Seventh period found most students in a study hall or just in the halls. Our well-established comput- er lab commanded by Mr. Unruh became a great success and was usually quite busy. And only four from each study hall were allowed in the library. Some of these changes were drastic, but the Frenchtown students took them in stride. 1. Seniors Roxanne Stavish and Kevin Clark work hard (?) on the computers. V This school still does have its weirdos as proved by Sue Jostes. 6 Student Life IN GENERAL 5.

Pep Rally 15 The students of 1985-86 were very active in all types of activities. Activities ranged from football in the fall to the student legislature in the spring. The year was very produc- tive. More students participated in extra-curricular activi- ties than in past years. Although the students were frus- trated at things the administration did, both got along well during the course of the year. As a whole, the year went exceptionally well, despite a few mishaps. 1. A few of the freshman girls talk about the days gossip. 2. Tim Howard. Shane llaherlock, and Randy Trenary each have their own problems. 3. Mary Jo Kron fights desperately to get her locker open. 16 Student Life Student Life 17 18 Favorites Car __________ Sport_________ Movie ________ T.V.

There was controversy on whether or not here was going to be an annual for the 1985-86 school year. The class was faced with a rather large bill from the year before. However, the class came up with some fund-raising money which included selling ads. school logo jackets, and selling Christmas wreathes. But they still had to raise the price of the annual itself. The class advisor was Mr. Briney. the editor was Shawn Hayman. Tammy Taber was business manager, and the photographer was Brent Williams. The other members of the annyal class really participated and worked hard. These members were: Cheree Friedrich. Sam Ockler. Gina Cranston (first semester), Tim Howard, Stephanie Gonder. and Billie F.sterbrook. Overall, the year went well despite the hardships they had to overcome. 41 Rhondj Nelson Karl Nikoleyezik 12 Seniors 1 jmm Schulte Helen Smith Roxanne Scavish Rick Sandefur Janice Scharberg Seniors 43 r H 0 s E C R A Z Y S E N 1 0 R S 1 Roxanne stifles a yawn. 2.

Although a loss to cross town rivals Loy- ola the week prior, the Broncs able to put it back together for the district title. The Broncs had an impressive record of 8 wins and 2 losses. Thirteen seniors and five starting juniors showed for a sound team with lots of depth. With 21 All Conference picks, and seven All State picks the Broncs showed how much talent they possessed. A tough loss against Cut Bank in the quar- ter finals of the State Tournament put the 86 team out of the running for the State Tournament. I.

The girls team however, was one of the strongest teams yet. The 1985- 86 season was a very successful season as the team won many meets and had personal bests from most runners. The distance for the 1986-87 year is being changed from two miles to three miles because of the equality ruling. Mr. Strothman feels this ruling is to our advantage because of the ability and desire of the girls. Cross Country 75 76 Boys Basketball The 1985-86 boys basketball team faced a dif- ficult year. With a new coach and not many players out, the season ahead looked like a tough one. But, the team worked well together and by the end of the 85-86 season the team with a 3-15 record, found themselves in district play. They were defeated by Corvallis in their first game, but in their second game they rolled over Superior with a 66-55 victory. They then faced Corvallis for a second time and lost a tough fought game by just four points. They ended up fourth in the district and on their way to division- al play at Hamilton the following week. They ran into a little bad luck and were put out after playing two extremely good games against Plains (49-73) and Troy (57-61). All in all the team came a long way from the beginning of the season and deserve our con- gratulations. Kent Graves shows us his stuff. Scon Lucier with a look of toral concentration.

Boys Basket ball 79 THE TEAM WITH THE Only the second year and already, OUTSTANDING! That's how you would have to describe the 1985-86 Girls Volleyball Team. A team that works with just the basics and the support of all 24 players. The Bronc Volleyball Team has proven themselves to be unstoppable. With only one senior player, Janice Sharberg, gone from the team and the rest looking forward to the next season, it would seem that nothing could get in the way of a first place trophy at State. The season started out with a bang. With the coaching expertise of Rhonda Lund and Mike Madison there was enough girls out to form three teams. The volleyball team took first place in the Central District and then went on to take a second place in the Western Divisional Tournament at Loyola. The Broncs were a tough match for the Big Fork vals though and the matches were very close, 15-18, 9-15. and 6-15. The Broncs were once again matched against the Vais at state after they defeated Fairview and Twin Bridges in the consolation games. The game was won by the Big Fork Vais after two matches of 10-15 and 4-15, but the Broncs fought hard and were proud to take home a second place trophy from state. 80 Volleyball BASIC RAW TALENT Volley ball 81 Coach Rhonda Lund.

The results were impres- sive, they ended the year with a 8-2 dual re- cord and were conference co-champions with Arlee, the only other dual loss. The Broncs were also the team to beat in tourney action, where they brought home a third place tro- phy from our division, a second place trophy from Darby, and won the Arlee Tourney. Another great high point was placing fifth in the Dillon Tournament, ahead of 10 other AA, A, B, and C teams from three different states. To advance to state is a privilege in itself. Todd McCollum, Kenny Zuraff, Darrin Rinker, David and Steven Clarke, and Joe Miller all wrestled against the best in the state. Steven Clarke, for the second year in a row placed second at 105, his brother David placed again this year, receiving fifth at 132. The individual wrestlers all contributed to a great year and a one of the best teams ever. A special farewell to Todd, Kenny, Darrin and Tracy, the four seniors. GOOD JOB BRONCS!! 1.

The weath- er was very uncooperative causing several track meets to be cancelled. However, the weather didn't dampen the athlete's spirits for they continued to work hard. Thirteen athletes (6 boys and 7 girls) qualified for state where they ran perhaps the best all year. Moreover, three school re- cord were broken the first day competing. Bret Richard- son broke the 300 hurdle record, Robert Touchette set a new long jump record, and the girl's 1600 meter relay set a new school record with the legs of Debra Ramberg, Tammy Taber. Denielle Williams, and Cheree Friedrich. Rick Sandefur played a dominating role in going to state in four events. Due to the stiff competition, he managed to pull out two sixth place finishes. Robert Touchette jumped to a fifth place finish in the long jump and Tim Howard added more points by placing fourth in the pole vault. The girls however only had one placing at state and that was Cheree Friedrich who took fifth in the 800. 90 Track SPIRITS!!!! 1.

Tears fill our eyes Because it's all gone. We re starting a new life. We have to move on. We hope friends will keep in touch As the years pass us by. Although it hurts inside We'll try not to cry. We think of kindergarten And our first day, Now we've reached the end We are going away. How do you say good-bye To friends who mean so much? Will there be time To sincerely keep in touch?
