men ' s cross countty Team depth leads harriers to 7-1 record With the Mustangs Men ' s Cross Country team returning only one regular varsity harrier from 1984, the 1985 season was sup- posed to be a rebuilding year. It turned out to be anything but that, as the team finished the dual meet season with a 7-1 record. The harriers had a 5-1 WLAA conference record and were 4-1 in the Western Division, narrowly missing the division crown in a close meet with rival Plymouth Canton. The consistent outings of Kevin Haas, Scott Wiley, Ken Booth, and John Kissinger paced the harriers all year. The team ' s depth, however, helped make the season so successful.

Wijmen ' s cross country Small but mighty 4-4 Coached by Ann Turnbull, the 1985 Women ' s Cross Coun- try team had an outstanding season. Led by senior co-captains Sue Blanchard and Wendy Nuechterlein, the team consisted of seniors Lynn Bills and Pam Cavanaugh, juniors Kris Mar- rone and Carol Olsen, sophomore Jennifer Goshorn, and freshman Nancy Belding. The team had a 4-4 record for the overall season and one state qualifier, Nuechterlein, who made her fourth appearance at the most prestigious meet of the season. Looking forward to the 1986 season, the Mustangs have four valuable runners returning. Sophomore Jennifer Goshorn strides to the finish line with senior Sue Blanchard at her heels.

Freshman Heidi Robins and sophomore Kathleen Kotarski, outstanding at third doubles, won their conference title. Freshman Abby Edwards, at third singles, won her division title. The combined junior-senior doubles teams of Dorothy Ziegler and Lisa Felicelli (first doubles) and Lauren Oliver and Jennifer Millgard (second doubles) captured their division titles as well.
