Deyarman Guardian Ange s By Chris Blackburn One of the wrestling team's biggest supporters were the grappelettes. This group of girls put in a lot of time and hard work this year in helping the wrestling team. The main purpose of the club use to be cheering on the wrestlers, but that has all changed. The club has expanded its responsibility to the wrestlers. The main one was keeping score, stats, and keeping time. They also gave flowers to the wres- tlers at school before a meet. Each girl was given a couple of wrestlers and she was to become their guardian angel. This meant that they would give gifts to their wres- tlers before a meet. The grapplettes were also the spirit of the team. You could al- ways see them at the meet cheering on the wrestling team. Megan Callaway ex- pressed her feeling about the club when she stated, IO guys to each girl! A ' M? . Eff A C1'f2?a45',.i .. . ,W Q., - ip V at V533 Mm M.. A. Oldham, V. Signori, A. Bock, B.

Melendez Art s Music By Chris Blackburn A few times a year the halls are full of the outstanding work of Poway High's art students. During this time the student body was welcomed to look at some of the art work that other students produced. For many people art is a way of self ex- pression and putting emotion on a canvas. Painting is like singing. You have to make the art work you're doing sing. Cne piece that I did this year took me six weeks to complete. Now it's finished and it is a symphony, stated three-year art student Chris Schmidt. Art deals with more than just slapping some paint on a canvas and calling it a masterpiece . Mrs. Margary Zacarias, the class instructor, felt that artists are born with the gene that makes a good art- ist. She stated, You are either born with the ability or you iust don't have it, but when students have the ability they are outstanding. Poway High's artist brought their originality to the campus.

HI HCYDSS Alex Bray asks his fellow Lacrosse members why the ball missed the goal. Cradle lt Bab By Chris Blackburn Lacrosse, the newest sport to reach Poway high school, finished its third sea- son this year under coaches Pete Larrabee and Bob Champion. The team grew in number to forty dedicated players. La- crosse combines the strategy of basket- ball, physical contact of football and en- durance of soccer. Returning player Sean DePriest commented, Lacrosse is unlike any other sport l've participated in. l joined because it was something new and different and not like most high school sports. One of this year's few female players, Cathy Elmore, explained, I watched the game last year and every one seemed to have a great time. l love it be- cause it's such a challenge. Larrabee add- ed, Despite the skills required, you can pick the basics up in about three weeks. This year Poway competed against local teams plus those from other states. Matt Bailey hoped that lacrosse becomes a CIF sport. 144 Lacrosse Matt Bailey reaches for the perfect catch. 411 V we ci ll '1 J' ,,, ,,,, ,v,,,,,,,., 4 my fl , 1 CLR? G. Lohman, Z. Burrel, J.

CS 4 b r Kusano P Melendez J Sye C Thibeault N Khadem J Gannon P Secor A Orluck J Schnurer P Watts M W D P By Chris Blackburn The California Scholarship Federation is a club that sets academic qualifications for its members. In order to qualify for this club students must have a grade point average of 3.5 or better. Anyone receiving a grade lower than a C is unable to be a member. This year's CSF only met a few times throughout the year. The main pur- pose of the club is to inform these stu- dents about the variety of scholarships ln November, the club sold Turkey Grams to help raise money for scholarships to be given to deserving members of the club. Outstanding member, Stephanie Arns, stated, Besides CSF being a source for information on scholarships, the people in this group really care about their future and that's what makes them special. CSF helps students who have high goals find the financial aid they need to go to the college of their choice. This organization has proved to be a great help to dedicated and hard-working students. M Brennan D Poon J Domvllle N Hazard J Schnur By Chris Blackburn The National Honor Society is a unique club for those students who strive for aca- demic excellence. Each member is re- quired to have a cumulative grade point average of at least a 3.7, and have partici- pated in extracurricular activities. Only Seniors and Juniors who met these re- quirements were able to participate in this distinguished organization. Many mem- bers of NHS were able to submit their names and accomplishments to Who's Who Among American High School Stu- dents , a book which contains a list of outstanding students from across the na- tion. Senior member, Helen McCIain com- mented with enthusiasm, l'm proud to be a member in a club that has a reputation for such high standards. Besides the prestige of belonging to NHS, the club also gave members the chance to share their future plans with others that also had ex- tremely high goals. To several prominent Poway students, the National Honor Soci- ety gave them the recognition that they deserved.
