The team members were selected from among 25 golfers. Tryouts for the team involved 90 holes of golf, and the eight boys with the lowest scores made the team. Senior members where Chipper Banks, Steve McElhanon, and All Willard. Iuniors were Doug Ford, Paul Makowsky, and Brian McLaughlin. Mark Lukder and Ioe Ralston were also on the team. Golf Coach Iohn Narkinsky said that only four members participated in each of the 13 matches. All eight played an 18 hole qualify! ing round before each match, and the four with the lowest scores were allowed to compete, he said.

Volleyball teaches the bump The bump may have been a popular dance to most students, but to the volleyball team, it was also a technique used to hit the ball. At a two day clinic held before try-outs, the girls learned how to set, serve, block, spike, and bump too. Coach Kristy Parnell said that all these techniques were required for try- outs. She also took into considera- tion their attitude. After try-outs, 33 girls were chosen to be on the team. For prac- tice, the team had an inner-squad tournament. Four teams were formed to play each other. The Cadillac Cats won, with Nix's Trix- es, Curry's Cons, and Hoggatt's Hogs all tying for second place. During the season, Northeast played eight schools, and par- ticipated in the state tournament, where they tied for fifth place with jonesboro. The tournament was held at UALR and Northeast. Including the games played at the tournament, the team closed their season with 14 wins and B losses. Carol Dimond Helpin' out-Bonita Curry backs up Kathy Nix in a game against Mount Saint Mary's.
