It was a real good year. Doubts Diminished Northwest entered the 1980-81 basketball season with plenty of optimism. With only two returning starters, many had doubts. Those doubts were soon forgotten when the Vikings won seven of their first ten games. The team gained much more confidence when they defeated .Aurora (58-54) in the conference tournament, the first time since 1976. They again downed Aurora in regular season (53-41). The third time wasn ' t the charm though as Aurora brought the Viking season to an end at 14-8. The captions are quotes from the four seniors, John Bauer, Dave Blake. Brian Hoglund and Brent Karley. 85

' We had a very successful season. I think Northwest is going to be a force to be reckoned with from now on. Three go to Omaha When spring comes, thoughts turn to track, one of the last sports of the year. Talent and attitude helped this years team gather two first place wins while achieving many other well earned placings. John Swanson managed to prove his ability by setting a new school record in the shot which qualified him for state along with Jeff Boeka in the shot and discus and Larry Brannagan in the 300 m low hurdles.
