Bulldogs burn Devils at Homecoming The evening of October 8 was a warm sophomore Kathy Koval, and junior fall night for a perfect Homecoming game. The night’s activities began with the traditional Homecoming parade consisting of the Royal Regiment, clubs, organizations, the queen candidates, and the class princesses. The mighty Bulldogs clashed with the Lowell Red Devils at 7:30 p.m. The Bulldogs, cheered on by rowdy students, easily defeated the Devils, 21-7. Contrary to the tradition of past years, the freshman float won the float competition at halftime. At halftime Anne Nerney, Booster Club vice presi¬ dent, announced the class princesses and queen candidates. The class princesses were freshman Dawn Burish, Nancy Cowan. Then the four queen can¬ didates, Teri Anderson, Kathy Cain, Julie Haag, and Jackie McLaughlin, nervously walked across the football field with their escorts. Sandy Kersey, Booster Club president, crowned the teary-eyed Teri Anderson the 1982 Homecoming queen. Mario Soto, Stu¬ dent Council president, presented Teri with roses and the signed football. The annual Homecoming dance, with “Best of Times” as the theme, took place the following night. Tony Degani was crowned Mr. Football by Sandy Kersey. Adam Gilbert, Rich Riddle, and Eric Schaeffer were the other candidates. Jay Mayden and Diane Zale (top) dance to the music of Banshee.

Students display Homecoming spirit Warm spirits filled the halls during the 1982 Homecoming week. The week began with the traditional class color day with the seniors dressing in red, juniors in blue, sophomores in yellow, and freshmen in green. Tuesday was the popular punk rock day. Several students dressed in bizarre clothing and wore absurd hairdos. A variety of college t-shirts and sweatsuits could be seen around the school on Wednesday and Thursday. Friday was red and white day, and spirited ticket holders poured into the gym to share in the excitement of the big game. In competing for the spirit stick, the cheerleaders led the school in several class cheers, with the juniors coming out victorious. Due to a heavy rain storm, the powderpuff game had to be postponed until the Monday after Homecoming. After a hard battle the juniors emerged victorious with a final score of 24-20. Mindi Barton and Nancy Cowan were named the most valuable players of the junior and senior teams, respectively.
