Senior SytJriey Dull is pacing herself through Rancho San Rafael Park during zone championships. ' || :j i i the thrill of the CROSS COl NTRY The boys ' cross ct)untry team did bet- ter this season than seasons in the past. They took the league championships with a per- fect record. In October the team went to the Mt. Sac Invitational in Ca- lifornia. Kelly Dodge placed tenth in the Varsity race. In the Sophomore division Jeff Bean placed third, Tim Tetz placed fourth, and John Wurster placed seventh. John Dodge placed fourth in the freshman division. All of these runners received medals for their efforts. The girls ' cross country team was not quite as successful. They placed second in the league cham- pionships with an eight and two record. Coach Dave Amster said, There was at least one sick run- ner during each major race. The girls team also went to the Mt. Sac Invitational but did not place high enough to receive medals. I felt obligated to run this year, said Senior Sarah Ward. She was referring to the loss of Coach Jim Frank last year. Jim Frank passed away at the end of the school year from cancer. Mr. Sullivan then took over the girls ' team and Dave Amster remained the boys ' coach. Dave Amster then became the coach of both the boys and the girls. Veronica Castillo stretches before the zone championships at Rancho San Rafael Park. Senior Sarah Ward walks towards Coach Jim Amster and the team for a quick meeting before the zone championships. Jennifer Crawford and Audra Brinkerhoff run towards the finish line during the zone championships. ■ -5- A ■A 112d

BV the fhrill of ihe y: C V( Varsity Football L(ii)k, lookl I ' m on t.v. — all three stations! said QLiartcrhack Inhii F.ck. I in[(.r uw s and newspaper heaiiliiK tdllowed the (JIS varsity football team as they posted an 8-2 record, the first winning sea- son in four years. This year the team really had more incentive to win. I had never seen as many people at camp as there were this summer, and ev- eryone was constantly in the weight room, said strong safety Kell Nichols. John Eck. the miniber one quar- terback in the north and Carlos Mendeguia, the number one receiv- er in the north, made a strong of- fensive pair. Number two receiving honors went to Jim Reid. The num- ber three receiver in the league, Davey Navarro, helped make up the strong offensive team. On the defensive line, size meant everything. Paul Longshore tow- ered at 6 ' 4 and weighed in at 215 pounds. His cohort, Charley Par- nell, stood at 6 ' 2 and tipped the scales at 195 pounds. Every single individual contrib- uted to our success. It was defi- nitely a team effort the whole way, said defensive lineman Billv Britt. One highlight of the season was the Reed game. Ranked 2 in the north going into the CHS game, the Raiders lost their ranking to the Senators who kept it for them- selves. The game ended in a 15-7 victory upset for the Senators. The Reno game left the players with a definite feeling of success. For the first time in ten years, the Huskies had been stopped dead ith the final outcome of the game 30-0 for the Senators. The second meeting of the Sen- ators and Hug Hawks was on Car- son turf. In a previous season game in Hawk territory, the Hawks hand- ed Carson t)ne of their twt) losses. But the second game was for even bigger stakes. It was the semi-final zone championship. At the half the Hawks led 6-0. An inspiring talk in the locker room by Coach Mariani got the team pumped up, and the second half was all theirs as they flew right over the Hawks. The outcome of the game had the Senator fans cheering all the way to the zone champi- onship game on the Wooster Colts home field. bv: Liz Willis VARilTY FOOTBALL From R„u : C.ro Wct.nkamp.
