S O C C E R S The soccer season began with a dream. There were visions of running down the soccer field and scoring an unlimited amount of goals while many fans watched intently. Maybe the dream included an unde- feated season or a gratifying win over Arapahoe or Cherry Creek. But before this fantasy be- came reality, the players real- ized that they had to work hard. We were willing to spend time practicing in order to do our best at games,', said Fr. Chris Spears. Practices included late sum- mer workouts, and after school, dailies started. They consisted of drills for quickness, attack- ing concepts, and conditioning. The best part of the season was winning, said Fr. Brant Witzel. Their 7-4 record showed that winning was what they did. This was Overlandis best recordever for freshmen soccer. Earning team awards were Most Improved Fr. Chris Spears, Most Inspirational Fr. John Chung, and the Most Valuable Player Fr. Steve Jor- dan. Kicking, passing, and weav- ing through opponents, the sophomore team worked to- wards their dream also. 'gThe Arapahoe game was our best game and most exciting be- cause we were the only team from our school to beat them, said Fr. Cary Johnson. Our team's goal was not to worry so much about our win- loss record and concentrate more about the game itself, said Coach Jerry O'Grady. Some of the JV players want- ed more out of the game than just a winning season. I had a good time becoming better friends with lots of people, and it was something fun to do after school, said Jr. Chris Creaney. One team goal was to im- prove teamwork. Coach Debbie Etchison said, The best part was that we started working just as individuals and towards the end we worked well as a team. Winning team awards were Most Improved Jr. Mike Ibra- him, Most Inspirational Fr. Chad Davis, and Most Valu- able Player Soph. Ian Fried- man. As the season came to a close, players from each team had a chance to look back and discov- er dreams can come true.
