It has been over 30 years since any county school has been able to win three county titles in one year and this was made possible by the combined efforts of ads ministration, faculty, student body, players, and coaches. In addition to these special accomplish- ments, our baseball, wrestling, golf and cheerleading programs were also outstand- ing. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL.
