Hawks Running True to Form Another Winning Season Although the men ' s track team didn ' t maintain their undefeated record, they still had an outstanding season with only one loss. This didn ' t bother new head coach, Mr. Malandro, whose philosophy was to score points in the big meets and the post season. The team succeeded in doing this. Scott Purdue, Leroy Williams, Randy Carr, and Terry Shirrell made it to Regionals after a fourth-place team finish. Leroy Williams and Randy Carr also advanced to the state meet. Several new school records were also set: Leroy Williams, Terry Shirrell, and Randy Carr set records in the 300 low hurdles, the 200 and discus, respectively. Leroy Williams also tied the school ' s high hurdles record. The team ' s Most Valuable Player Award went to Terry Shirrell. The Citizenship Award went to Leroy Williams. Coach Malandro commented, The team improved a lot from the last season. Considering the talent we had, I was pleased with most things. The coaches worked well together, but it was difficult to follow the legendary coaching of Ted Richer. Next year ' s team should have a lot of depth, but we ' ll need more in sprints, high jump, long jump, and relays.

One Stroke Away This year ' s 1 987 girls golf team had an excellent season. Out of 1 5 meets they won 1 3 and gave up only two defeats. This year we had our best season ever; we were only one stroke away from going to the state finals, stated coach Don Huffman. Junior Janet Miller was selected the Most Valuable Golfer for the ' 87 season. One of her qualifications for receiving this award was advancing to regionals after winning against all of the County Club schools. The one thing that satisfied me the most about this year ' s team was when Janet Miller advanced into regional play, stated Coach liuffman. The Citizenship award was proudly accepted by Senior Kara Ogle. Senior Kara Ogle chips out of the sand Row 1 — Kara Ogle, Coach Don Huffman, Carmen Dodds.
