Personal dif- ferences are put aside when loyalty to the school is called into the question. Through the year, Maury has been known for its strong school spirit; a sense of competition is evident as Maury continues the tradition of excellence in both academics and athletics. Although competition is stiff in all classes, seniors are prob- ably the most conscious of its presence. In applying to col- leges, seniors note the import- ance of being leaders in acad- emics, athletics, and other ex- tracurricular activities. These seniors are proven leaders of the class of 88. No matter how rigid of adversaries they are on the field or in the class- room, Maury students realize they are all on the same team and still remain friends. MOST ATHLETIC: Terrance Graves and Margarete Brandon BEST ALL AROU ND: Louis Barkan and Meredith Johnsor

Homecoming: It is a time for laughs, smiles, hugs, and cheers. Old alumni join with present students to sing praises to their alma mater. Teams play before ad- miring crowds; at halftime floats parade around the football field, and then comes the moment everyoneis been waiting for e the crowning of the Homecoming Queen. Maury has a tradition of excit- ing Homecoming events, and 1987 was no exception. Shining in new orange and blue, the Commo- dores shut out the Bayside Marlins 14-0. A show of floats, led by the contest winning camera, built the excitement felt acutely by the ten girls on the court. Every- one cheered as Mr. Slaughter and l 986 Queen Dione Boecker crowned the 1987 Homecoming Queen Janai Griffin. The evening ended with a victory dance held at Maury. Homecoming is one tradition not to be forgotten within the walls of the new school. Trying to slip by a Bayside player 36, Sam Sumler, an outside line backer, moves to the Commodore beat. Signs made by the always spirited Varsity Cheer- leaders show school support for the team and the crowd demonstrates enthusiasm by parents, teachers, and students. Homecoming l7
