HIEH-iles at SPIJHT5 . . . 66 E'RB from Rich and couldn't be prouder! This cry was heard many times during the year as Rich fans turned out to cheer their teams on to victory. The varsity football team started the bull rolling by bettering last season's record and chalking up a conference championship for Rich. The varsity wrestling squad showed a definite improvement this year, winning 6 of their 14 matches and placing fourth in the conference. Don Milligan went on to the state wrestling finals in Champaign before he was eliminated by the eventual state cham- pion. Our basketball team started the year knowing that it would not be easy to fill the shoes of last year's team. However, they exceeded all expectations by winning 25 of their 28 games during the season, capturing the conference, regional, and sectional cham- pionships, and traveling downstate to compete in the Sweet Sixteen illinois high school basketball tournament. The baseball team showed much improvement over last year's squad with eight lettermen returning to the team. The track team, sparked by many returning lettermen, posted a good season's slate, breaking many records in the process. The golf team played a full schedule of matches with neighboring high schools and gave a line account of themselves. Athletically as in every other way, we're from Rich-couldn't be prouder. -Joe Ogden
