Illinois Valley High School - Trailblazer Yearbook (Cave Junction, OR)

Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1984 volume:

' comin t Another brick was added to the wall of education. On Sept. 6, 1983, students once again filled the halls of IVHS, many of them not knowing whether their wall would have to remain half-built. If the 1983 school budget did not pass, schools would close, ending the school year in October. Fortunately, bal- lot A was approved. Ballot B failed by one vote but after a recount passed by a comfortable margin, thus assuring a complete school year for all. Spirit at IVHS was extraordinarily high. The halls were filled with a feeling of intensity and enthusi- asm. Students showed at pep rallies and games that they believed in their teams. They never stopped cheering, even when their team was behind. There were many changes at IVHS during the 83- 84 year, including new principal Hugh Fulton, and several new teachers. The library had a new security system installed, and a 15 minute break was added in the mornings. All of these things combined made IVHS an even better school than it was before. As the year came to end the seniors looked back on the many years of building they had done: build- ing a wall consisting not only of an education but something much more, an ability to get along in the world, and the wish to be somebody. They had many doors open to them now, and could be what- ever they wished. The Trailblazer staff wishes the seniors the best of luck in everything. Goodbye and Good Luck, Class of 84!!!

This served to unite the different classes and bring more spirit to the school. Activities for the week included: Hat and Sock Day, 50's and 60's Day, Opposite Sex Day, Punk Day, and Red and White Day. Also, this year, there was a new addition to the activities. On Opposite Sex Day, there was a powder puff football game, with the seniors and freshmen playing against the sophomores and juniors, who won 14-0, while the (male) cheerleaders cheered them on. And, of course, there was the traditional bonfire, parade, and Homecoming game and dance. Portia Switzer was crowned Homecoming queen, with her princesses, Darla Billhimer, Anita Hoskins, and Larissa Stewart. Even though IV lost to Rogue River, students ended the week with a feeling that IVHS was truly the best.

Hardfought and tough is what the 1983 Varsity Volleyball season proved to be for the Cougars. League play was very competitive and the team learned the importance of setting both individual and team goals as the Cougars faced tough competition throughout the whole season. Coach Loomis, in his second year coaching Varsity Volleyball at 1. V, felt the team did well winning 4 matches and staying right in there with the rest. He also felt that although they were 4 and 6 in league play, they played much better than the figures show. The high point of the season came when LV. beat state-bound North Valley at the Myrtle Point tournament. Also, they played their best games of the season at district playoffs. Awards were given to Martie Mayfield for most valuable player, Tawana Cuddie for most inspirational, and Karen McLennan for most improved. Also Sheila Campbell received Skyline Conference Honorable Mention and Martie Mayfield received Unanimous Skyline Conference Nomination to Second Team. Coach Loomis said that he was very proud of girls and wished them all the best of luck in the future. Coach Loomis. All hail I. V. VolleyballI' Volleyball 23 Determination to be the best they could be was the attitude of the Illinois Valley J. V. Volleyball team which consisted of a group of talented athletes. A combination of skill, determination and a good attitude made the 1983 J. V. Volleyball season a successful one with a 9- 3 record. Jean McCormick, in her 4th year coaching Volleyball and her first year as the J. V. coach, felt the success of their season was influenced greatly by the good attitudes that the girls had about both themselves and their team as a whole. This years most valuable player award went to Hattie Boswell. Anita Hoskins received the most inspirational player award and the most improved players were Michelle Sloan and Larissa Stewart. Special recognition went to Karen Mowles for having 10O% serving for 6 consecutive games. Coach Jean McCormick said that she appreciated and would like to thank all the girls for their hard work, dedication to the Team , and for all the fun they had during the season. Loner Sheila Campbell displays poise and style. When Freshman Volleyball Began, only 3 Freshman Girls were interested enough to go out for the sport. However, as time progressed there surfaced a sufficient number of girls to produce a Freshmen team. The Freshman Volleyball Team, with only one win, may not have been the best team, but they worked hard and did their best. Their Enthusiasm for the sport and total effort during practices and games, made the season an extraordinary success. Throughout the last five games the girls improved tremendously. Basic skills, teamwork, and a competitive attitude were developed and strengthened throughout the season. Finally, Coach Amis said There wasn't a single person on the team who didn't improve remarkable during the season. Acrobat Angie Hackstock bumps the ball over the net. Volleyball 24 I RALLY TRAINERS Taping wrist, knees, helping athletes prepare for games and helping them if injured was the purpose of a new program started at I. V. this year by Linda Hoback. A few select people who volunteered their time made up this athlete trainers group and devoted a lot of extra time and effort in learning how to properly tape and care for injured players. The trainers were: senior, Diane Milner; junior, Tina Turiace; and eighth grader from L.B.M.S., Brian Proett, who volunteered his services and even came after school to work with the other trainers.

