Competing for the power Whether the sport was football, wrestling, soc- cer, or baseball, PPHS players spent many hours practicing after school. Whether playing in the pouring rain, the unendurable cold, or the scorching heat, the Patriots gave 100% of the time, all the time. They were stimulated to represent the school and to experience personal satisfaction. The story of a sports event could be told by the expressions of faces — assurance on the face of the coach, pride in the smiles of the parents, and happiness in the eyes of the athletes. However, disap- pointment could be seen on Patriot faces when they did not win. But this loss only added joy to the next victory. Each Patriot may not have received a trophy, but all were rewarded by the satisfaction of repre- senting the red, white, and blue, and contributing to the Power Behind the Pride. % ' • ' SPORTS DIVISION 179
