tradition 8 STYLE COM. ficult challenges we students faced was measuring up to the school ' s high aca- demic policies. Cathy Roe explained, You work your butt off and your grades may still not be as good. Although dealing with a higher grad- ing scale may have proved dispairing at times, the end result, a superior edu- cation, was well worth it. The boys basketball team was faced with its own brand of challenge. Despite the fact they experienced many dis- appointing losses, the cagers always gave it their best shot. All athletes met the challenges of attending grueling practices, and train- ing sessions. This hard work and deter- mination paid off for junior heavyweight Matt Crowe who advanced to the state wrestling tournament. Even though some of our challenges and goals were not met, we learned to face disappointments together, as well as the victories. We celebrated what we had: our friends, faith, and accomplish- ments. As one senior put it, celebration is being so happy that you don ' t have to worry about what tomorrow is going to bring. — Mary Ellert — Bethe Ledbetter • • • • • • k 11 II r. - m ■ ' ■ .■.•■.-. .;--..- . : Mr . , f - : ■ I ., f ,. - -•-. v .-. • . .; ... ... , e br Q APPROACHING THE THRONE: Senior Clare Becker and her escort Mike Hickam were trie main couple of the homecoming court after the night pro- gressed.