A late beginning for our Rally Squad, varied uniforms, and a couple of novice advisors didn't deter the spirit of Shanna Rhoten, Lynda Cilliam, Lana Bersaglieri, Kim Nelson, Jill Stocking, and Laura Batie. The Rally members attended a leadership workshop, sponsored a dance, practiced, practiced, practiced, (all but one were sophomores), and are fast becoming a quality team. They are looking forward to next year and are planning more pep assemblies, rally workshops, fund raisers, and of course, an abundance of spirit.

The 1983 Cougar Varsity Football team had what you could call a disastrous season. The team, which was made up ot solely underclassmen, led to a young and inexperienced team. This reason of inexperience, resulted in a win loss record of O il for the whole season. The winless Cougars brightest moment perhaps came when they travelled to Lakeview. If it weren 't for a tumbled punt on the 13 yard line and a broken play that resulted in a fumble near the end-zone, the Cougars might have won. However, due to costly mistakes, the Cougars once again were the losers when the buzzer rang at the end of the game. Another climax in the Cougars' season came when they hosted the South Umpqua Lancers. The Lancers, who were rated in the Top 10 poll, stayed even with the Cougars for the first half, with the score being 22-21. However, without replacements the battered Cougars lost their spirit and finally the game, 49-21. Even with the loss of all their games, the Cougars were still able to improve and gain valuable experience. Coach Jim Richardson ended up by adding Even though we were young and small, we still played well against some bigger and more experienced teams. Finally, there are seven returning starters next year and Cougar Varsity Football is expected to improve. With this in mind, Richardson said, This was a positive learning and building year that has prepared us more for next year.

The fall sports atmosphere was different at 1. V. this year as a new sport was added along with the regular program. The sport was soccer! The team was very fortunate to have to play only one game in the rain. It seemed as if the clouds were holding the rain until the end of the season hut couldn t manage and had to let out the rain on the last game. The crisp, clean air and rustling leaves added to the excitement of this new sport. The new soccer team had a difficult time getting uniforms and transportation. Soccer was a new sport and it was at the same time as football, therefore, many football supporters weren't willing to budget soccer funds. The amazing thing is that a brand new football uniform cost as much as 15 soccer uniforms. The team was very fortunate to have a coach with a lifetime of soccer experience. The assistant coach was an excellent disciplinarian. The players had excellent practices which were characterized by diligence and hard work. The season was highlighted by a 1-0 upset over Medford. They also beat archrivals North Valley twice in two outings. Their low point was the last game, which they lost to Grants Pass 3- 2. In the second half of that game, they had numerous chances to score, however, they never capitalized on them. Overall the team did an outstanding job and earned a second place for their efforts. After the smoke had cleared and the rain started the coaches had chosen Harry Porter as the most valuable player, Jeff Cusumano and John Luerding were the most improved. The most inspirational award went to both the team captains, Asa VanGelder and Brian Stephens. The team looks on while a Grants Pass opponent heads the ball.

This years cross country team ran with many inexperienced runners, nevertheless, they had a good season. At the season's end every member of the squad had improved his or her best time by at least one minute. First year coach Ron Pope stated, We just don 't have enough girls to fill out the girl's program. In spite of this, the girls did well. The girl's team was led by Jill Garner who placed fourth at district and fifty-second at state. Jill ran well this year and placed in the top ten of every invitational she attended. Elaine Payne also did well this season, by improving her running style tremendously. Mandy Hill and Corinthia Camp completed the girls team. The boys team was led by Jeff Hodder and Jeremy Hart. Both Jeff and Jeremy improved greatly by the end of the season. Andy Spliethof, John Sloan, and Steve O'Donnell rounded out the boy's varsity team. The 1983 cross country team rounded out the season with Jill Garner and Jeremy Hart getting Most Valuable Runners, Jeff Hodder and Elaine Payne as Most Inspirational, and Andy Spliethof and Corinthia Camp as Most Improved.

