Thoughts of victory were in the mind of Pete Gray as he began a grueling two miles. Cray, who is in his third year of cross country, was also a track star. The dedication all year of Dale Feutz, shown here against Villa Park, was a definite bright spot of this '73-'74 Cross Country season.

The Cross Country team started the season with an upset victory over Anaheim, but then ran into the extremely tough Crestview League competition. With only eleven runners and a change in coaching, the team had a rough time but worked hard and had a few bright spots this sea- son. These included a fifth place in the Anaheim District Cross Country meet and an upset victory over Tustin. The Varsity was led by Tom Baker, Jay Freeman, Pete Gray, Dale Carlson, Steve Woodyard, and Scott Freeman. Dale Feutz, Wayne Russell, Dan Iobe, and jimmy Trentin pulled up the slack in the J.V. division. Next year Katella will enter a tougher and more competitive cross country league. Cross Country 79

Wrestlers streaked to undefeated PIG-5985011 Heavy Weight Mark Wyman fought for two important points ona take down. Steve Huegerich discussed oncoming match with Coach Phillips. If V .: I . 1 1 g f 1? Varsity Captain Rod Bailey put on one of his best moves in an effort to pin Tustin opponent. Bailey was an asset to both Coach Phillips and the whole team. Following an undefeated pre-season this year's wres tlers have finally given Katella a contending team. This was quite an accomplishment considering Crestview League foes such as El Modena, No. 1 ranked in Orange County, and C.I.F. rated Mission Viejo. ' Coaches Phillips and Werscke stressed team goals rather than in- dividual gains. However the wrestling team had several standouts this season, Russ and Frank lppolito, Gavin Skomars, Brad Ennis, and Dick Bidwell, were in the spotlight many times this season. The overall attitude and record of this year's wrestlers was excellent. qw. .f 1 .r , Wrestling - B1
