Congratulations are in order for the members of the 1983 football team. Their 10-1 record is the best in our school's history. Many of our team goals were reached this year, the first being capturing the league champion- ship for the second year in a row. One other goal was to go undefeated during our regular scheduled season which we did with 9-0. This was the first time in the school's history that this has been accomplished in football. The last goal was to play in the state play- offs. Again, our team defeated Oskaloosa in overtime, and moved on to the next round of competition which was the regionals at Pittsburg-Colgan where we received our only defeat of the year, and unfortunately, prevented us from further state competition. Many of our players received recognition for their outstanding play this year, beginning with All-League Honors: Doug Parks, 1st team offensive Guard Jeff Wheat, 1st team offensive Tackle and 1st team Defensive End Bruce Kayser, 1st team Offensive Back Field and 1st team Defensive Linebacker Brent Cox, 1st Team Defensive Lineman Second team honors went to Craig Kimball, Defensive End Tom Eckelberry, Offensive Back Charles Denison, Defensive Lineman Brad Karr, Defensive Linebacker Doug Parks, Defensive Back Tom Eckelberry, Defensive Back A high honor went to Bruce Kayser this year by being named to the All-State 2A Defensive team as a linebacker. My congratulations to these young players and the rest of our 1983 football team. They all worked hard for their record this year.

From the sweltering heat of the first prac- tices, through the regular season to the sub-state in Burlington the lady cats moved. The team seemed to like winning a match in three games which was harder, but they did win. Then as confidence and teamwork improved, they won their matches in two games. There were some losses as the 13-9 record shows. However, this 1983 team showed spunk and energy in practice and on the court. The senior co- captains, Chris Wyda and Catherine McKernan pro- vided good leadership. 1983 was a rebuilding year for this Volleyball team. They finished third in the Lyon County League, but are still number one with their coaches. 2 V SEAN BUFFUM CHUCK HUGHES Front Row: K. Bowers, S. Buffum, J. Cimino, K. Stone Back Row: Mr. Roberts, T. Mundy, L. Williams, J. Voorhees, C. Hughes, R. Story COACHES COMMENTS The 1983 Wildcat Cross Country team was the best yet in the young NHHS C.C. history. Even though few in number, this team set some b� g goals, and worked hard to reach them. The one main goal was to reach State. The turning point of the season happened to be the very first meet at Rossville. The Cats ran well and brought home their first trophy with a third place finish out of twelve teams. From there, things began to blossom. The improvement from last year, 10th out of 14 was tremendous. The early season of hard work had paid off. From Rossville we went to Holton to a 3A - 4A meet. On a tough course with larger schools, this was a tough race. Out of the five teams that beat us. two were 4A and the other three would end the season with NHHS at the State Met with the Cats beating one of them. We continued to run well until Regionals, winning two meets, taking 3rd out of 9 teams twice, and placing 4th out of 11 at another 3A - 4A meet at Silver Lake. Due to the increase of student population. Heights jumped from 2A to 3A making their goal of going to State a harder goal to reach. The Cats were to reach their goal. We traveled to Riley County's home course to compete with nine other schools for the chance to go to Manhattan to the 1983 State C.C. Meet. Riley County, a team we had previously beaten twice, used their home course advantage to be the only team to beat the Cats. Riley county 1st - NHHS 2nd. A loss we would avenge later. On November 5, we traveled to Manhattan to the State C.C. Meet. The Cats came through, beating Perry-Lecompton, who had beaten us badly at Holton, and edging out Riley County for 6th place in class 3A. The goal had been reached. The 1983 squad, dealing with a new coach, showed much pride and determination and have a record to be proud of as it goes down into the record books. First Row: Dale Weber-trainer, Bruce Kayser, Kent Eckstrom, Brett Huffman, Ron Compton, Tony Moore-trainer, Second Row: Coach Doug Boline, Jeff Wheat, Craig Kimball, Doug Parks, Lanny Massey, Tim Mercer, Tom Eckelberry, Head Coach Ralph Setter. (Not Pictured: Brent Cox) The 1983-84 basketball team finished the year 12-9. The Wildcats took third place in the conference standings with a 6-2 record. This year also marked the return of N.H.H.S. to the finals of the Lyon County League Tournament. This was only the second time in 11 years that the Wildcats had made it for the finals. Flinthills took the championship with a 72-57 win. The Wildcats also took third place in the Council Grove Invitational Tournament, playing mainly against 4A competition. The team had 11 lettermen this year, with six seniors earning their bars. The team was led in power points by Doug Parks with Craig Kimball showing a strong second. The 1984-85 team returns four lettermen, with three of those being starters. Another season of success is anticipated by all.

Six of our losses this year were to teams who competed in the State Tournament. The Wildcats scored an average of 46 points this year, while their opponents scored 48 points. So you can see, our games were close and competitive. Going into the Substate Tournament, Northern Heights had a rather poor record. Due to this fact, the girls knew they had to play to the best of their abilities, and that they did! In the first game, they beat the 2nd seeded team in the tournament, St. Marys. In the semi-finals, the Wildcats defeated Nemaha Valley by one point. The championship game was played against Silver Lake, who had won the State 3A Tournament two years in a row. The Wildcats ended the season losing to Silver Lake by 9 points. Silver Lake went on to win the State Tournament for the third time in three years. The Wildcats will miss two very fine seniors next year, Chris Wyda and Catherine McKernan. Catherine was chosen as a unanimous selection to the Lyon County All-League team. 1. Chris looks for the open person. 2. Katherine gets open for a layup. 3. Michelle puts it up in a crowd. 4. Tom Lowry and Don Kayser watch the skirts. 5. Tammy outjumps shorty for the ball. 6.

We had four first place medals with Sean Buffum winning the mile and the half mile and Jim Ford winning the low hurdles and the intermediate hurdles. Jim set a league record in the low hurdles.

Still, the girls placed at several meets and tied for 3rd at the Lyon County League track meet. The girls went on to a very tough 3A Regional track meet at Rossville, where Tammy Just qualified in the 800 meter run and Catherine McKernan qualified in the long jump, the 100 meter high hurdles and the 300 meter intermediate hurdles for state.
