Lady Eagles dominate tournaments en route to winning season HAYDEN This emotional game came at Royal Valley in a highly contested bout against Hayden High School. The Ea- gles came away victorious, defeating the Wildcats 15-7 and 16-14. After the game Coach GOEHRING said, l'm sure glad that one's over. ROSSVILLE Whenever Silver Lake and Rossville meet, it's very emotional and pres- surized. The semi-finals of the Ross- ville Tournament were just that. Rossville took the first match 15-11, then, behind consistent spiking, Sil- ver Lake took two in a row. T O FIRST PLACE TRQPHIES 333 - 5 C Sf! -.3: f unit.

Gratification evolves, not satisfaction There is a great deal of gratifica- tion fnot satisfactionj in having the type of season we had this year. Sat- isfaction leads to a willingness to stop improving and if we are going to be better coaches and players, each day we cannot be satisfied. l feel there are three basic reasons for this gratification. First, it is very rewarding to us as coaches to see the kids' hard work get rewarded. We have many players that work hard not only during the season but also during the off-season with our weight program and conditioning to prepare for fall. Secondly, there is a great deal of interaction and loyalty between our athletes and the community. There is no better way to show our loyal fans our appreciation than to come away with a State Championship. Lastly is the gratification of seeing a strong kinship between the mem- bers of our football family grow to a high emotional level. The maturity and loyalty that develops among the players is very special and unless a person has experienced it, he would have no idea how gratifying this real- ly is. To sum it up, it is just a super feeling and I hope this feeling stays around for a long time. COACH C.J.
