PELE,MANlA Marist High School Varsity soccer team closed the 1977 sea son with an overall record of 7 wins and 7 losses. ln confer- ence play, the team was 2 and 6, playing very close games Cwith some going into double overtimej, against such power houses as Quigley South and Homewood-Flossmoor. This year's record becomes even more respectable when one considers that the team won only two out of fifteen games in 1976. It was a genuine team effort all the way, frequently sparked by outstanding individual performances by such players as Seniors Joe Dowling, Mike Embach, Bill Boyd, Ray Lang, Andy Pertchi, and others. On the Junior level some of the outstanding players were: Mike Hogan, Jim Bergeron, Danny Radz, Bruce Turner, Keith Amendola in goal, and oth ers. ,Ili l 'Q' E Ll A4

FROSH-SOPH SOCCER JUST FOR KICK9 This year's Sophomore Soccer continued its moves toward growth and development. Although the record shows the team breaking even, the actual performance on the field saw more skill and talent then ever before. With the offensive drive of Andy Karas, Dan Nolan, Mike Sabal, and Brian Ouealy, and the defensive strength of Steve Black, Chris Bannon, and goa- lies Mark Sykora and Mike Sczczniewski and an overwhelming team effort, the team looks for- ward to a promising future of success and acco- lades. The Fall saw over 52 new freshmen try out for Soccer, more than in any previous year. With much hard work and determination they were able to put together a respectable season of 3-3- 2. The year was a learning experience since many members of the team had never played soccer before. However, by October the Fresh- man Soccer Squad blossomed into a spirited team.
