5PDRT5 Participation in sports has greatly increased over the past few years. More people are becoming more active than ever before. All sports are gaining in popularity, but individual sports such as tennis, swimming, badmitton, handball, and water skiing are gaining the most in popularity and participation. With this trend towards participation in previously less-common sports has come a change in attitude by students towards physical fitness. With students’ increasing awareness of the relationship between good health and exercise has come a greater desire to actively participate in sports. Participation trends in the future show great strength and growth in girls’ sports, with growth also in the area of aerobics, including jogging, swimming, bicycling, and soccer. Aerobics appears to be gaining greater attention as people become more concerned with personal health. Are sports no longer an audience-centered activity? 1. Tammy Boos positions to set the ball. 2.

FOOTBALL Scoreboard is a first for yearbook JEFFERSON OPPONENT 14 HPfc Whitewater 26 14 Fort Atkinson 19 18 Brodhead 12 6 Milton 18 20 Evansville 26 28 Clinton 27 34 Beloit-Turner 16 50 Parkview 0 13 Edgerton 20 Conscious of the yearbook theme “Flight,” the yearbook staff presents a new feature: a full spread scoreboard heading the sports section. It is hoped that this will prove to be an easy and attractive reference. As indicated by the scoreboard, the Eagles won many of the RVC honors. For the second year in a row the basketball, softball, baseball, and track teams captured championships. In addition to support provided by fans at home games, cheerers filled a record-breaking seventeen buses for away games. The yearbook staff wishes to extend a special thank-you to Mr. Leipold, Athletic Director, for his help on these pages. Without his help the results would have been impossible to achieve. The football team (top) practices the kick-off in the daily after-school session. Brady Stoner (center) reflects many hours of practice as co-captain by pinning an opponent. Warming up before a meet, Donna Riedl and Carla Buske (bottom) run through stretching exercises together.
