We Are The Champions! Our opening win over Park Tudor, winning the CSSD championship and estabUshing a 13 game winning streak were the highUghts of the season. Defense, rebounding, teamwork, good spirit and the right attitude for hard work helped break the school ' s record, 17 wins in a single season and 13 wins in a row. The CSSD championship was a very satisfying one for ISD since we had been in the frustrating position of 2nd or 3rd place for three years. The boys dedicated the first part of the season to prepare themselves for the tournament. They prepared themselves well and were obviously the best team at the tournament, says Coach Robert Kovatch. Forwards Mike Stultz and Scott Voltz, and Center Daric Brye made the 1983 CSSD All Star team. We would not have been such a strong team if Kelly McKee, Mike Penn, Mark Pearcy, Jim Hinders, and Larry Wilkins had not worked so hard against our starting five every night in practice. Often they were harder to practice against than some of our opponents, replied Mr. Kovatch. Scott Voltz (34), John Hazelett (40), Mike Stultz (44), and Brian Hartwell (32) stand ready to rebound the ball during the Wisconsin game. Jimmy Hinders is guarded by one of Lutheran ' s players during the ISD-Lutheran game. ISD won 71 to 43. 42 During the ISD-Tri-High game, Scott Voltz concentrates before shooting his foul shot.

During the season we kept having our ups and downs, says Coach Robbi Noland. Sometimes it seemed more downs than ups, she added. Of course our 3 wins were definitely great moments for the team, especially the first win over Sheridan. I had never seen the girls play so much as a team. Their minds were all into the game with nothing but victory on their minds and it showed, she said proudly. Carie Scales said she thought Sheridan was the toughest opponent this year. I felt very excited, happy, and hugged the team. she said. The team placed 5th in the Wisconsin tournament. Arlene Downing the team MVP, was chosen All-Star. I would like to say that all of these girls are a great bunch of girls. I feel this was one of the best groups ever! They had many close games and yet they tried their best, working hard and pushing themselves to become very good athletes. Coach Robbi Noland blows up at Regina Kyle (12), Debbie Kirby (22), Ryla Hartman (14), Carie Scales (25), Arlene Downing, Kim Mann, and Tracey Parker during the sectional against Pike.
