Endless hours of demanding prac- tice. All this means one thing to a wrestler - sacrifice. Sacrificing their bodies and time in order to accomplish one shared goal - to qualify for state competition. But hard work, dedication, and self-discipline were just a few of the qualities that were required of a good wrestler. These qualities were not only advocated by Head Coach Eric Jobgen, but shown in Jeff Hester and Bryan Noble, the two state qualifiers from North, but in the Four Muskateers as well. At first I was in a daze because I thought it would be more than it was, commented Bryan Noble about his championship in the districts. Net' fi N, The Four Muskateers, which included Terry Huff, Bryan Noble, Mark Schlichting, and Curt Schreiber were the weight of the team partly because they were so strong and experienced. All Four Muskateers wrestled at Central last year, so defeating the Blue Devils during the season was a definite highlight for all of them. Competing against previous teammates sounds difficult, but according to Terry Huff, 'gl liked it. It was a chance for revenge and to prove myself in front of old coaches. As well as the varsity team, the junior varsity and sophomore wrestlers made their mark in history as North's first wrestling team by contributing all of their time and energy to make this year a memorable one.
