Junior Varsity Soccer hen one thinks of glamour sports at Jesuit, JV Soccer doesn't often come to mind. Each year the varsity team has a great season, yet nobody realizes that the varsity players are usually products of the excellent JV program. lt takes a special kind of athlete to practice every day when he knows that there won't be any fans at his game. lt takes an even more special athlete to contribute to a successful team in this situation. These are the kind of athletes that make up the JV Soccer team. The squad suffered a setback early in the year when Coach Alberto Muniz, S.J. was promoted to varsity coach in order to perform his Galen Hall imitation in leading the varsity booters to a district title. Coming in to save the day was none other than Coach Steve Lewis, a dean among JV soccer coaches in the southeastern United States. Coach Lewis subsequently led the squad to a terrific season. The team was a diverse one, with freshmen, sophomores, and juniors. Juniors such as Scott Lang, Ernesto Arteta, and Tom Whittemore provided the leadership necessary for a successful season. Whittemore was a force in the goal for the Tigers, and Scott He-Man Lang literally terrified op- ponents with his scowl. l-lis ferocious reputation also earned him the nickname Clubber Lang. Freshmen such as Mark Abdoney and Mike Malone showed promise for the future, and sophomores Kent Olsen and Kevin Baker should contribute to the varsity level next year. 7x..f .sg sf ' at, T.

Varsity Wrestling nother outstanding athletic team from Jesuit during the 1984-85 school year was the wrestling team. This squad, like many others, was not expected to have a great season, but they did just that. The wrestling team was especially strong in the lower and middle weight classes. Sophomore Matt Parsons wres- tled at the lightest weight for the Tigers and had an out- standing season. Junior Ty Hatton, fresh from the lowa wrestling camp, also easily mastered most every opponent he faced. Sophomore Brett McGill is expected to be one of Jesuit's greatest wrestlers by the time he graduates. The next in the Tigers' line of unstoppable wrestlers was junior Fernando Buena. His superior strength put most other wrestlers in his class to shame. The two most dominating wrestlers on the squad, howev- er, were seniors. Robert Page finished the regular season undefeated and qualified easily for the state wrestling tour- nament. The other senior, Paul Ferlita, was undefeated and untied. He didn't lose until the state semifinal and wound as the fourth best wrestler in the state. The higher weight classes were no hindrance to the Tigers. Junior Rich Freddo and seniors Jack McLaughlin, Joe Miliziano, and Roger Penn rarely lost. Their ability was the key to the Tigers winning by such huge margins. This total Jesuit domination was the product of teamwork and dedication. The whole school and Jesuit community should take pride in the excellent wrestling season. Flawless Form.
