HOOPSTERS Pass it Around and Through for Two Kneeling: Jeff Hampson Casey Wiseman Darren Shew David Caverly Chris Cook Daryl Ivins Darren Allison Standing: Coach Dan Fast Glenn Cullins Rod Woodward Mitch Mueller Gary Williamson Brian Ritter Dane Danforth Coach Don Zupan THE WINNING SEASON This is the year we’ll remember so well Mazama was ranked at the top, you recall It started with Promise, our hopes were so high With lots of hard work, we would reach for the sky Then, unexpected, our dreams fell apart The burden weighed heavy on all of our hearts Rodney Woodward was ill-not expected to live With our efforts unworthy, with little to give We placed him in hands more resourceful than ours And sent up our prayers mixed with trusting and tears But after awhile, tho we fretted and feared God gave us Rod back—and oh how we cheered. With hearts of Thanksgiving, our dreams we resumed Soon after Football the team would be tuned The Coaches were ready, they had it all planned Then the last game at Ashland, dismayed we did stand As a broken Mitch Mueller, with his future at stake Came home to knee surgery, how much could we take Again the Vikings were struck a low blow But the caliber high of the teammates remaining They hit the hoop hard and continued their training Determined and proud, with the help of their crowd They would prove through fine effort to all who beheld That the Vikings could do it They would work their way through it As the season progressed, few wins we possed But team spirit was strong—the fight would go on 90 BASKETBALL
