Cards Set New School Won-Lost Golf Record Fore! The Duffers are on the loose again. The 1966 Cardinal golf team was one of the two bright spots for RFHS in athletics sharing the spotlight with the tennis team. The golfers posted a brilliant 18-1 won-lost record, and they set a new school record. In the Conference meet the Cards toured the last nine holes in 146 strokes topping the old record of 149. Before faltering in the Region, the team has won the Southwest Conference championship and the District 10 trophy. The Cards qualified five men for the Region Three meet: Steve Walling, Dave Stanton, Craig Laberee, Jim Larson, and Brad Berberick. Steve Walling was district medalist. In the Region, how- ever, the Cards lost to Hutchinson, a team which they had beaten twice during the regular season, once by 17 strokes and again by 7 strokes. But the Cardinals has a bad day, and wound up more than ten strokes off the pace. Senior Steve Wall- ing and junior Brad Berberick qualified for the State golf meet which was held at the University of Minnesota. Shooting a 162 for 36 holes, Walling placed twenty-third in a field of 78. Steve was also the second highest finisher from Region Three. Members of the 1966 golf team include: SE- NIORS: Craig Laberee, Dave Stanton, Steve Walling. JUNIORS: Brad Berberick, Jim [.ar- son. Steve Sinner. SOPHOMORES: Don Buck- ley, Rick Kreuger. The beginning point for meets, pr art ices, and summer evenings. 23

%owie! Matmen!! The 1965-66 season was mainly a year of re- building for coach Guy Jenks. Several of last year's District Ten championship team gradu- ated. and the task was left to a nucleus of under- classmen. The Cards had tough sledding throughout most of the season as they wrestled several highly ranked teams. One thing that was not lacking was the excite- ment. The wrestlers had some real cliff-hangers with the outcome often determined by the final match. The Cards failed to win the district cham- pionship for the first time in ten years but placed a respectable third. Denny Reck, Bill Boots, and Robin Norcutt capped district titles in their re- spective weight divisions. The Redwood grap- plcrs proceeded to the region tourney where they placed sixth. Reck and Boots both went to the state championship meet but were eliminated in early rounds. The wrestling team, choosing not to have a single captain, was led by tri-captains Denny Reck, Bill Boots, and Butch Soupir. Dennis Reck goes for another pin.
