The girls ran ahead in track. The 880 relay team set a new record with a time of 2:00.'7 . The mile relay team also set a record of 4:28. Virginia Hensel set a new school record in the 440 with a time of 6:40 . Kathy Brezniak set a new 880 record with a time of 2:41.3. The coaches were often discouraged. They knew that whoever finishes first wins and unfortunately, that didn't happen often enough. Field events consisted of high jump and long jump, shotput and discus. Running events consisted of the mile, the half mile, the two mile, 440 run and relay, the 880 relay, 100 yard dash, mile relay, and the hurdles. Mr. Gutierrez was the coach. Mr. Ladd was the assistant. The co-captains were Dede McAllen and Kathy Brezniak.

Coach Trudeau thought the varsity aseball team had a chance of chal- lenging for the Southeastern Confer- nce title, but unfortunately was una- le to meet it. The team had very lit- le defense and very little hitting. Coach Trudeau said, It was a down ear as far as baseball at Novi. The sam had many injuries at the start of ne season and then could never put it Jgether to be a real threat. I-le was f 'Q vu . . E' , V' .1 aw-e.afswF-1.'?if1El .' . dl.

Heading the list of wounded were Randy Wroten and Ion Buck. Buck, a senior catcher, broke his ankle and Wroten, a senior outfielder, underwent surgery to correct a shoulder injury. Coach Trudeau said, Seniors Dave Beall and Greg Porter gave the team direction with their fine leadership. 'LQ' .fl 719. is -uf S. Rick Pretty and Randy Wroten also contributed to the success of the team . The pitching staff for the Wildcats was almost all underclassmen, Dennis Tuck was the only senior. Pitching was the weak spot of the team in the field. There were control problems which led in some runs for the opponents. Hitting was also a weak area for the Wildcats. They couldn't get any runs in.
