Driving for par 92 Golf ipping a coke in a cool clubhouse is a relaxing way to refresh after a tedious game of golf. While this sport provides an oppor- tunity for leisure, practice and hard work make it worthwhile. The '84- '85 golf teams displayed their dedica- tion to the game through the hours of practice at area golf courses such as Raveneaux, Champions, Treeline and Willowcreek. The hard work of each member showed in the results of the tournaments played during the year. Llnder the instruction of Coaches Lloyd Long and Carol Helms, both teams turned out a suc- cessful season. Our team had an outstanding year thanks to our retur- ning lettermen and experienced newcomers, concluded Long. 1 .f -,, . , :- rut sl. , ,. ..., 1 x, .I J, - L i f ,- N . , ' i, 1 .,.- Wim, , , V- .A I AI, V ., ,Im mv . 5 , T, ,,,. ,4 , . ,.,,t,. .

rounds the pprfect form. Photo Running and Shooting ushing the hard-working runners of the boys' cross country team, Coach Allen Baker helped develop the team's endurance and strength throughout the early months of the season. Winning over half of their meets, the distnce men finished fourth out of seven schools in district. Having only two senior run- ners and strong, underclass runners, the future looks bright for the distance men, commented Baker. Striding with such tough teams as Cy-Creek and Katy Taylor, the team suffered from injuries which held back the full thrust. Ending the season with a respectable finish, the boys' cross country effort in the future is expected to improve as Ka, ,Et 7,-1, 6-K-5 L The 1984-85 Cross Country team- fi if all more eager and able runners join the distance team. Rebuilding for a strong girls cross country team in the future was an important goal set by Coach Allen Baker. Tough teams plaguing the girls' meets were Katy Taylor and Cy-Fair. The number of girls attempting to run a grueling two mile event was very low with only a few girls training. With other sports overlapping the cross country schedule and injuries interfering with full potential, the girls' program suf- fered, but the girls were in a rebuilding and tough year, replied Baker. Hopefully last year's 83-84 district win will help motivate the girls and their program in the future. Turning out a highly successful record, the boys' junior varsity soccer team defeated many area teams losing only two games. Aggressively attack- ing every opponent, body contact and high skill were two important characteristics of the junior varsity team. Battling Westfield for a district win and competing with a tough Kingwood team, the junior varsity strived to learn the basics of the pro- gram and add to their skill levels with winning taking care of itself, com- - mented Coach Jim Pool. Consisting of many freshman team members, the junior varsity is ex- pected to finish highly next year, which has been done successfully three years in a row with three losses or less maximum for each season. After finishing the season with a 9-2-3 record, Pool stated, We have come a long way, combining different background players from several club teams to form one solid junior varsity team. Putting in a few miles for practice, cross country runners circle the oval track. Cross Country 91
