r Competition was the name of the game and Chopticon Athletics certainly provided plenty of that for the C factor. Whether it was spring, winter, or fall sports, all of our athletes gave it their best shot. It took a lot of effort for them to par- ticipate in a sport and to keep their studies up, but our fine athletes managed it very well. It was wonderful to win, but even better was to have fun and represent our school with pride. The participants were extremely important, but let us not forget the coaches and spectators! They all made the games complete. The spectators sup- plied the players with extra strength they needed. They backed them all the way. Win or lose, they were always there for celebration or sorrow.

How Does It Feel... to Be Simply the Best? It Feels Great!! Dominating described the Lady Braves power on the field during the 1985 season. The Braves advanced to the state champion- ship with ease. To everyone else it was just a game, but our Braves were determined to win! The state championship was held at Upton Park in Anne Arundle County. Our opponent was Einstein. The game began at four o’clock. Einstein took the lead early in the game until the fourth inning. After trailing by four runs our Braves were ready for some action. Freshman Jeppa Harrison started the ex- citement when she scored the first run. Junior Susette Stone scored the winning run in the bottom of the seventh. The final score was 6-5. The Lady Braves had earned CHS our first State Championship ever. I always feel like somebody's watching me. Shelia White takes a curious second look back before returning the ball. Shooting for Excellence The boys varsity basketball team set a new CHS record at 16-6, were SMAC champs, and played in the state tourna- ment. Coach Rich O’Donnell earned Coach of the Year for his spirit, enthusiasm and consistently great coaching. In additon to his coaching duties, Mr. O’Donnell taught Social Studies and was always available to help students whether it was in the classroom or on the court. He provided a truly excellent example to our students. This player's out! Sherri Henderson tags a Lackey runner in one of their games. When Rich O'Donnell talks, the whole team listens! Mr. O'Donnell giving a pep talk to the Braves boys varsity basketball team. On your mark, get set. GO! Sandy Banagan is off to a quick start in this game against Lackey. 150 Competition Sports Mini-Mag
