The staff raised enough money to extend the book eight pages without even rais- ing the price! The staff has put a lot of time into making this the best yearbook ever.

He felt it was one of the most rewarding years for the players and the coaches since the team was not expected to accomplish so much. The team is loosing several seniors but has a fine nucleus of underclassmen returning. Coach Orvis and the team are looking forward 10 another exciting soccer season next year. I a l 'n Below. R 1.

They were league champs with a record of 11 wins - no losses - 1 tie. A strong defense. accurate passes. and good Liming were the. keys that helped them put together 7 shut-outs during the season. In state tournament action Proctor didn't fare as well. The team lost to Whitcomb 1-0 in the quaner finals. 20 Belem. sitting. D. Morgan, R. DelEianco. Kneeling. H. lomuon. B. Hickey. D.

BO YSt VA RSITY BA SKETBA LL Under rookie coach Wade Mitchell the phantoms had a very successful and exciting season as they won the M division of the Marble Valley League and advanced to the class M state finals. Opening the season with 12 straight wins the Phantoms eventually ended up with a 19-5 record as they were upset by West Rutland in the finals 44-39. In winning the MVL the Phantoms knocked off Class I champs Burt and Burton 68-59 and extentled the school's winning streak to 41 straight unbeaten games before bowing to Fair Haven. Kneeling.

They reached the toumeys and beat Concord 59-48. In the quarterfinals the girls lost a hard game to Whitcomb 42-36. Ludlow held a Christmas tournament. but the Phantomeues could not pull in a vic- tory. High scorers included Dianne Degnen with 219 points. Pam Shostak with 191. and Andy Larson with 181. Judy Frazier collected a total of 201 rebounds and Ann Zani 148. Sopho- more Deb Provencher was a big help when relief was needed. with no returning starters. the 1976-77 Phanto- mettes should have a very interesting year! 21 22 VARSITY CHEERLEA D- ERS The past year was a. most exciting one for the cheerleaders. We had two great squads of hard working athletes. They spent many hours devel- oping new cheers and pep rally ideas. Their poster contest was very successful and the results graced our gym through- out the season. A spec- tacular pep rally was staged before the state finals but unfortunately didn't seem to do the nick. Left. Iop-bouom. M. Smith. Pe Shnstak. E. Weidman. Me Corey. T. Lenola. I. Allard. Nevertheless. the girls were the epitome of good sportsmanship under some very trying situmions. They attended a cheerleading clinic at M51 and placed second against other Rutland County schools.

Along the way Proctor beat Class 1.. power Brattleboro and Class I state champs Otter Valley. proving that the Phantoms are as good as any team in the state. and that they are still number 1 23 TEAM PHOTO: Front.

The squad consisted of 20 eager players. most of whom saw action in well over half the games. The high point of the season came when they dropped a 43-40 decision to West Rutland in an aetion-packed final in the jr. high tournament. Many of the boys will be moving to the jr. varsity next year: however. there will be a strong contingent remaining behind from the 7th grade to insure great thin- in 1976-77.

Tanner. They played a lO-game schedule with a final standing of 2-8, which does not accurately reflect the tre- mendous progress. effort. and enthusiasm evident in all the play- ers.
