As the winter sports came to an end, it came time to get ready for the banquet. This annual banquet is held so the mem- bers of all four basketball teams and the wrestling team can be recognized. The ded- icated athletes, parents, coaches, and cheerleaders, who attended this affair were treated to a dinner and later were able to see many of the individual winners from each team. The cheerleaders were also rec- ognized as they received certificates from their sponsors. As the affair came to an end and the proud and dedicated coaches said good- bye to their teams, especially the Seniors, the waiting for the next session began. Some team members can look forward to next year’s session, while the seniors look back at what great team members and coaches they once had here at Northside.

The 1987-1988 Eagles Track Team was made up of a large group of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Each member helped to make the season successful. With eve- ning practices, usually at the stadium, the team geared up for the competitive season ahead. They traveled to Gainesville, Flori- da, where they participated in the Florida Relays. “The Boys performance was not at potential so early in the season, but the experience was good for the teams,”’ said Coach Terry Gallaher. The annual Robins Relay was held at International City Stadium. Competition was tough, but the Eagles managed a 2nd place standing in these relays. Tony Head successfully broke the State Record in the 100 meter run, which was held by Herschel Walker. Herschel set his record which was of 10.4 seconds for the 100 meter run at these same Relays several years ago. Tony's 100 meter run record is clocked at 10.3. The last major regular season met was the Region Finals, where Northside placed second. Seven members advanced to the State Semi-finals. Individual winners in- cluded Tony Head, 1st in the 220-Meter run and 2nd in 100-Meter. Also, Thomas Brown won Ist in 110-Meter high hurdles. Thomas Brown and Tony Head both hold state records in running events. Although, the mile relay team was disqualified, the Ea- gles still managed a 3rd place standing overall in the State Finals. The 1987-88 Eagles’ Boys Track Team saw many triumphs throughout the sea- son, which were valuable to the great suc- cess of the team. Billy Cummings puts all of his emotions into his running.
