JV boys soccer gives 200 percent This year's version of the Junior Varsity soccer team had a great year. Their season record of nine wins and two losses clearly showed that the JV kickers gave 200'Zi throughout the season. Leading the Dragons through the epoch was Sean McCarter, sophomore, who scored a number of goals this year as a result of his tactical playing. Unfortunately, McCarter in- jured his ankle at the end of the season and the team had to do without him for the last few games. The JV players came through though, and finished their successful season. 'rio Mike Penske, junior, passes the ball across the field to a teammate who scored against the Warriors.

BOYS VARSITY GYMNASTICS: tFirst Bowl Darrin Phillips QSecond Row! Boys undefeated yet State raise keeps them home In 1983-84, the boys varsity gymnastics team went undefeated. Round Rock came on strong to overcome Anderson, McCallum, Crockett, Johnston, LBJ, Lanier and Travis. The closest match of the season was against Bryan. Round Rock took the meet by only three tenths of a point. The boys did a super job to place second at the Regional Meet. Coach Brandy Haney explained the absence of RR at State Competition, This year the qualifying score for a boys team to go to state was raised by thirty points. This kept the boys home as a teamg they made the qualifying score as it was last year. lt was obvious the raise of thirty points in one year was too steep, as there were few boys teams in the state meet. Captains for this team were Jason Crawford and Matt Leibel. Strong leader- ship helped the boys obtain their outstand- ing record. Matt Barbini was the Most Im- proved Gymnast for the boys team.
