Whether it is an attempt to move the ball one yard on fourth down, shooting two points in the final seconds, making a long putt, finishing the last lap, looking into the sun to catch a pop-fly, or passing a class to be elligible, it is the challenge to succeed in pressure situations, situations of physical and mental stress which all athletes must learn to conquer. These challenges will separate true athletes with dedication and desire from those who are along only for the glory. The challenge re- quires intense training, however the training is often overlooked even though it occupies more t i m e t h a n t h e competition itself. Within the training a challenge appears. The outside challenge of compe-tition deepens into an inner struggle in which the athlete strives to better himself. The inner drive to run one second faster, lift one pound more, or jump one inch higher eventually wins district championships and more. The effect of the athletic challenge affects more than athletes in a school of 2200. For those who are fans, the challenge is widened as fans support their team's efforts and join in on the players, battle by voicing their Sports concerns in hopes of detering the compe- tition. Quite often the fans, themselves, become an extra team member. In the midst of the challenge, muscles are strengthened, speed increased, skills sharpened, friendships were made, bones broken, and character was built. After the challenge there will almost always be a winner and a loser. The participants in the challenge both on and off the court, field track, or diamond learn the exhilleration of con- quering an opponent. And when the challenge is too intense, they learn the pride of losing respectably. The athletic chal- lenges have a massive impact upon the school. Students improve individually. School teams which become victorious increase the school pride among all students. The community, as spectators of the high school challenges, recognize school spirit and the atmosphere of hope and production. Participation in all sports, whether on the intramural level or on the varsity level allow students to develop and express their Rebel Style, a style which can con uer any challenge.
