Class of '86 — taken October, 1985 THE YELLOWJACKET Volume XXXIX Kingfisher High School 1985-1986 Kingfisher, Oklahoma On Rock the Falcons day David Lee Roth, alias Jana Buettner, gives a cheer for the Yellowjacket football team. Journalism students Sonda Leitner and Doug Smereck check dates for the Stinger, Jacket Journal, and yearbook photo assignments. Noontime football at the southeast entrance kept Mike Shults, Jeff Gaither, Luther Burpo, and Bill Boyd active while it entertained others. Most mornings before class Chris Ruhl, Jeff Anderson, and William Pinkston could be found outside the library doing their homework.

Wil- liam Pinkston is the third member of the political party in a mock campaign in English class. Most of the fighting Yellowjacket football team rode the traditional blue truck in 1986's Homecoming Parade. Junior cheerleader Charlotte Goats was the lone female leading cheers. Annie Delozier and Joan Diaz sometimes have to wade through the junque” in their locker to get a book for the next class. Lunchtime activities keep these seniors running to get a needed drink of water before fourth hour. Ernie, Bret Pappe, Marty Barton, and Rex Boutwell were caught by the camera seconds before the bell. Terry Parks and Jeff Townsend test each oth- er's memory for vocabulary words as Silas Conn plays with his new wooden toy.

Vocational Industrial Clubs of America PROMOTE THE PRACTICAL: LEARN A The Kingfisher Vocational Industrial Clubs of America Chapter is com- posed of students enrolled in Auto Mechanics, Carpentry, Cosmetology, and Industrial Cooperation Education. Members attended the Northwest District Leadership Conference at Watonga this year and took a large sign which had been made by the carpentry and ICE students. Fifty-four members earned the Statesman” award there. During the first month of school students held a District picnic, and the Northwest President and treasurer attended the Region IV Conference, in Nebraska, and the executive council meeting. The members had a Halloween party, worked at home basketball and wrestling concession stands, held an officer installation and new member initiation ceremony, and served as hosts and hostesses at the KHS open house. Students also took field trips to Oklahoma State Tech, the Weyhauser saw mill, General Motors assembly plant, and went to a beauty show. Chapter members made one of the first donations to the “Jeff Mercer scholarship fund. An Oklahoma VICA Officer Candidate, Opening and Closing Ceremony Team and the Employee Employer Parent Banquet were planned. Industrial Cooperation Education classes performed the Initiation of new members and the installation of officers ceremony at El Reno High School. Carpentry classes entered the state Skill Contest. Cosmetology students worked at the local nursing homes and entered the state Cosmetology Skill Contest. Auto mechanics students held an Appreciation Banquet dedicated to Jeff Mercer, entered the State Auto Mechanics contest, the Plymouth Trouble Shooting contest, and had a Parliamentary Procedure team.

CHOIR GROWS IN NUMBER, EXPERIENCE The thirty-one member choir went to Still- water this past fall to attend the OSU Thanks- giving Choral Festival. Students joined over 1200 other students to form a mass choir. At Christmas time students went caroling for the chamber of Commerce and went to the nursing homes and later presented a program for the entire school. In March the choir conducted an assembly for the student body. Music was more “popu- lar” than contest music and featured solos and small ensembles. A Spring Concert was given for the community and members tried out for Honor Choir at Tri State Music Festival in Enid. All chorus members were involved. Chorus director. Mike Sanford, has taught here for three years and plans to organize an eight member group to perform at community functions in the future. Journalism students are: (first row) Julie Barker, Tamara Wilbourn. Sonda Leitner. Melody Tatum, Paula Mueggenborg. Gerry Redbird, and Stephanie Yarbrough; (second row) Rhonda Morgan. Doug Smereck, Mike Snow. Corey Thompson. Garrett Redbird. Mark Pyle, and Tim Annuschat; (third row) Michael Wehrenberg. Kelli Harrison, Tracy Pennington, Tracy Jones. Richie Tasso. Stacy Cowens, Robin Price, and Tamera Beecher Journalism CLASS SEPARATES: PRODUCES NEWS BOOK JOURNALISM students produced two newsletters each month, the Jacket Journal, distributed to residents of Kingfisher, and the Stinger, passed out to KHS students. The final products came from careful planning on the layouts and the stories chosen and written to go into the papers. We feel that we have accomplished and learned much about news production in general, deadlines, and working together as a team. New students: Tamara Wilbourn, Kelli Harrison, Robin Price and Mark Pyle, editors: Garrett Redbird, Melody Tatum, Tim Annuschat, and Tracy Jones, reporters; and A. J. Johnson, sponsor. Working on the YEARBOOK staff was a new experience for all of us this year. We all learned together. Sometimes working on layouts, cropping pictures, typing copy was a lot of fun, but when the deadlines got here, we had to work fast and hard to meet them, but the hard work sure did pay off when we saw the finished product. We hope that everyone who looks through the 1986 Kingfisher Yellow acket enjoys and appreciates the hard work and effort that was put into this book by the following people: Stephanie Yarbrough and Gerry Redbird, faculty section; Mike Snow and Corey Thompson, sports: Tracy Pennington, organizations: Tamera Bee- cher, classes; Rhonda Morgan and Sonda Leiter, advertising; Richie Tasso, Paula Mueggenborg, Michael Wehrenberg, and Doug Smerek, photogra- phers; Julie Barker and Stacy Cowens, editors; and sponsor, Wendy Johnson. 36 This section of the yearbook recognizes students who have been named 'speciar' either by their peers or faculty.

