RUNNERS ENDURE The light at the end of the tunnel pulls each in- dividual runner across the finish line and encourages the team through the sea- son to regionals. The whole season the team felt like they could reach re- gionals. They weren ' t cocky, but confident, said Coach Brenda Allwine. The boys team, led by sophomore Danny Boyd, captured second in district, Toni Tamez, Kelly Stubenazy, and Pachari Sousa lead the pack. qualifying them for region- als. The girls team, led by junior Mindy Crum, placed third in district. Regionals kept them working hard through the season while other things inspired them to do their best in each race. We al- ways had a group prayer right before we got off the bus. When we ' re on the line, too, someone will lead us in prayer, commented senior Judy Eggert. You have to have a lot of self-motivation to run cross-country. My job is more building their con- fidence up than pushing them to run, said Coach Allwine. When you run you feel confidence, and when you finish, you have a feeling you ' ve accomplish ' d some- thing, reached a goal, said junior Tom Salabisak.

We faced a new coaching staff and strong district rivals, said Senior Tony Saldana. Yet pride and determination brought the Rams through with a 4-4-2 record. Opening the season, the scoreless board at North- side Stadium said nothing of the tight the Rams gave the Rockets, knocking Judson out of the first place city position. Knocking the so-called ' unbeatable ' Judson Rock- ets out of first in cit) ' made me feel almost unbeatable myself, said Senior Van Zabava. The second ranked Holmes Huskies battled the Rams to a 23-6 victory as 10,000 fans witnessed the grueling game. With a 14-0 lead in the first nine minutes ot the game, the Rams gave top ranked Roosevelt a big scare, and continued to hold the lead with a 21-7 advantage with only four minutes left in the first half. Terror filled the stands when Senior Mike Abrego was knocked un- conscious by a hit from a Roosevelt player. Tearful fans and players waited im- patiently for the delayed medical assistance. Opti- mistic friends and family spent long anxious hours in the hospital emergency room awaiting news on Mike ' s condition. The prayers of everyone were answered with Mikes quick recovery. By far, the most exciting game of the season was the Homecoming game against Taft. Behind 21-13, Adri- an Bueno brought it to a tie with a touchdown with just 34 seconds left in the game. The ecstatic cheers of the Marshall tans filled the stadium as the score remained 2 1-21. The game ended with a tension filled field goal attempt by Senior Bobby Alonzo. The McCoUum Cow- boys were no competition for the Rams, who scored every time they touched the ball in the first halt. The 58-0 final, however was a slight disappoint- ment to the Rams, who were hoping to break the school ' s 63-0 record. Fans entered the stadi- um with high hopes for a victory against our biggest rivals, the Clark Cougars. The players kept this spirit alive until the last 56 sec- onds of the game when a 32 yard field goal put Clark in the lead, 18-16. As the game came to a close, Ram fans and players gathered to sing the final Alma Mater of the season. Tears filled the eyes of many seniors as they treas- ured the moment of their last football game. The memories would live on in their hearts forever. As the season ended, many players felt that we were better than what our record said, Senior Adrian Bueno. Article: Robin Clay, Jeanncttc Gonzales Photos: Robin Clay, Daniel Vargas D J.
