A Winning Season I0 Wins vs. 2 Losses A sport of endurance and quickness, cross country demands both the endurance of the runner to finish the two-and-one-half mile course and the quickness to do it first to be a winner. The courses vary from school to school, and this puts added stress on the team. The cross country team must be more able to adapt to changes than either a bas- ketball team or a track team. Monroe Central's cross country team adjusted successfully to the variations of the courses and had a winning season of 10 wins over 2 losses. The team was led by two senior runners who, for the last four years, have traded first and second place back and forth between them. Phil Bailey, who placed higher than any other MC runner ever had in the sectional last year, was pushed hard by Joey Ftydenbark. First Row: Greg Main, Tony Huber, Todd Hines, Joe Rydenbart, Randy Bunton, Phil Bai- ley. Second Row: Darrell Doss, Tim Miller, Jeff Walburn, Jim Flinard, Matt O'Bryant, Rob Reiber, John Oakes, and Coach Washler. Team Comments About the Man He likes to win, but hates to lose. He is a great coach who knows how to make you want to keep running when you would love to quit. 114 I Cross Country Phil Bailey ran in many such meets with the same determination to prepare him for his win in the Mid-Eastern Conference this year.

Golf Teams: all and Sprin Although at opposite ends of the school year, the boys' and girls' golf teams have very similar seasons. Each team faces the same problems and plays the same game from hole to hole. Concentration is also a common form of strategy for both teams during the season. As in any sport, practice is also very impor- tant and necessary for both the boys and girls. The community lends a helping hand to the golf team by letting the members practice as well as play their meets at the Hickory Hill golf course. The course is well- known throughout eastern Indi- ana and is considered one of the best in the area. Mr. Steve Reed coached the boys' team which plays in the spring, and Mrs. Carol Gilmore coached the girls as they played in thefall. 116 fGolf Boys' golf team: Front Row: Randy Newton, Brent Roahrig, Randy Downing, Brad Hoyt.