HONORS National, Oklahoma Honor Societies DEDICATION TO ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT National Honor Society Members are: (first row) Chris Ruhl, Lisa liebl, and Andrea Kolar; (second row) Jeff Weise, Susan Gaither, Tracy Mooers, Derek Wrobble, Pat McKinley, and Nancy Beall; (back row) sponsors, Ira Bromlow, and Elsie Hunter. BRINGS RECOGNITION National Honor Society is usually comprised of a small, but elite, group of students who excel in academics and KHS is proud to honor these outstanding students. Those who have been members in the past and those who were inducted into the society this spring deserve special recognition. The National Honor Society consists of students with a high grade point average since entering the ninth grade. Minimum grade point average for first year senior members is 3.50; minimum grade point average for first year junior members and those second year seniors is 3.75. Because only ten percent of the high school enrollment is eligible for membership in the Oklahoma Honor Society, the group is deserving of recognition. This year 33 students became eligible and were introduced to the student body during the Honor Society assembly this April. Membership in the Oklahoma Honor Society is based upon work completed during the first semester of the current year and the second semester of the preceding year. The standing of students enrolled in the first year of the high school is based on the work done during the first semester of the current year. Sponsors for the Society this year were Elsie Hunter and Ira Bromlow who organized the members’ initiation ceremony conducted as an all school assembly. Oklahoma Honor Society members are: (first row) Sonja Mitchell, Angela Grape, and Kim Gibson; (second row) Lori Johnson, Glenda Kunneman, Tracy Russell, and Michelle Bar- rackman; (third row) Chris Ruhl, Paul Wehrenberg, Cheryl Senn, and Karle Pyle. Oklahoma Honor Society members are: (first row) Janet Mueggenborg, Debbie Watts, Susan Gaither, Tracy Mooers, Andrea Kolar, Lisa Liebl, Richard Flood, and David Wehrenberg: (second row) Stevi Baustert, Leah Knudsen, Sherry Krittenbrink, Staci Wilbourn, Stacey Satchell, Melissa Koehn, and Nancy Beall; (third row) Benjamin Craig, Jarrod Kopp, Derek Wrobbel, Jeff Wiese, Russell Harrel, Rod Bowie, and Pat McKinley. 39 BLUE AND GOLD Because of their interest, capability, and dependability, these eight stu- dents have been selected to represent three areas of instruction and academics. They carry on the tradition of outstanding performance and pride in the Blue and Gold of KHS. Each year teachers in three areas of instruction are asked to nominate students to represent that area, and based upon the classes in which they are enrolled, students then vote for one boy and one girl. The highest cumulative gradepomt on the |umor and senior level determines the academic choices. Nominees for the 198S-86 Blue and Gold honor were: Terry Parks. Warren Clayton. Sondra Leitner. Donna Mowdy. and Carla Pyle. Vocational: Barry Kraus. Silas Conn. Michael Wehrenberg. Andrea Talbott. Tracy Mooers. and Tracey Martin. Fine Arts; Todd Brown. Donovan Boutwell, Silas Conn.

