POM PONS “Funky” Floor Moves Top Shows In November, four members of the squad, Shelly Grimm, Heather Herrick, Traci Patchin and Jennine Pufahl, attended a pom pon clinic at Madison LaFollette High School where they learned and brought back new and exciting moves. Because of this, all the rou- tines featured new pom passes and moves done seated on the floor. In order to arrange sufficient practice space and polish routines, the squad met for 7:00 A.M. practices on performance days. Doughnuts and orange juice provided by Miss Waldinger gave needed energy. Sue Mikle and Jennine Pufahl were voted Co-Captains by the squad. All members were assigned to groups to choreograph and teach new routines to the entire squad. The season got off to a great start with a smash routine done to the popular “Tequila , choreographed by Heather Herrick and Traci Pat- chin. In addition to “Tequila”, the squad performed to “Champion- ship , Apache”, “NFL , “It’s So Easy , “Bubbles Was A Cheer- leader , and Great Balls of Fire. For the final game of the season, which was Parents' and Seniors’ Night, the squad performed a spe- cial routine which started with Shawn Cassidy's Da Doo Run Run” but later changed to the big hit of half-time — California Girls by David Lee Roth, both of which were choreographed by the five seniors. For this routine the girls wore color- ful jams, T-shirts and sunglasses. Pom Pon Squad — Front: Sara Jarred. Renee Skaar, Jessica Seipel, Rachael Kluge. Denise Miller Row 2: Tammy Howe.

WRESTLING Suchomel Goes 31-2 I ack of numbers and ineligibil- ™ ity plagued the Bulldog wres- tling team. Even with low numbers the wrestlers never gave up and did their best in every match. The team only won two meets this year, beat- ing Northwestern Prep and Deer- field, although the Bulldogs came close in a few others. At the Confer- ence Tournament Brad Suchomel took first, Trevor Walker took sec- ond, and Judd Becker took third. At the Regional Tournament in Oak- field Brad, Judd, and Trevor all took first, thereby going on to the Sec- tionals at Waterloo. The fine effort given by all the wrestlers was highlighted by the performance of Brad Suchomel, who went undefeated until Section- als where he lost his last two match- es and just missed going to State. Judd Becker also had a good sea- son, improving towards the end, topped off by placing second at Sectionals and going to State. Even though he didn't place at the State Tournament, he was proud of his performance. Trevor Walker ended his high school wrestling career with a 25-8 record and took fourth at Section- als. The only other Senior on the team was Craig Lowe, who unfortu- nately couldn't finish the season be- cause of ankle problems. Scott Miles, Dave Price, and Craig Lowe all had a good season, with consistent wrestling helping the team. These Juniors are looking forward to a good Senior season. Eric Green, a Freshman, had a tough year wrestling at 155 lbs. when he only weighed 145 lbs.