Varsity players Darla, Martie, Kim, Rose, and Hattie fight for the rebound. The Cougars started the season with high hopes and great anticipation. Seven returning senior letterwomen accentuated a team short on height but long on experience. The Cougarettes, however, ran into stiff opposition and learned quickly that it would take more than experience to bring home a win for the Red and White. In the first half of the season, the Cougars went up against three of the top teams in the state and played very well, but came up on the short end of the score. The Cougars did manage to defeat Lakeview and South Umpqua and end the first half of league play with a 2-7 record. Improvement was needed, and Coach Campbell looked to the bench where sophomores Hattie Boswell and Angie Hackstock, and freshman Lori Jenson provided the necessary energy to spark the Cougars to a much better 4-3 mark in the second half. It was the season of the seniors. Chrisi Buckhaults had a fine first half of the season getting much needed rebounds for the Cougars, but early graduation lifted Chrisi from the roster. At forward position Kim Terrell had the hot shooting hand, dropping in almost 50% of her shots from the field. Rose Cunningham provided a strong rebounding center for the team Girls Basketball 33 MORE GIRLS and pleased the crowd with smooth hook shots from inside. Dawn Dailey and Diane Milner gave the team a hustling spirit on defense and sparked the team to several victories with quickness and determination. Martie Mayfield was an all-league pick in 1983 and didn't let the Cougars down in 1984. Martie’s quick hands caused numerous turnovers by the opposition as she collected a record-setting 56 steals for the season of only 17 games. She also had a team high 48 assists adding to her indispensibility on the team. When the Cougars needed scoring, they looked to Darla BiUhimer. Darla led the team in almost every category, scoring 194 points which kept her in the top ten scores in the league for the entire season. She also hit 58% of her free throws, many in crucial situations. She played several different positions during the season but felt most comfortable at the baseline spot. Both Martie and Darla are up for all-league honors. One One high point of the season was a surprise slow-down game against the number one team in the state, Henley. The Cougars played excellent defense and a control offense and held the touted Hornets to just 19 points in the game. With only two minutes to play, the Cougars were only four points behind, but Henley showed their stuff and in the end, the Cougars were defeated, but not before an overconfident Henley squad. Another must win situation was against arch rival North Valley, where the Cougars rallied from a nine point deficit to defeat the Knights on their home court after North had handed IV three earlier losses. 1984 was a success story, not to mention exciting basketball. Lori At the beginning of the season, first year Frosh coach, Cary Thornhill, said that the Girl's Freshman Basketball team would concentrate on team play, team intensity, and basic skills technique. Coach Thornhill was very pleased with the advancements and improvement in each one of those areas. Although they only outscored one team in their season, the Girl's Frosh Basketball team was very competitive and were always in the ball game. They began the season with 10 girls and all 10 hung in there, developed as a team and kept their spirit throughout the season. It gave coach Thornhill great satisfaction to see the Frosh girls develope into team players and more confident individuals. The 1983-84 Girl's Freshman Basketball team showed a lot of promising talent to be proud of in the years to come. kicks into action. 34 Girls Basketball The Girl's Junior Varsity Basketball team was composed of a fairly young and small line-up of only seven girls, half of which also saw Varsity playing time. There were only two Juniors, four Sophomores, and one Freshman. This didn't hurt them however, as they completed their season with 11 wins and 4 losses. No one player was the key for the team's success, instead it was a contribution of hustle and determination made by each player on the team. Coach Jay Monier, who brought to the team, 10 years of prior coaching experience, assessed the season, saying They were an excellent group of young ladies who always played with enthusiasm, had fun, enjoyed playing together, and were a pleasure to coach.

