' ' t's easy to practice and get ready for a game when you're winning, but when you're having a losing season you have to practice and prepare with your heart, said Coach Rod Carlson. Lyman's football team didn't win a lot of games, but their goal was to improve. We were a young team, so it took a few games for us to mature, Carlson said. Coach Del Tumer noted, A winning record is not the only way to judge a success- ful team. It is important, but not the only way. Coach Rob Wangerin added, I don't care what the score- board said. lf you lost by 30 points, but gave 100 percent, you are still winners. If you won by 30 points but didn't have to try or really work hard, are you still really winners? I don't think so. The coaches all believed that captains Kurt Giles and Carl Menck, along with co- mm Sports - Varsity Football captains Clint Hallam, Deon Thomas, Jerry Davidson, Jay Buckley, Todd Rollins, and Spinner Jones led the team. Sophomore Troy Barnes respected the seniors. He said, They kept the players up, the enthusiasm high. They kept a friend relation- ship between playersf' Giles noted, We are all buddies on and off the field. We stick up for each other and help each other out. Losing seniors always hurts. These were the greatest group of kids I have ever worked with. I'm sorry to see them go, Turner said. Carlson admired them because they never quit or gave up. When the going got tough, they could have just 'trashed' it, but they didn't. They stuck with it all the way to the end. Where the talent left off is where their hearts began, Carlson added. All was not lost for the team though, as they did have some high points. Clint Hallam was the 'defensive standout' with more than half of all tackles for the whole team. Four seniors made it to the All-Conference Football Team. Carl Menck was first team offensive tackle and second team defensive lineman. Others honored were Clint Hallam second team defensive linebacker, Deon Thomas second team running back, Jay Buckley second team punter, and Darrin Ferguson second team defensive cornerback. Giles said he was kind of glad that the season was over. We had a losing season. Carl and I discussed it, we would like to play next year, but we know we can't, Giles added. Barnes said the team had a lot of spirit. He noted, 'The people who stayed out had a lot of self discipline. We learned new things and had a building season. Carlson added, We've come a long way, traveled so very far, accomplished so very much, yet, we still had a great distance left to go. Tina Elmer Practicing hard.
