Some ot the top senior runners were Steve Bauer, Troy Murphy, and Daryl Lee, who was run- ning tor his tirst year. Tim Bentley and Ross Martiri were two top runners tor the junior class. During the summer, these and many other dedicated runners got up for six a.m. workouts and then returned for more training at six p.m., tive days a week. During the school year, varsity runners went from eight to ten miles per day in two workouts.

N ' , Girls' Swim Team Wet Behind The Ears Girls' swim team coach Barry Roth says, this year's edition of the girls' team is one of the youngest ever. The team was comprised of mostly under- classmen, with few juniors or seniors. For these Sabino girls swimming is a year round sport, with summer league swim teams, school swim programs, and many on off-season swim pro- grams. It is obvious that to be good one must be dedicated. These girls swim an average of 5000 to 6000 yards each practice, and start practices a few weeks before school, while most of us are still enjoying summer. Two of these girls on the Sabino team have earned the status of All-American. These two are Tiffany Johnson, and Kim Toro, both seniors. With excellent performances they led their team to victory at most of their meets this fall. The Saber girls looked very strong, with some of the swimmers' sights set on the Clympics. lt's a good chance we might be seeing some of them in Los Angeles this summer. By lon Benson Photos by W.