New Varsity coach Larry Bulaich greeted a squad boasting only one player with varsity experience — Joe Cealon. He enjoyed the challenge very much, though, and was pleased with the boys and set about learning and drilling on the fundamentals. They really worked hard. The first week of 1984 was a very exciting one. Playing three games in five nights, the Cougars showed a lot of heart in winning at Riddle in overtime, defeating South Umpqua at home, and hosting North Valley to their second lowest point total of their perfect regular season. The most valuable Cougar of 1983- 84 was Joe Cealon. Joe led the team in 11 statistical categories, including most rebounds (179) and points (301). Johnny Scaffin and Bobby Thornhill did great jobs quarterbacking the t team, and along with John Sloan, were outstanding in the assist category. Though they had a tough (4-16) season, the boys hung together. They stunned the crowd at Henley into silence, nearly defeating the Hornets. They lost to Lakeview, a solid tournament team, by only three points. JUST A FEW MORE SHOTS They saved their best for last. Trailing by three against Douglas without the ball, and with only two minutes left, the Red and White sent the game into overtime with eight seconds left on Kenny Meads' fourteen footer. The Cougars won in the extra period on John Sloan's perfect pass to Rick Rotmans for the clinching hoop. Meads, Mason, Sloan, Scaffin, and Rotmans showed that I. V. can go out with guts and a lot of class. The Cougars can be proud of their great determination and desire to improve. The Cougar boys also displayed excellent sportsmanship and manners wherever they went. I. V. congratulates the 1983-1984 boys varsity basketball team. illhimer receives pass for an open shot. The J.V. Boy's Basketball team went from what was a poor Sophomore team to a quality Junior Varsity team. The season was highlighted by a double overtime loss against North Valley, who had beaten the Cougars by 21 points the first time they met. Another example of the improvement over the season was a seven point loss to Rogue River, a team that had out scored I.V. by 34 points the first time around. They never gave up wether they were behind by 2 points or 22 points. The goal of each individual was to make themselves into the best basketball player they could be. They were all well on their way to doing Just that during their 1983-84 basketball season. Coach Jim Richardson said thet The team always played smart, under control basketball and were a pleasure to coach. Success for the Freshman Boy's Basketball team was measured by improvement. Teams that were bigger, quicker, and more skilled, who had beaten them easily on the first meeting, found themselves in a real battle against I. V. later in the season. The Freshman Boy's Basketball team didn't give up or make excuses when they lost, but stuck together and worked all that much harder in practice. Finally, in the last five games of the season, they got a chance to make their game work. Fast breaks, mixed with a variety of defenses finally gave them three victories.

The mat stats worked closely with the wrestling team this year, keeping detailed statistics of individual matches, helping keep score at home and away matches on video and taking photographs of wrestling action. They traveled on every trip, including the state tournament, to provide humor, wit, and serious support at all times. The wrestlers felt secure in knowing that, win, lose, or draw, the stats cared and supported them. Patty Miller and Sami Hawkins have been stats for two years and more or less helped the other stats learn stat duties. Patty and Deana Smith were seniors and their talent, help, and especially their leadership were invaluable. Juniors Terri Bare and Larissa Stewart, along with freshman Renee Govreau were efficient in every aspect of the job, often expending extra effort and time to make sure things were completed correctly and on time.

