During this hectic schedule, the cross- country team also battled other natural obstacles that involved intense training and dedication. At the meet in La Cresenta we ran in 102° weather; we were hating life, said senior Kristin Peters. Senior Christi Friebe said, We ran through 5 inches of mud during practice down in Bonelli Park Creek one day. Besides pushing their physical condition to the limit, they also had fun. Most of them enjoyed the company of each other and sometimes thought of themselves as one big family. Senior Mike Alarcon said he enjoyed travelling to Oceanside down near San Diego for a meet, and getting out of school early. Also some team members would sometimes make cookies or brownies for the team and the team mates would scarf on them in a matter of seconds. At last the season ended with the girls ' team second in league and the top runner, senior Kristin Peters second individually in league. The boys ' varsity didn ' t have enough people to have a team, so they forfeited all their meets; but certain individuals, like junior Steve Boys ' FroshSoph Cross George Jaeger country SD Opponent 35 Bonita 22 19 Edgewood 63 15 Ganesha 50 15 Bassett 50 40 Sierra Vista 17 41 Azusa 18 15 Gladstone 50 41 Baldwin Park 4-4 20 McFadden, ran varsity to keep their standings in varsity sports.

Ok 76e 1£i?6t 7 c6 Before the new season had even begun, summer conditioning, two-a-day practices, and passing league games were held to help build spirit, pride, and commitment as well as skills. In the fall, Wednesday afternoon study hall before night practice at the district field and Friday reports helped maintain the players ' grades. The combination of emphasis on responsibility in class as well as on the field provided mental conditioning for the team. Players spent time before each game concentrating on the game, the plays, and the job to be done. Finally, this practice, study, and concentration resulted in a successful season. Junior Erick Ware remembered his kick off return for 50 yards against Gladstone: I tried to get the team fired up because it was an important game. The game was also a highlight for junior Felix Badibanga who carried the ball for the go-ahead touchdown. When you physically defeat someone it makes you feel good, said junior John Baseel. It also makes you feel good, senior Ron Paoletto said, beat ing Azusa in a close game and being able to walk in a right mind after. The personal goal of head coach Dick Shelbourne was to win league and go to the play-offs. With only one loss in league, to Baldwin Park, the team came up just short and finished second. In the first round of C.I.F. they travelled to Victor Varsity Football Dick Shelbourne SD Opponent 21 Pomona 7 6 Ontario 14 Bonita 14 6 Diamond Bar 25 3 Baldwin Park 17 34 Sierra Vista 6 42 Bassett 14 7 Azusa 6 10 Gladstone C.I.F. 7 6 Victor Valley 6-3-1 14 Valley, where they played hard, giving a tough battle, but losing in the end.
