Coached by Clyde Robards. the JV football team spent long hours of hard work that eventually paid off as the team overwhelmed their first three op- ponents: Lassen, Hug. and Sp arbs. After a hard-fought loss to South Tahoe. the team reeled off five straight victories, including a 23-2 mauling of the Wooster Colts. Operating the powerful offensive line were Bob Blanda. who rushed for 1 , 100 yards in eight games, Shawn Boskie. John Manoubian, and Jeff Tomac. Defensive standouts includ- ed Brian Foster. Joe Rissone, Jim At- cheson, and Thane Fisher. The freshman football team. coached by Everett Marble, entered their high school football career in one of the dominant football schools in the state. Most valuable player Joe Blanda carried the team, ably assisted by outstanding players Joe Beauchamp. John Klaich. and Ted Kimmel. The team started off the season with 6 shutouts that could be credited to the excellent defensive worb done by Chris Heath, who had 9 interceptions for the year. Mibe Mer- chant. Joe Blanda. and Scott Kozel. After these shutouts, however, the team suffered their first loss to Car- son. They then came bacb with a vic- tory over Douglas, but unfortunately lost the next 2 games. The team ' s highly respectable 7-3 season record certainly proved that they could carry on the Husbie foot- ball tradition of excellence.

N ' Kickers gained valuable skills Dependent upon teamwork and communication, soccer once again proved to be an exciting sport at Reno High School. During the long and strenuous dciily practice ses- sions, Coach Tony Vegalatos helped each player develop correct soccer skills, never hesitating to prciise the team when they performed well. Competition during the regular season was tough and tested the stamina and skill of each player. The Huskies finished their exhausting season in the second place position with a 7-6-1 record; many of their games, however, were lost in the final minute. Unfortunately, the Huskies ' skill and determination fail- ed them during the zone playoffs cis they were eliminated in the first round by Carson High. Taking care of most of the scoring were offensive starters Paul Warren, Warren Rapp, Eric Ottenheimer, and John Batcabe. Helping defend the goal were John Nyberg, Dan Nyberg, Dirk Borgognoni, and Shawn Mat- thews, with Bill Clark acting as goalie. Other standouts were Ken Tank ' Brown, Chris Williams, Dan Siegel, Matt Duggan, and Dan Borkowski. This year ' s promising freshmen were exposed to conference play throughout the season, and they pro- ved to be a valuable asset to the team. It was unfortunate that this year ' s soccer games had such a low fan turnout. It is possible, however, that future games will not be played at the Governor ' s Bowl but instead on the high school fields themselves. Perhaps this might have a noticeable effect on fan turnout and give this in- ternational sport the recognition and respect it already receives elsewhere. KEEPING THE BALL from going out of bounds.
