This was the best record by far that has ever been posted by the young Silver Creek program. The team was prevailed by number one seeded Greg Harper ter who again won most valuable player honors. Senior Chris Sullivan held the number two seed rating. Tennis is still a relatively over- shadowed sport, but with the results obtained by this year's team, in years to come the program should be a very successful one. At least we are now off to a roaring start! ;a :32 5:! Ed Freshman Keith Gilbert poses for a picture, as Jon Hendren, John Witten, and Doug Martin load up for another match.

Cross Country Kenny Robinson wins MVP Award for the second year! ! i Silver Creek's cross-country team enjoyed some good and bad times this season. The Dragons got off to a somewhat dismal start, but overall the season was good, as the team progressed through the year to improve their performance. The Dragons competed in two trian- gular meets and posted overall wins in both. However, the Dragons countered that with five dual meet losses. The Dragons came back to place first in a five way match and second in another one. The season was truly one that see-sawed back and forth. Coach Trinkle comment- ed, We started out slowly, but I think we really came on strong in the end. Helping the Dragons to their seasonal success was Kenny Robinson who once agan won the Runner of the Year award. TOP: Coach Trinkle jokes around a bit at the beginning of practice.
