Tiddlywinks, et al. Demonstrated here is some of the footwear recommended for long-distance cruising. Just plain relaxing is the favorite exercise of this bunch. Snowman-building is fun, but tiring, as these DHS students discover. Behind this pair of innocent-looking faces are a couple of Champion schemers! All the sports mentioned so far are very popular with the students of Duncan High School. But we have neglected the unofficial sports played by students. Of these, probably girl- watching and guy-watching are the most popular. (The season also lasts the longest.) Snowball- throwing is very popular, but conditions for this are right only about one day a year. Water balloon- tossing is an important sport played in the spring, but it is mostly played off campus. Cruising the halls is an endurance activity enjoyed by some, but because it requires a great deal of stamina, it is not for everyone. Sliding down the bannisters is a sport enjoyed by some of the boys. They prefer doing it when there's someone watching they want to impress, but anytime no teachers are around is fine. This list is by no means complete, for there are many minor unofficial sports played at D.H.S., some of which are sanctioned by school authorities and many which are not! 23

Mark stands ready. Billy shows his winning form. 22 The Duncan players say, Let the games begin! Cindy tenses for the volley. The Tennis Teams had successful seasons, with the boys team going undefeated in the regular season. The girls also finished among the top teams. Duncan once again hosted the District Tournament, as well as the H.T. Clothier Invitational. In the latter tournament, the doubles team of Travis Merrell and Bobby Holder won first place and the team of Randy Norton and Alfred Luna finished fourth. Mark Moore placed third in singles. The Holder-Merrell duo won the Miami Invitational doubles championship a week later. In the District Tournament, Bill Hansen qualified for State in singles and Merrell and Holder qualified in doubles. Travis Merrell and Bobby Holder overcame all other teams to become the 1986 State Champions. Bobby sends one back over.
