Alligator women showed spirit Throughout Homecoming Week at Reno High School, students displayed their tremendous spirit by p articipating in numerous activities. Homecoming included a preppie dress-up day, highlighted by a lunch- time assembly put on by the cheerleaders. Various routines were performed, and eunong the most memorable was the songleaders ren- dition of Alligator Woman by Cameo. Class dress-up days dominated the week, and students were able to show their true selves by means of original costtunes. Seniors traveled back in time to the roaring 2p ' s, decked out in outlandish flapper and gangster outfits. Juniors exhibited their hippie inclinations by wearing beads, flowers, and unusual decor on their T-shirts. The typical tourist was mocked by the sophomores as they wandered through the halls looking for a place to vacation. The freshmen elaborated their ideas of ideal futures with a career day, and occupations from garbage collectors to millionaires were displayed. Outrageous lunchtime activities en- couraged student spirit and en- thusiasm. Activities included a humorous food-eating [ ac-man game, which ended in disqualifica- tion of all the classes except the freshman, who did not engage in the pie fight. Other games such as a pass-the-orange-with-your-vneck game, and a lifesaver-on-the- toothpick pass were also an exciting part of the day. Red and Blue day concluded the dress-up days for homecoming week, as a sea of red and blue was seen in the halls. The student en- thusiasm expressed throughout the week made Homecoming ' 82 better than ever! LEARNING THE ROPES to float building, Scott Boyden and John Estes add the finishing touches to the freshmen float. DIVING INTO HIS pie.

f Reno avenged Douglas defeat I t Until their loss to the Reed Raiders in the final game of the 1962 season. Reno had previously lost only one other game to any team other than Wooster in over a decade of football: the Douglas Tigers had upset Reno in the 1981 sccison. So in the 1982 Homecoming game, it seemed quite fitting that the Huskies should avenge this defeat from Douglas. And so they did. Sparing no mercy. Reno toob it to the Tigers. 45-6. In an explosive game, the Huskies scored on six occasions, topping it all off with a 40-yard Maurizio Manca field goal. Running back Adam Zunino starred with three impressive touchdowns. The other scorers in- cluded Jimmy Osbom. Rob Piekarz. and Brian Filippini, with his score on an interception. Defensively, the Huskies perform- ed brilliantly, shutting down a nor- mally successful Douglas offense. Reno managed to contain the tough Douglcis backfield of Lamont Mc- Cann. Lesle McDonald, and sophomore quarterback John St. Germain. Standouts for Reno on defense in- cluded end Chip Stempeck. tackles Damon Trim and Jim Parker, linebacker Howdy Davis, and back Brian Filippini. It was esF ecially satisfying for Reno fans to see their team emerge vic- torious at their homecoming. This victory provided them and their team with a better than ever I982 Homecoming Week. FIRED UP FOR game, Nancy Laveaga cheer- fully urges on the Huskies ROUNDING THE RIGHT end. Adam Zunino sweeps Douglas Tiger Car! Keitch out of his path. SKILLFULLY PROTECTING A Reno running bdcb.
