2 Sluggers w'n high acclaim Led by Head Coach Joe Panella, the varsi- ty baseball team was quite possibly as good as the 1984 club which ranked Num- ber 1 in the state. The varsity program consisted of a talented team, with many individual standouts. Brian Johnson and Raymond Sanders were among the high- est recruited players in the East Bay by College and pro clubs. Some other stan- douts were outtielders Joel Schlader, Robert Collier, and infielder Chris Isola. All of these players played for three years in the program, two of which were on the varsity program. Coach Panella was one of the few coaches in the OAL to keep a junior varsity program going each year. The JV team consisted of many young and talented sophomores and juniors and was coached by Dennis Young. The main pur- pose ot the junior varsity program was to prepare the players for the varsity level of play mentally and physically. The junior varsity program developed the varsity program into a winning program year after year. All-city players Kira Reinhart and Shanna Harris Q11 congratulate each other after a well played game.

Active sports clear minds An unusual number of enthusiastic stu- dents joined a wide variety of teams. Al- though the teachers strike delayed var- ious sport practices and schedules, many athletes still showed great promise for themselves and their team. Due to the strike and poor weather, many sport can- dids were cancelled. This page was planned to show athletes in action. 4 8 100 Sports in Action
