You were still incredibly tired. Sudden- ly you were falling, falling, until you hit the icy water. Was it just a nightmare, or did it really happen? Well, for some students, it hap- pened every day. They were the divers and swimmers. Did they hate it? I feel it's the best way to get lots of practice! said Mike White, freshman. lt wakes me up, said freshman Heather Patterson. Chris Holliday, sophomore, was not quite as enthusiastic. Getting up at 5:30 a.m. is not my idea of having a whole lot of fun, said Chris. So why did they do this? During the summer I was at my friend's pool a lot. I like diving, and so I checked Central to see if l12z.,.... VVAVES they had a team, said Mike. The divers and swimmers worked out for meets, but what did a manager do? A manager is expected to do the lane ropes and work around the pool, and do the cards for the meet. At the meets we have to give every- one their cards, then collect them from the timers, and make sure ev- eryone gets where they're supposed to be, said manager Michelle Wise. Did the swimmers and divers want to continue their sport? They differed in opinions, but Chris Holliday had a definite fu- ture. l've got other ambitions in my life, and diving is not one of the most important things. I want to be a clogger when I get to be a big boy, so I can dance my way to fame, he said.

Determination more them ekiri deep TOUGHCOMPETITION. 28 Wrestling otal concentration, men- tally, was important in wrestling. Both strength and speed were important too. Although sophomore Ron Cart- mill said, Speed is more. lf you are quick, the other guy can't use his strength on you. Wrestlers had to practice two to four hours every day and then lose several pounds before matches. Wrestling means getting in shape and having fun, said fresh- man Tony Southerland. It not only took a dedicated wrestler but a dedicated coach too. I think Coach Starr is the most dedicated coach I've ever seen. I-Ie tries to do everything he can to help the team, said freshman Travis Yost. When some of the wrestlers were asked about the most memorable thing that happened to them this past year, some of them said: Robert Washington --- When I got a chance to start on Varsity. Ron Cartmill --- I beat a guy by the score of 9-2, and he beat me last year. Freshmen --- the Mustang Tourna- ment. The Cubs won First Place, and freshman Travis Yost was named Outstanding Wrestler. And what does it take to be the best? Constant dedication and lots of extra effort, said sophomore Jason Snider. Sophomore Van Nguyen replied, Dedication, determination, and having a good attitude .... the at- titude of a winner! don Brock has a major workout with Coach Starr's son.
