PHS Quakers dominate County x-countiy meet Growing in strength as the 1972 season progressed, the Quaker cross country team rebounded from last year's first win in forty-four dual meets to capture Plainfield’s first Hendricks County title. Record setting Steve Montgomery was named the team’s Most Valuable Runner after he placed first in the county meet and earned the Top Sophomore award at the Brazil In- vitational. Steve and Mark Wendt both made the All-Conference team after placing 5th and 8th, respec- tively, in the Mid-State meet. Beginning the season with only one returning letterman, the 1972 tennis squad suffered from lack of overall experience. In addition, the expanded Quaker schedule improved the caliber of competition faced by the Red Pride net men. Thus, determination not with- standing, the team could only put to- gether a 3-8 record. However, frosh Rick Scotten, jr. Mark Wurfel, and sr. John Hall placed in singles com- petition at the Mid-State matches and team captain Neal Owens scored four points for PHS in the sectionals. TENNIS TEAM. Back row; Charles Heald, Scotty Scotten, John Hall, Mark Wurfel, Neal Owens, Steve Weber, Kevin Eaton, Tom Fisher, Coach Muston; Front row; Greg Schuldt, Tom Lee, Rod Steele. Jim Day, Rick Scotten, Bob Adams, Jeff Cokain, Mike Reynolds. A shade too slow, soph. Steve Montgomery finishes second against Whiteland. Eye on the hall, sr. Neal Owens tenses for the return as PHS takes on Greenwood. Pride and awe fuse as sr. Mark Sinders and jr. Mark Wendt examine PHS s first County cross country trophy. Timing is all important to jr. Mark Wurfel reaching for a backhand return.