Individual performances by a few wrestlers highlighted the wrestling season this year. Numerous injuries, bouts of illness, and a general lack of support by potential wrestlers in the student body led to a 6-16 season record and a sixth place finish at the Skyline District Tournament. Due to a small turnout, reduced further by injuries, the Cougars often had to forfeit 18 to 24 points, which could have been the deciding factor in 12 of the 16 losses. With only one senior, this was a young team, but the wrestlers, when healthy, performed well for the young team they were. They worked hard in practice and wrestled tough in matches. They had their good days, when every move worked, and their bad days. They executed their share of individual upsets, and were themselves upset a few times. When all the wrestling was done, many Cougar wrestlers had walked away from touraments with the championship bracket in their hands. As individuals. Cougar wrestlers were respected by other schools for their wrestling skills, competitiveness, and deportment wherever they competed. During the season, this team gained in maturity, poise, and experience. Individually, the Cougars placed seven wrestlers at the district tournament. They were: Rich Wright, Hwt., Robin Savage, 130 lbs., sixth, Asa Van Celder, 106 lbs., fifth, Darryl Gill, 115 lbs., fourth, and Mark Miller, 157 lbs., third. Kevin Gill and Ruben Costello wrestled their way through the brackets with excellent efforts to district championships at 148 and 106 respectively. Both wrestlers competed at the Oregon State Wrestling Tournament held in Springfield. There, Costello narrowly missed advancing into the finals and finished fourth in a strong weight class. Gill wrestled well, but did not place. Other team members who wrestled on the varsity team this year and did a fine job were: Airin Isenagle, 98 lbs., Steve Casas, 98 lbs., Mike Scott, 123 lbs., Chris Brown, 136 lbs., John Webb, 141 lbs., and Scott Phillips, 157 lbs. Guy Smith, Paul Greco, Micah Meidinger, and Harry Porter had their season cut short by injuries. No junior varsity wrestlers were able to finish the season.

They all worked very hard attempting to cover all the boys and girls games, a task that is easier said than done for five girls who must also maintain a superior grade average. The school spirit each girl brought to the game was in evidence right up to the final moments of each game. SPECIAL OLYMPICS Front Row.

To be considered for membership, a student must maintain a 3.5 grade point average or better, and demonstrate each of the characteristics on which the National Honor Society is based. National Honor Society is mainly a service oriented group. The group sponsored its annual Jog-a-Thon, raising money for scholarships.

This past school year, one 1VHS journliasm class produced two metro newspapers: The Student Spectra and the Cougar Chronicle. In addition to the metro issues, tabloid papers were also printed. Editors, Dawn Dailey and Sean Boyd, created excellent papers focusing on school news and local community events of interest to students. Photographer Julie Odom also did an excellent job of providing photos for feature stories and sports. Rose Cunningham and Kristen Taylor, as managers, worked hard to generate enough advertisements to cover printing costs. In the final senior issue , a two color front page was produced for the first time in a school paper at IVHS. Journalism Front Row, L to R-Julie Odom.

STUDENT COUNCIL Secretary, Darla Billhimer The student council consists of ASB, class, and club officers. This group of students, each representing the interests of a larger group of students, presides over student government decisions and activities. Among the responsibilities of the student council are activity planning and coordination. This year, Student Council organized an eighteen hour dance-a-thon, a slide show, and many other activities, along with regular yearly responsibilities including homecoming and a blood dri ve. The student council developed the Big Brother Big Sister Program in to a yearly activity. This year's student council was not only highly motivated, but with more time available (thanks to a new leadership class), their activities were highly successful.

The 1983-1984 Dance Team began this year building two floats for the Labor Day Festival. They also held car washes, ran a pizza roll booth at the festival, washed dishes for the Lions, and washed windows downtown to raise money for their uniforms. We enjoyed their performances at the football games, and truly appreciated the spirit they gave us doubling as a Rally squad during the first few weeks of school. A special toast goes to Deana Smith and Patty Miller, (team captains), and Lynda Gilliam and Susan Watts, who never missed a fund raiser, practice, or game. 54 Debra Lowery demonstrates while other dance team members get new ideas. KINE-TICS The Ski Club raised money for their Mt. Ashland and Mt. Bachelor ski trips by sponsoring dances and car washes. To meet the high cost ($15-$25 Mt. Ashland and $21-$31 to Mt. Bachelor) of the sport of skiing, the club had to cut many corners on spending. They split their $25 motel rooms ten ways, took sack lunches, had Mr. Davison drive the leased school bus, and took advantage of 20% group discounts. They usually took about one-half of their load or 16 new beginners on each trip. The ski bums tried to help the beginners once in a while, but the higher slopes usually won out over budding romances. They had no accidents this year and have the snow chains down to a science now. Mr. Davison says that his class screw-looses are different people out on the slopes away from the classroom; he really enjoys them out there.

