school chorus. Displaying outstanding performances in their concerts and other presentations, the music organization of Cardinal looked and played like the champions they were. In the scholastic world, many an individual proved him or herself a champion by the high honors bestowed on them in competition in the county and state. Scholastic endeavors by the seniors led to top honors in the senior scholastic tests. Other students gained recognition in other competitive tests. And so on down the line, the Cardinal High School Student Body paraded its ability in this and that area, A proud but jtstly deserved recognition was given to those that participated and to those who stood behind each effort sharing with devoted spirit, loyalty, and enthusiasm. Championships may not always result in trophies, cups, medals, and certificates, but they will result in effort and spirit. Champions all in every challenge of life whether it be in school or outside of school, champions all in everything it does--win or lose--Cardinal High School has become this. 2