BLUE AND GOLD Because of their interest, capability, and dependability, these eight stu dents have been selected to represent three areas of instruction and academics. They carry on the tradition of outstanding performance and pride in the Blue and Gold of KHS. Each year teachers in three areas of instruction are asked to nominate students to represent that area, and based upon the classes in which they are enrolled, students then vote for one boy and one girl. The highest cumulative gradepomt on the junior and senior level determines the academic choices. Nominees for the 1985-86 Blue and Gold honor were: Terry Parks. Warren Clayton. Sondra Leitner. Donna Mowdy. and Carla Pyle, Vocational; Barry Kraus. Silas Conn. Michael Wehrenberg. Andrea Talbott. Tracy Mooers. and Tracey Martin. Fine Arts; Todd Brown. Donovan Boutwell. Silas Conn.

(Below) Listening closely, the Yellowiackets hear Coach Howrd describe the mistakes made during the first half of the Heritage Hall game NEVER JACKETS HAVE PRIDE . . . SURRENDER This was the year that the Jackets took a new head coach, Mark Howard, and Benny Smith along with secondary coach Tony Yates. These coaches put in more hours than players did. The Jackets didn't have an awesome team this year, but did what they could with what they had. The players of the 1985-868 season had the determination and the heart of champions. They spent many hours a day on the practice field sweating and sometimes even freezing. The Jackets might have thought they had seen bad weather till this year when they had as much in one season as they had had for four or five years. They played through about half or more of their season in the rain, sleet, and fog. They only lost one regular season game in the rain, but they did have a couple of close calls. The Hennessey Eagles gave the Jackets a run for their money. The rain poured during the second half, after drizzling through the first half. Eagles tied the game at 7-7 in the fourth quarter causing the game to go into overtime. The Jackets didn’t quit, though. After shutting down the Eagle offense, the Jackets kicked a field goal for a victory over the Hennessey Eagles 10-7. The Jackets were fired up over their win against Hennessey and played Homecoming next against the Watonga Eagles. The Eagles played hard too. but with the Jacket offense and defense pulling their weight, the Eagles couldn't keep up. After winning their first four games and the Jacket defense only allowing 14 points, the Jackets might have gotten a little case of the big head. When the Jackets went to Heritage Hall, a 2A school with a record of 2-2, the Chargers threw for over 300 yards against the secondary. The score was 9-7, the Jackets 2 points shy of another win. Next came the number two rated team in the state — Milwood Falcons. The Falcons, always a tough team to beat, gave the Jackets all they wanted and a little more. The Jackets didn't give up, even though the weather was terrible — again the ram caused Jacket turnovers that could have been turned into Jacket touchdowns. The Falcons came out on top 34-11. Then came probably the worst game of the season — due, one more time to the weather. The Weatherford Eagle's field was covered with mud and water, but the Jackets didn't let the weather stop them this time. They stopped the Eagles 13-0. After winning the Weatherford Mud Bowl, the Jackets decided they wanted to go all the way. They defeated the Chisholm Longhorns 25-0, and then went to Perry and defeated the Maroons 47-6. The next game, maybe the most important of the year, was against the Blackwell Maroons, who hadn't had a winning season in about 15- 20 years. This year they had already assured themselves of a winning season and a trip to the playoffs. The Jackets didn't expect to go as District Runner-up, but the Maroons beat them and took the District Championship with a score of 13-6. The Jackets weren’t out of it yet. They played the number one rated team in the state, Clinton, in the first round in the playoffs. The Jackets practiced as they never had before—they wanted the State Championship and knew if they beat Clinton, they could go all the way. The Jackets hit the field and drilled Clinton the first half 10-7, but the second half the Jackets relaxed, and Clinton came back to haunt them. The Red Tornadoes scored 3 touchdowns in the second half to Kingfisher's 0. They won with a score of 28-10. The Jackets played hard and long this year, and the Kingfisher Yellowiacket Pride was respected by any team they played because they know that JACKETS NEVER SURRENDER!” With Heritage Hall leading 3-0 midway through the fourth quarter.

The Jackets then went to the Woodward Tournament where they won the consolations after getting beat by Guymon. The Jackets were awesome again beating Piedmont in two games. Then came Okarche, a very tough rival, but the Jackets took care of them in both regular season games easily. Being rated fairly high caused the Jackets to play a few top rated teams in Class 3A and caused a lot of pressure on the players. The Jackets went into a losing streak of 5 games in a row. They lost to Piedmont, Woodward, Deer Creek, and twice to McGuiness. The Yellowjackets went into the Kingfisher Invitational with confidence. They won their first two games with quite a bit of ease. They then played Guymon and beat them by one point for first place in the Invitational. Next came the District Playoffs and the Jackets got everything together and defeated Perry and won the District title. The Jackets faced Guymon in the first round of Regional play, and the Tigers beat the Jackets by 3 points, but the Jackets weren't out yet! All they had to do was beat Deer Creek and then play in the finals, but they lost a tough game in overtime. The Jackets, although upset with coming so close, had to end their basketball season without the State Championship. Starters for this season were: seniors, Mike Snow, Brett Peavler, and Todd Brown; juniors, Kyle Rickner and Rod Bowie: sophomore and Corey Burd. Coaches were Pete Burd, head coach, and Tim McKay, assistant. Jett McDowell shoots a jumper tor two points while Mike Snow and Corey Burd get ready to block out for the rebound.

