Track W ather no obstacle t i Cold hands, freezing feet, icy wind and snow - those elements were ex- perienced bythe 16 Marshall track team members who participated in i the invitational meet in Bend, Or- egon, May 8 -- 10. Arriving in Bend the day before the -meet, Coach Rod Jones and his team enjoyed beauti- ful weather, with the temperatue around 75 degrees. Many activities were available to utilize the summer- like weather, including pools, sau' gnas, and miniature golf and video games. When the next day arrived, however, it was with the surprise of snow, hail and wind. Being Orego- nians, we were used to running, throwing and jumping in the rain, but-snow was something else, re- membered Senior Suzy Messing. s Competing under snowy condi' tions was a new experience for the Marshall track team, but not the only one. Competing under the di- rection of new coaches was also a different experience. Jones, PE-I and Health teacher, although not new to Marshall or coaching track, had nev- er-before coached track at Marshall. l was eager about coaching -track and had high expectations for the season. There are a lot of kids at Marshall with talent, said Jones. ivan Lehman, brother of Charlie Lehman, Marshalls Athletic Direc- tor, commuted 'daily from his job at Centennial High Schooi as a PE teacher to guide Marshall's throw- ers. Steve Pickering, also a new teacher at Marshall, lent his direc- tion to sprinters. Among these sprinters was Marshalls Rose Festi- val Princess, Kristie Jones, who ran the short relay, the 200 meters, the quarter mile and the mile relay. Culminating the efforts of the three coaches, three track members went to state. Wilbert Antoine ran hurdles and high jumped while Char- lette Berube and Jenifer Freeman threw the javelin and discus.

Tennis 0 Golf Unity, spirit account ' We had the best Boys' Tennis team Marshall has ever had, stated Senior Greg Worden. Coach Mary Hamilton confirmed, The 1982 sea- son was the most successful one for the boys in Marshalls history. Mike Kuiawa agreed and explained why. We had such a good year mainly because of our unity and team spirit. ' Over half of the Boys' Tennis team consisted of seasoned players, most of whom were seniors. The year was a mernorabie one as they took second in district with a record of 3 wins and 1 loss. The girls' team, comprised mainiy of underclass- men, did nearly as well by tying for second with a record of 2 wins and 2 losses. Suzy Wolters, a sophomore tennis team member, felt that the team did better this year than last. We played our best and were more seri- ous about the game. We showed that by our successful fundraiser. Not only did the team play consis' tent tennis, they also sold Marshall basebali caps to promote spirit and to raise money for new uniforms for the girls' team. The most inspira' tional tennis players were Sean Loth and Gloria Preston. i For the golf team, commuting to Eastmorelancl, West Delta, Progress Downs, and Rose City to play golf may have been difficult. The team's1 scores didn't refiect a very success' ful season, with a win loss record of 0-9. They did, however, send one team member, Junior Philip Ste- phens, to the state golf tournament. Stephens was also team captain as weil as most inspirational, an award given by his teammates. As golfer Peter Schweitzer ex- plained, We did pretty good consid- ering the turnout and the experience of the players. Although Coach Hamilton would have liked to se more involvement in the tennis and golf programs, she was satisfied with the students who participated. The kids gave 100 percent, she remarked. 'Tm glad l have had the opportunity to work with such energetic, outgoing, and hardworking athletes. 'They earned every victory, supported each other during each contest, and every play- er improved some aspect of his or her game.