I can't remember our job number. Who stole my dummy sheet? Where's my pen? Who has all of the grease pencils? How come Larissa s name is on all of the rulers? Asa has been in the dark room so long that his eyes are turning green. Are these Sami's and Adrianna’s coffee cups from two weeks ago? This is just a sample of a daily class in yearbook. This is not all of what makes up a yearbook. Class members sell ads and participate in other activities to pay for the remaining amount beyond student prices of $13 and $15 of $25 to the publisher for each individual book. It takes a lot of determination to construct a yearbook, but it is always a reward to set back at the end of the year and look at what one has accomplished. People that enroll in Annual class have to be ambitious and willing to work. Most people do not understand now hard it is to put a yearbook together. There are many decisions that have to be made. As outsiders and newcomers do not know, there are many confusing things to be learned, such as, caps, picas, croppers, dummy sheets, triplicate sheets, type size, and much more.

New this year were the Halloween dance and treasure hunts for all students. OLE' was led this year by its esteemed Jefe, Katrina Catrina Davis, Jefe Tambien, Michelle Adela Sloan, Secretaria, Jill Julieta Garner, and el Banquero, Matt Mateo” Kauffman. The Math letes were on top of the entire A A and AAA League until February, when Medford finally took the top honors away in a furious battle of logic puzzles. We though that our awesomeness'' was due to the calculus preparation that our students got. We did our best to keep the pressure on Medford through the calculus and physics programs. Captain Sanders proved to be beyond great in selecting the best contestants for each meet. 58 Activities Eager ice cream eaters drool while Spanish Club members serve ice cream.

It was rated 7.1 on the Richter Scale. The earthquake left 25,000 people homeless. Many of these people died after the quake as a result of below freezing mountain temperatures, although the Turk is Red Crescent (equivalent of the U.S. Red Cross) provided shelter, clothes, and food to as many victims as possible. Over 1,125 people were reported dead, and many more missing. Later the same day, another earthquake rocked the HinduKush Mountains in Afghanistan. There was extensive damage to property and loss of life reported. These earthquakes followed on the heels of a major quake in the northwestern United States, the center of which was located in Idaho. Many cities and towns sustained damage to homes, but older businesses took the brunt of the damage. Two school children were killed in that quake.

Redwood Hwy. Cave Junction, OR 97523 592-2549 J r 1983 and 1984 brought new fads in fashion, movies, and thought to the American youth. It was a time for Levi SOl's, denim jackets, and short, sassy haircuts with a splash of color. Music, too, took a turn, to new wave and hard rock, with groups such as Def Leppard and Quiet Riot making very promising debuts. The Star Wars trilogy was completed with The Return of the Jedi, and teenage sex comedies like Risky Business and Porkys II increased in popularity. New precedences were also set. The first woman astronaut went up into space, as did the first black astronaut. The health and fitness trend set the pace for such movies as Flashdance and Stayin' Alive. In politics, many changes occurred. Secretary of the Interior James Watt was forced to resign after a racial slur concerning his cabinet members. Over 200 Marines sent to Lebanon were attacked by a suicidal terrorist and killed, and Marines were sent to the island of Grenada when U.S. Medical students were taken hostage. 1983 and 1984 were years of joy and sadness, hope and reflection; years that will forever embrace the memories of those who were there.

Sunday, October 23, 1983, was a sad day for all Americans. An explosion devastated the Marine Battalion Landing Team 4-story Headquarters at the Beirut Airport in Lebanon. Over 200 Marines and Navy personnel were killed. The explosion occured when fanatic Shiite Muslims who were loyal to Iranian religious leader Ayatollah Khomeini drove an explosive laden truck through the airport parking lot, and into the back of the building, killing the driver and most of the Marines inside, many of whom were still asleep. The event was called the bloodiest attack on U.S. servicemen since the Viet Nam War. About 50 French servicemen were killed in a simultaneous attack on the French barracks 3 miles away. The Marines had arrived in Beirut 13 months prior to the tragedy, along with other multinational forces who were stationed there to help the Lebanese restore order to the war-torn country. r r v Albertsons The change will save you money. 901 N.

Producing a good yearbook takes a lot of money. The bulk of this money comes from ad sales, and the rest from yearbook sales. The Trailblazer staff wishes to thank all the businesses from the Illinois Valley and Grants Pass that supported the 1983-84 Trailblazer by buying ads. It's good to know that so many business people in Josephine county care about our yearbook. The support they give us now, and have given us through the years is truly appreciated.

