(Above, right) Rod Bowie scans the field for an open receiver in the first home game against El Reno During a time out Coach Burd and Coach McKay plan strategy for the se- cond period of the Okar- che game. We start in August on a hot summer day By running, hitting, and sweating until some even drop All in the name of this game that we play, For we are on a journey, a quest for the top. In September we are ready to put our opponents to death And start to strive for the goals that we had set We were led on this voyage by Troy, Qua, and Jeff, While the rest of us fought to see that our goals were met. As the season progressed, the future was unclear, For many were injured and we d fallen off the pace, But we rose from the ashes and came from the rear, And when the end came, we were still in the race. We looked for the top, and we knew we could. But the referees had other intentions and ruled it, No Good.

Yet. just as aH high school athletics are supposed to teach a lesson in hfe. the officials turned and taught aH of us the greatest lesson of our bves LIFE ISN'T FAIR The life I had led as a football athlete was suddenly at an end. and. I suppose, to assume that everything will be fair is not reality. I know that now ... I just wish reality wasn't so cold Jeff Wiese The game will never be over.

I watched the ball go high, right through the uprights, m by at least five or six feet. I thought, Awesome kick, Bowie. You Just won the game! A great feeling was all over me. but suddenly it turned to disbelief as I heard their stands cheer I turned around and saw the official rule. No good. I couldn't believe iff I watched, stupified. as the official threw one flag .. then another .. then another . Derek Wrobbel (Above) Jackets on the bench are ready at any time to fill in on the court when Coach Burd calls their number.
