. L. A l VARSITY FOOTBALL EAGLES FALL SHGRT IN STATE PLAYOFFS The 1979 varsity football season, highlighted by a 46-6 romp over Monroe, could scarcely have been better. ln their eight wins the Eagles outscored their oppo- nents by an average of 30.6 points. Behind the ex- perience of quarterback John Cooley the Eagles gained over 3,000 yards in just 10 games. The Eagles entered the Trico League championship with Waldport accompanied by a 7-0 record and a slight favoritism to win. ln the mud and driving rain the Irish ended the Eagles' chance for an undefeated season, 20-0. The Eagles rebounded well and thrashed the Crow Cougars 42-13 in the regular season finale. They had already earned a place in the state playoffs by de- feating the Siletz Warriors 34-0 in the homecoming game. The Eagles entered the tournament as the Trico League's second place representative. Harrisburg traveled to Scio and were heavily favored over the 6- 3 Loggers.

R LLY DANCETE M For the third straight year the varsity rally won the Trico League cheerleading championship at Crow High School. All members of the varsity rally went to summer camp, showed spirit and enthusiasm and won another award, USCA National Champion Team Top 10. To pay for their outfits the varsity rally and jv rally sold candles, put-on dances, raffled hats and gloves. The jv rally didn't win any awards but they helped the varsity color the gym with signs. Hard work and dedication turned out an exceptional dance team which not only performed for home games, but also traveled to Pendleton to provide half-time entertainment. Danceteam practiced every- day after school for perfection. They also danced at halftime during an Oregon basketball game. Their advisor was Ms. Gail Haynes. 1.
