We had so many ups and downs as a team it's hard to say what our best game was. Like in the Auburn game, defense slipped a little, but offense scored the most points ever. It all balanced out pretty well. fBrian , Seagoj I worked all season to make ff? all-conference so it was very gratify- K' ing when I made it. Uohn Robbinsj We're scheduled to get out of prac- tice at 6:30 every day but we're lucky to get out by 7:30. Before a game we have to go inthe gym and lay on the mats with the lights out and think about our assignments for more than an hour. CCraig Fosterj Everybody was fired up for the West game, but we always have a traditional rivalry against East. We got wiped by East last year, so I guess that's when I played my best. C.Ieff Stricklandj 14 1? UPPER LEFT: Defensive players Scott Heidel and John Robbins attempt to reach an on- coming opponent before he escapes all tack- Iers. UPPER CENTER: AI Shefler makes a backbreaking attempt to stop a rushing Free- port player. UPPER RIGHT: Bruce Scherwat rejoices after the Vikings recover a Palatine fumble. CENTER LEFT: All-conference, all- state winner Scott Boettner and Mitch Nord- moe watch anxiously as defense tries to win back the ball, CENTER: Mitch Nordmoe keeps a watchful eye on his opponents as he races for a first down. BOTTOM LEFT: Somebody grab that ball! BOTTOM RIGI-IT: Viking blockers prepare the way for Torn Walsh as he aids in GuiIford's defeat of Belvidere. CENTER RIGHT: Craig Sahlstrom is ready as quarterback Brent Branca throws him a key pass. Athletics 91

nfl? 'During the first half l'm so nervous I can't play my best, but second half I'm more relaxed. If somebody really hits me hard or something it makes me more ready to play. CAI Sheflerj The all-conference banquet was fun. especially since I missed basket- ball practice to go to it. CRandy Stew- ardj I nearly got my head knocked off at the Boylan game. Considering ev- erything, l'd say my best game was the West game. We played pretty darn good that night, but we just didn't get any breaks. 1DougZimmermanb 90 Athletics

K Winning that big a game CWestD really en- couraged us to go on and win a lot more games. CBob Ferolieb We were pretty sure we'd win against West because we beat them so bad last year. Now Boylan is the one to Worry about but I really think vve'll beat them. We should win the rest of the games.
