Their 6-4-3 record is a record to be proud of - especially since the competition in the Dual County League was so tough this year. Defense for Newton South was an important factor. Next year's defensive line will miss the strength and strategy of co-captain Laura Sacks, the hustle of Iohanna Hurley, and the accuracy of Linda Speizer. The two goalies, Rachel Finn and Ienny Knight, who combined to produce 6 shutouts, also will be missed. The threatening offense of Newton South's team of ten resulted in victory. The agile and aggressive co- captain Michelle Miller led the team with 9 goals and 7 assists. Diane Houlihan was also a key to the success of the offense as she scored 7 goals and 6 assists. Sharon Sussman's speed was a great asset to the forward line as she often beat her opponents to the ball. The team M'-fe -H regrets the loss of Laura Sheingold and Ellen Sheridan to knee injuries. Their playing was greatly missed. The girls' soccer team has been a varsity sport for only three years. The team's success is due to the patience and effort of Coaches Chuck Hurwitz and Paul Murphy. Cood luck soccer team of 1980! 22

Many teams with poor season records claim to be more talented than they are shown to be on paper. However, few teams deserve as much credit as this year's Newton South Cross-Country Team. With a 1-5 season, South's record hardly reflects a solid performance. However, there certainly was no lack of ambition as South won its first meet in two years, a definite improvement. Furthermore, Bob Mosca and Ieff Nottonson consistently placed in all their meets. Seniors Bob Partridge, Bob Fast, Matt Kelley, and sophomore Mark Koning all placed in at least one meet during the season. Ieff recorded the teams best time of the season with a 13:39 mark at Mount Ida, South's home course. The personal achievements of Newton South's run- ners are numerous. Ieff Nottonson and Bob Mosca placed fourth and twelfth, respectively, in the Dual County League meet. This meet takes place at the end of the year and involves all the Leagues runners. Because of their respectable performances, Ieff and Bob were first team all-stars. Bob Partridge's fine running in the meet placed him on the second team. South presented the Most Improved Player Award to Bob Fast. He im- proved his time in every meet at Mount Ida with an overall improvement of 32 seconds. Iennifer Sharp showed her eagerness as she was the only girl on the team. It is hoped that next years overall participation will be greater. 21

Q- ,aw-avr -4491 U? isis-u Lo- 4' :Fi if 44 -1 - Al- x I BGYS' SOCCER For the Newton South Boys' Soccer Team, the season was one of growth, learning, and utter frustration. While the record of 1-8-3 was an improvement over last year's mark, the team still failed to fulfill its potential. Even so, we were in all but three games, with two of the ties occurring when our opponent scored with less than three minutes left in the game. What distinguished this year's team from the past was enthusiasm and a willingness to work hard. The team was young with returning seniors, Ken Robbins and Robert Schlossman, anchoring key positions in the de- fense. There were no stars on the team, but coaches Hans Westerkamp and Stelois Groussis expected every- one to do his best. What we lacked in skills and size we made up in determination and hustle. The season opened with an impressive 2-1 win over Concord-Carlisle. However, the team suffered a crippl- ing blow when, in the seasons debut, first string goalie Greg Brown was lost due to an injury. Nevertheless, next year's team, with a strong nucleus returning, should prove more competitive than this year's team. The new co-captains, Paul Aries and George Groussis, will be ably supported by Mike Duffy, Peter Schlossman, Keith Harris and Kyle Richards. The talents of leaving seniors Ken Robbins, Greg Brown, Robert Schlossman, Brian Duffy, Devin Stewart, Martin Bern, and Steven Pilavin will be greatly missed next year. if i irst Bow Martin Bern Roiert Schlossmin Devin Stewart Capt Greg Brown Capt Ken Robbins Bri in Duffx Brian McNally Stexen Pilaxin Second How Mike Duffv Harald Poulsen Paul Aries Daxid Miller Dixid Phillips lxxlt Richards keith Harris Ceorgt Croussis Third Bow Coach Stan Croussis Louis Dakovannis lly lx xe Eddie llZ Randy Wong Prter Sthlossmin Coich Hans Westerk imp if ,Y iw' .