Andrea Talbott. Jana Buettner, Sonya Yarbrough, and Coach Joe Crabb This year Jackettes had to show fans what they were made of since the team lost some of the best players in KHS history last year. Most everyone thought that the Jackette team wouldn’t be as good, but that was just enough to make the team strive even harder. Jackettes won District, but lost to Alva in the first round of Regionals. After beating Jones 56-43 in the consolation brackett, the girls lost a heartbreaker to Piedmont to end the season. This year besides getting up earlier and being on the floor ready to practice at 8 a.m., the Jackettes gave up their time in order to practice at night, also. Although many of the players were new to the team, they practiced together and looked forward to the next day as a day of getting better. The YellowJackettes were coached by Joe Crabb, who is in his 14th year at KHS, and Mark Qualls, who has been here the past two years. Starters of the Yellowjackette team rotated throughout the season. Forwards at the beginning of the season were Lisa Wilcox, a 5-6 junior; Paula Mueggenborg, a 5-11 junior; and Stevi Baustert, a 5-6 sopho- more and Tracy Jones, a 5-4 junior who traded positions frequently. Starting at the guard end was Tanya Fuller, a 5-11 senior, Nancy Beall, a 5-6 senior; and Andrea Talbott, a 5-10 senior. Sharon Tatum, a 5-5 junior took Talbott's place at guard in the middle of the season, but toward the end Talbott took over for Fuller who was injured and out for the season. After being ranked 4th in 3A pre-season ratings, the Jackettes made a good start by beating Watonga 56-35. Jackettes then traveled to the annual Woodward Tournament. In the first round Kingfisher faced Alva and led all the way except in the last quarter. The game went to Alva, 57-40. In the second game the girls played Woodward B-team and walloped them, 69-27, and in the last game Kingfisher beat Ponca City, 43-38 in a close game. The Jackettes won the consolation award. When the Jackettes played Perry, they blew the Maroons out of the gym, 67-49, and then went on to win against Watonga, 55-43. They went into the Christmas break with a 5-1 record. The Jackettes’ first action after Christmas was against Piedmont, and Piedmont dusted the Jackettes, 57-43, but the Jackettes claimed a victory when they beat Okarche, 41-20. The Jackettes were upset by a loss to Marlow, 39-33, but main- tained their record of 6-3. McGumess gave the Jackettes a tough competition, but Jackettes outscored the Irish in every quarter except the last, in which forwards Lisa Wilcox and Paula Mueggenborg both fouled out. The Jackettes held on to win, 55-44. In the next game, after the Jackettes got off to a slow start, Deer Creek Antlers took home the win, 52-40. It was time for the team to travel to the Annual Western Girl's Tournament held in Elk City. Kingfisher has won this tournament seven years in a row, from 1979 to 1984. In the first round of action, the Jackettes breezed by Clinton, 51-31, and the girls played their best game of the year. Coach Crabb stated that it was Tatum’s best game of the year, with Tatum making eight steals in three quarters. In the second game, Kingfisher lost a hard-fought, emotional game. With 4 seconds left (the Jackettes were ahead of Sayre by 1 point) Sayre hit two freethrows to win the game, 50-49. The Jackettes played for third place against Mangum, and defeated the Tigerettes, 34-26. After returning home from Elk City, the Jackette Team traveled to Okarche, who played tough, but Kingfisher won, 44-39, and the team romped Perry that same week, 58-36. The girls met Deer Creek again and they avenged their loss when Wilcox hit a field goal with three seconds left, and the game went into overtime. The Jackettes pulled through, winning 43-37, and kept their winning streak when they demolished McGuiness, 67-35. Basketball Homecoming of 1985-86 brought a disappointment to the Jackettes as Piedmont hit everything they shot. The Jackettes outscored them in the fourth quarter, but it was too late, and Piedmont won, 61-58. Woodward came to Kingfisher that same week and upset the Jackettes, 47-38. The last game of the season brought a victory for the Jackettes. They downed Blanchard, 61-47, and the victory gave the Jackettes a 14-7 record for the year.

