This year the D.H.S. swim team is climbing straight to the top, step by step. The team this year consists of 23 young men, and ladies. They work hard to reach each step closer to the top. You know some people think that just knowing how to swim makes you eligible for the Douglass High School swimming team, But it takes more lt takes hard work and training. People just don't realize the things that a person must go through to be in the swim team. To make the team you have got to work hard and strive to make it. There are a few basic things you should try to know. For instance, the five basic swimming strokes such as: the free style, the butterfly, the breast stroke, the back stroke, and the side stroke. There are a few other things such as learning to dive and to breathe the proper way. And so these are a couple of things that a good swim team should know. And believe it Douglass has one of the best teams not only because of their ability to swim. They have a not-so-secret weapon too. They have the best coach, Coach Elliott. She works hard with her team just to make it a step closer to reaching their Goal. The Top!

Wrestlers Gain The Respect They Deserve Wrestlers proved to be fighting TRO- JANS throughout the I979-80 school year. Ending the season with a I2-3 record, Douglass demonstrated its de- termination to be on top. ln the All- City tournament, senior Eddie Rodri- quez. finished with the championship title, wrestling at I57 lbs. Winfred Cof- fee, weighing l78 lbs., came in second place. Taking third was Delance Robin- son, at I68 lbs. and at I3O lbs., Lester Lancaster. Douglass finished fourth behind other competing high schools. Wrestlers also participated in the Clin- ton tournament. Throughout each and every match the Trojans continued to show their determination and will to win. When in times of desperation, the support from fans, parents and Mat Maids seemed to shine through and bring the wrestlers to a victory. As in all sports there were losses. And those losses will be learned from. This team consisted of twenty one membersf each and every wrestler put his all in the winnings of this year. With the loss of five seniors, the remaining wres- tlers will continue to carry out the well deserved reputation of the teams as a whole, and to keep Douglass on top. DHS Wrestlers: Front Row-Anthony Gossman, Robert Acosta, Eddie ' Rodriquez, Terry Wilson, Jeff Bishop. Delance Robinson. Second Row-Richard Pearce. Woddy Collins. Mike Smith. Winfred Coffee, Back Row- Curtis Lawson, and Coach Reed. l26 - Wrestling Another great pin Stevie Franklin proves to be a struggle for opposing Spartan.
