Lin den Hockey The Eagle's Hockey team did exception- ally well by starting out the season with 10 consecutive wins, but gradually lost their momentum but not their spirit. An in- crease in penalties against the team and injuries to the Magalski brothers played a large factor in the Eagles's temporary downfall. But pulling themselves together, the Eagles went on to end the season with a very respectable 15-8-4 record. Linden en- but then failed to get by Hartland, making Linden's first time in the play-offs a disap- pointing one. The 1981-82 Hockey team consisted of a lot of all-round talent with Doug DuBois, Tim Whitten and Mike Wood leading a strong defense, combined with Chris Beck- man and Scott Morse on the offensive at- tack. This blend of offensive and defensive talent was best displayed in Linden's victo- with a score of 0-4, The Linden's defens held Lapeer East to their 4, while the of fense came from behind to score 5 unan swered goals, making the final score 5-4. Special awards for All-League were giv en to Chris Beckman and Scott Morse, ls team, Tim Whitten, 2nd tearng and A Dickenson and Mike Wood for Honorabl Mention.

Early in the season it seemed 1981-82 was the time for the Eagle wrestling team to put it all together. For three consecu- tive weeks the Linden grapplers scored over 100 points in tour- naments, finishing no worse than 5th and garnishing many individual honors. But then, one misfortune after another struck the mat- men. .. .' cheidbailnvimiimiki iirr 5711? ' 3rd Invitational Mt. Morris Invitational n , Davison ilnvitatiiiihal fllurand Invitatidhal. .

X pp 5th lf 17th Wrestling Illness, injury, transfers, and ineligibility all aided the deple- tion of the varsity line-up for the last two-thirds of the sea- son. While there were some memorable moments, such as a victory over arch-rival Lake Fenton, the team never fulfilled the early promise it had shown. Though they put forth great ef- fort, Linden's young replace- ments just could not fill the voids. Everything was not gloomy, however. Senior Joe Gould de- feated a defending state cham- pion. Seniors Adam Earls, Joff Mishall, and Jim Coleman had very productive seasons. Soph- omores Dave Freeman and Wayne Berry proved to be solid performers and freshman Chuck Hall improved steadily throughout the season. 3rd ' 5th' 12th ' 4th is 1 . imc ' . 1.
