Among the outstanding players were fullback Eddie Nunes, tackle Ron Rocha, guard Neil Hodgeson, end Brian Ney, quarterback Mike Hawkins and guard Jeff Kyle. The loss of quarterback Brian Greer could have made the offense inconsistent, but Mike Hawkins filled in adequately. The offense was molded around the running of Eddie Nunes while the defense formed around the front four of Jerry Fuller, Dave Garcia, Ron Rocha and Steve Drewry. 5.

At the beginning of the year, Coach Loureiro remarked that the team was improving by using a variety of plays, such as the long pass, “or anything that will score. According to the Coach, Football is a great sport; it is educational and is great physically and mentally. 5. Team Captain Ron Rocha. 6. Eski kicks off to Livingston. 7.

The morning of the first home game, the rally squad served pancakes and eggs to the hungry Cougar Varsity. Each girl on the rally squad was also a guardian angel for at least one member of the football team during Homecoming Week.

VOLLEYBALL 25 Cougars Face Tough Season o o The 1978 Escalon Varsity Cougars showed much heart and determination, but were short on luck and talent. Mike Hawkins showed great ability in being a fine guard, while Mark Franceschetti, guard, and Jeff Wright, center, displayed much potential for next year's team. Bryan Ney played well during the season, despite an injury. Coach French said that he was very proud to have been associated with his team members because they never gave up, despite the trying season they had. 1 Jeff Wright trys for two points. 2.

This was the setting on January 27 when the Frosh-Soph and Varsity Cougars came up against one of the toughest teams of the season: the Escalon Faculty, better known as the Foxes. The Frosh-Soph team played the first half of the game, finishing with 40-62 in the Foxes' favor. The high scorer for the Frosh-Soph team was Ray Vaz. The last half was played by the Varsity Cougars who lost to the faculty with the final score 89-111.

Finishing the year with a 6-18 record, the Cubs demonstrated consistent improvement in team and individual game skills. Team captain Henry Plott was the Most Valuable Player while Dave Hamilton earned Most Improved Player honors. Coach Backovich stated he was exceptionally pleased with the overall team hustle for the entire season. If the athletes are giving their best, that's all you can ask for.'' 1.

Coach Fachner commented that he was very happy with this year's team because, through all of the adversity in this year's basketball program, the gentlemen never stopped trying. Standout performances were given by Nick Hodgson, Greg Largent, Paul Gardner, and Tony Terra, although, as Coach Fachner added, playing was constantly a team effort. 4. Freshman Basketball Team.

Male Found in Girls' Locker Room For the first time in the history of Eski High, a male coach invaded the girls' locker room. Mr. Jon Pearce launched both the Varsity and the Junior Varsity Girls' Basketball teams on very successful seasons. The girls liked Mr. Pearce because he taught them many different defensive and offensive plays which helped to further thier victories. Mr. Pearce felt he had an outstanding group of girls to coach. They had a lot of desire and hustle and he was very proud of them. The Varisty ended the season with a record of 7-5. The team was led to victory by Joan Lopes, averaging 19 points and 12 rebounds a game. Joan was followed by Wendy Middleton averaging 12 points a game. Wendy will be returning to lead Eski's team for the next two years. The Junior Varsity had an even better season than the Varsity, finishing with a 10-2 record. The team was led by four strong Sophomores, Loreen Rocha, Mary Morrell, Kathy Gonzlaes, and Jennifer Vest, and was helped by two outstanding Freshmen, Tammy Martin and leading rebounder Diane Bradley. These two will be comming back next year to the Junior Varsity. 1 Dianne Bradley jumps high to capture the ball for Eski. 2.

As a result, the 1978 edition of the Varsity team was inexperienced and the season proved to be a fundamental learning situation. The team included four boys who came back for their second varsity year, Mark Franceschetti being the most experienced along with Seniors John Campa, Paul Porter, and Stanley Xavier. Players up from the Frosh-Soph team were Larry Agostini, Jeff Wright, and Sophomore Scott Loureiro. The Frosh-Soph team showed the best potential in the league, however, due to the loss of several players to the Varsity, the team was dominated by Freshmen, but regardless of inexperience, it had a bright season. 5.