Although the season was disappointing in terms of team wins, numerous individual improvements and performances partially compensated for some of the losses. I.V. continued to play tough ball even when they were eliminated from any chance to qualify for state early in the season. The team's performance for this season was characterized by the way they played each game; with determination and sportsmanship. Coach Jay Monier was happy with their efforts and was proud to be associated with this fine team.

Junior Varsity Baseball The J.V. Baseball team started the season with a big win over Gold Beach but soon ran into heavy competition. The Cougars lost the next six games to some good teams and finished the season with a 3-9 record. Seven games were rained out. There were many outstanding individual efforts by various players throughout the season but they were not enough, unfortunately, to bring in more wins for the team. Coach Jeff Campbell felt the spirit of the team was high and each member could feel proud of his individual improvement.

In addition, due to illness, injuries, and inexperience fourteen different lineups were used in the eighteen games played. However, improvement was plainly visible in all areas. Many of the individual improvements were due to Coach Larry Bulaich's help and attention. The Cougars never gave up, and often scored well in the late innings. The 1984 season had many positive aspects that contributed to the building softball tradition at I.V.

Junior Varsity Softball This season was the first year of softball experience for many of the girls on the J. V. Softball team. Through the season they were tough and Coach Cary Thornhill, working hard on basic skills, felt the girls had learned enough softball to help them become better players. In addition, they had a good attitude, stuck together as a team and had a lot of fun throughout the season. Front Row. L to R- Kelli Moore, Renee Covreau, Tina Turiace. Back Row.

Although meet wins were low, (0 boys, 3 girls) the success came from individual improvement. PRs (personal records) fell at an unbelievable rate. Every meet saw at least 20 PRs being set. This was with only 21 athletes combined. An example of the effort given this year was the boys 1600m relay team. At the first meet, their time was 3:52.69. At district they improved to 3:34.81, a difference of 18 seconds or 4V2 seconds per relay member. For the future, the IV track team can only expect improvement; winning will take care of itself. And it looks like winning for IVHS Track is just a PR away. Front Row. L to R- Jeff Hodder. Kim Smith. Laura Cate, Amu Hoskins. Lori Jenson. Jill Garnet. Row 2. L to R- Dwayne Franklin Mandy Hill.

David Mortimore Golf The boy 's golf team was young and inexperienced, but they improved in every match. Even though they finished last in every match but one, they never quit trying. The girls team fared better in their matches. Golf was a new event for girls and the other teams they faced were also just getting their teams organized. The girls represented I.V. very well by winning most of their matches. Both teams conducted themselves well and Coach Rusty Gosser was very proud and pleased to have been their coach.

Special Olympics The State Track and Field Meet was held at the University of Oregon's track in Eugene. This event was the grand finale of the Special Olympics series and I.V. was well represented. Throughout the two day event, a Friendship Fair was open to all, which contained various games and fun booths. Sports clinics ran for additional training, and did parent information presentations. Each athlete did his her best and still had fun. A fitting motto for the Special Olympics team was: Let me win! But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt. s TENDER IS THE NIGHT Tender is the Night was the theme song for the 1984 Jr.-Sr. Prom, and June 2, 1984 was a tender night indeed. The 1VHS cafeteria was transformed by the Junior class into an image of Ancient Rome. The Roman theme was complemented by white columns set among the blue and silver of the rest of the room. To further set the mood, several sophomores roamed about in togas, bare feet, serving drinks to chaperones and students. This beautiful scene was greatly enhanced by the band. In Flight, who kept spirits high throughout the night with their excellent music. Later in the evening, the Prom Court was crowned. The Queen was Sheila Campbell, and the King was Mike Tardie. The rest of the court consisted of Princes Kevin Gill and Curtis Teel, and Princesses Kristen Taylor and Patty Miller. The 1984 Jr.-Sr. Prom was a huge success and a night that will be forever in the memories of those who were there. Prom 4 Prom Court: Sheila Campbell, Curtis Teel, Kristen Taylor, Kevin Cill.
