The experience Coach Rudisi11's team possessed accounted for much of their success, and success was dominant throughout the season. The Running Raiders took the Southwestern Conference for the fourth time in seven years, and then advanced to the sectionals where South Point finished ninth out of twenty-two teams. The top runners were the heartbeat of the excellent season. Pat Sadler was voted Player of the Yearl' by the conference coaches. Tim McAndrew, Steve Ray, Wayne Berry, and Pat Sadler made All-Conference. The factor that brought it all together was Coach Rod Rudisill. His fine coaching and encouragement has again made South Point respected in another sport. His dedication was recognized when he was voted the 1981 Coach of the Year in Cross Country. Some of the newer members showed promise 138 5 F , , , Above-The South Point squad waits for the start. Above Left-Chow Time! for the future.
