N3 4th State Meet NS 'ith Districts 54 SPORTS For second-year coach Bill Wittkowski and the Boys Cross Country team, 1982 was the best yet. Led by Senior captains Tony Gates and Mike Campana, the Lancers won the Linn-Mar lnvita- tional for the third time in tour years. Coach Wittkowski was hoping tor a two peak season with the second peak coming at the confer- ence and district meet. That is exactly what hap- pened as the team had tour runners, Campana, Gates, Chris 1-lubbs, and Kendel Richlen, broke the eleven minute barrier. This was the first time this had been done at North Scott. Mike Campana also finished second at districts and broke his own school record at State with a time of lO:O6, allow- ing him to place 12th in the meet. The Lancers finished sixth in the conference and a surprising seventh in the district out ot six- teen teams.

MV l 1 Mil V 4 s IDII llQlliflEll3' i X N IZIEIIQS l Q An idle football awaits eager players during summer practice. The boxes of trophies and those lin- ing the windows of B-hall as well as those displayed in the lobby, attest to the record of North Scott High and ath- letic competition. The Miscowa, Big Bend and lllowa conferences yielded to the illustrious Mississippi Eight with discussion this year of yet another possibility in our future. These conferences have always provided us with competitive teams against which to battle in the never- ending contest to see who can win. The names of past coaches Ray Cles, Dick Snyders and Leon Fox bring memories of the beginnings and high- lights of our programs. The teams and individuals led by these men will re- main changed by their mutual exper- iences. Players from the sports pages in- clude first NS letter winners Bill Bales, lohn Carlin, Marvin Dittman, Richard Kendelsperger, Merlyn Madden and Dean Schneckloth. Later headliners like Bill Frazier, Dave Kluever, Koreen Knutson and Peggy Geary remain names in discussions. The original season ticket for 53.00 has inflated away to many tickets today, but the same crowd excitement and interest remains. The addition of the practice gym, ex- panded wrestling facilities in l97l and the new stadium bleachers in 1982 are but two of the additions to our physical plant. As long as there is the drive to sweat and be best, sports will be alive and well at North Scott High! EDITED BY ERIC TEDUITS 53

Sophornores Wendy Bare and Kim Schneckloth along with senior Dana Hillyer each hold the school record for two miles which stood 11:46 at the end of the year. This strong power enabled the Lancers to domi- nate the Linn-Mar and Muscatine lnvitationals with victories by 44 and 14 points respectively. The Lancers were shooting for a top five position which they achieved with a fourth place finish. Wendy Bare ran a remarkable race and finished fifth in the state. This feat qualified her for the all- state distance running team. lllix . AN t'.l5'JNNtNfw1l..l'tilimi M .f user'--.ii -F.l3i'll!TT1ilt W. tiara- lvl.