Silas Conn was the 190 pound State Champion when he won an exciting overtime victory in the finals, while Jeff Gaither was second at heavyweight, and 168 pounder Donovan Boutwell took third. Also qualifying for the three day tournament at Stillwater were freshman Paul Delozier at 101, junior Ronnie Conn at 178 pounds. This year, for the first time, the Yellowiackets had enough wrestlers to consistently field teams with wrestlers at all 13 weight classes. In several weights, ranking matches had to be held to determine who would represent the Yellowiackets at that particular weight. That team strength was evidenced by a 2nd place trophy at the Piedmont Tournament, 3rd place at Watonga, and 4th place at the huge Clinton Tournament. The Yellowiackets were rated in the pre-season top 10 and went as high as number 2 in one poll and number 3 in another. In 1985 Kingfisher had its first State Champion with Rex Boutwell at 108 pounds. Silas Conn placed 4th at 178, and these two were the first returning medal winners. Both returned to the State Tournament in 1986 and Silas became the first two-time medal winner from Kingfisher. Although the three 1986 medal winners will graduate, the Yellow- lackets will return three State qualifiers next year. With the strong underclassmen coming up and the return of three injured wrestlers, it appears 1987 will certainly build on what was accomplished in 1986 — another State Champion (or more) and a successful wrestling season. At 168 pounds, senior Donovan Boutwell displays the strength and style that propelled him to a third place finish at the State Tournament This pm helped KHS blast Geary 48 24 and announce to the state that Kingfisher had arrived as a wrestling power. SILAS CONN TAKES STATE Although sophomore Oavid Watson is giving up back points in this match, he was a pleasant surprise at 115 pounds by becoming one of seven Yellowiackets to qualify for the State Tourney. 1985 State Champion at 108 pounds, senior Ren Boutwell moved up to 123 pounds in 1986 where the competition was much tougher Re� lost a heartbreaking 10-9 decision in the State consolation semi finals to keep him only the 1986 medal race.

ROUTINES, DANCE, WORK = CHEERLEADING The '86 Yellowjacket football team was cheered on by eight spirited, hard working girls: seniors, Nancy Beall, Andrea Kolar, Jana Buettner, Lisa Green, and Laurie Green; juniors, Charlotte Goats, and Kim Little; and sophomore, Darla Fisher. Through one of the worst seasons of ram, mud, and fog, these girls, who sometimes appeared with sweatpants, colorful raincoats, and dripping hair, braved conditions of Friday nights to lead the wet crowds. Only a part of the cheerleader's activities were visible around school. Each Monday these girls canvassed the halls selling spirit ribbons and each football player found a locker sign on his locker, sometimes with a ''surprise” taped to it. At pep assemblies on Friday’s cheerleaders gave players treats like cookies or malts and performed at their best with pyramids and skits, as they led classes in competitive cheers to get players and fans fired up” for the games. They also sponsored Rock the Falcons Day and (Hennessey) “Nerd Day. This brought students to school in costumes which added further to interest and spirit as prizes were given to the best (or worst) costume. Outside of school time cheerleaders spent hours practicing what they had learned at summer camp where they received the spirit stick and the Most Improved awards. Basketball cheerleaders were Lisa Green, Melody Tatum, Lisa Liebl, and Kim Little. These four made cupcakes for players, locker signs, and threw small basketballs to crowds in assemblies and games. Pep assemblies saw the girls perform not only regular cheers, but many original dance routines. For one of Kingfisher's arch rivals, cheerleaders organized a blue and gold runthrough and a spirit line. Melody Tatum. Lisa Green, and Lisa Liebl chant. Oooh. You Think Your Tough and the audience yells. Oooh. We Know Were Tough!

My first year in Kingfisher has been a rewarding personal experience. I have met many good, good people that have been helpful, supportive and genuinely interested in the success of Kingfisher Schools and its students. These people, both inside and outside of the school, provide us with a clear map to student successes by their unselfish commitment to the total school program. I have also been impressed with the student body. I see a large majority of students actively engaged in leadership activities and I observe nearly all students are serious about their education. It is a joy to be involved with courteous, friendly students who are progressive and active. I regret that I do not know more of you personally. I would like to congratulate Mrs. Wendy Johnson and her yearbook staff for preserving the 1985-86 school year history in this publication. This book will endure several generations. Thanks!