BASEBALL 41 Softball Rallies After Slow Start The girls' softball team had a slow start this season for several reasons. Batting was slow at the beginning with the promise of improvement as the season progressed. Pitcher Janie Casey did a good job without a relief pitcher to take over. Promising team members were Elaine Burke at second base, and Joan Lopes at short stop. Cathy Postma and Tammy Davis showed good batting averages. The toughest opponents were expected to be Livingston and Linden, with Patterson added to the league as a new team. 1. Janie Casey and Cathy Postma are ready to catch the ball. 2.

Coach Arellano felt that he had a fairly good team with approximately 18 varsity and 18 junior varsity members with about 22 girls. Some of the outstanding athletes were Juniors David Giuntoli and Brian Greer, who excelled in pole vaulting. Senior Ron Wayman's specialty was also pole vaulting. Bryan Ney, also a senior, was best at the high jump. Eddie Nunes, a Junior, and Jerry Fuller, a Senior, both threw the discus and shot. Senior Dana Martin excelled at the long jump. Among the many girl tracksters were Renee Longpre, who did an excellent job of jumping the hurdles and Mila Amerine, a Freshman, who did a great job of running. I.

The new law requires all Sophomores to take a proficiency test in English and Math. If they are not up to eighth grade level in both fields, they will be required to take it again in their Junior year. If the student still fails, he will be required to take special classes. A second new law, the Hart Bill, will also affect all students from the class of '81 on. In the future, all students who do not pass the proficiency exam must take special classes until they can demonstrate the required ability. If they cannot, they will not receive a diploma. Mr. Nicholas thought that this law was excellent because it means that all students will be able to write and calculate at a set grade level prior to graduation. We Remember Marlene Mostowski Marlene was a very special lady, a dear friend to all. Words cannot describe all of her wonderful qualities. Everyone who know Marlene loved her . . . she was that kind of a lady. -Jean Beggs I lost a friend I will never be able to replace and she showed me care, love, strength and courage. -Pat Coslet Marlene's philosphy was, If you can't say something good about someone, say nothing. She was a loyal, compassionate, happy person who loved her family, her job, the school and, especially, the students. We will all miss her. -John Hawkins 6 6. District Administrators Mr. John Mostowski, Mr Jacob Klessens, Dr. James Pritchard. 7. District secretaries Mrs. Marian Rogers, Mrs. Carol Wood, Mrs. Pat Reichmuth. New Additions to Faculty Escalon High had four new additions to the faculty. Expanding the science classes required an additional teacher, so Mrs. Rochelle Ferran taught geometry, forestry, life science and two chemistry classes. Attending San Jose State, Mrs. Ferran majored in physical science. Mr. Rusty Fachner taught most of Eski's general English classes. He attended Santa Clara, U.C. Davis and Cal State Hayward, majoring in English with a minor in philosophy and social science. Mr. Pete Arellano Mr. Mike Backovich Miss Pam Barlet Mrs. Louise Bass Mrs. Phyllis Brayton Ms. Joan Cinquini Another addition to the English department was Miss Sharie Jensen, teaching speech, general reading and history of American literature.

memory Preserving for us every precious thing That we have loved and treasured most. Deep in our hearts and minds. And it can bring again the winsome smiles Of those we see no more. -Annette May Jones For the sake of Good Times past and present, the El Escalon staff has sought to recapture the unique and precious events of our high school years, be they the first dance of the year, Homecoming, sports events, or participating in Chinese Fire Drills ' The 1977-1978 year was an important one for lower and upper classmen alike. Incoming Freshmen were beginning a new adventure, while the Class of '78 was embarking on a year of endings and new beginnings. For the sake of Good Times and the rough times too, the El Escalon staff salutes 1978 by saying to all who will listen, Let the Good Times Roll. The '78 Yearbook Staff 1.
