A lf anyone had any doubts about the 1985 Girls Track State Cham- pions, they were dispelied by the 1986 South Side Track Team. These awesome champions ran, jumped, and shot-putted their way to an undefeated season, winning all eleven of their meets. Among these were the Northrop invitational, the SAC meet, Sec- tionals, Regionals, and, of course, State. Leading this outstanding team were, according to coach Roberta Widmann-Faust, three of the most talented women athletes to graduate from South. Trudi Tiffany McBride and Lavette Harris take the last few strides on their way to a one- two finishjphoto by Duong McCloud, DeDe Nathan, and Cori Kelso. Trudy and DeDe attained All-American status by running the 1600-meter relay at State as freshmen and sophomores. DeDe retained this status by winning the 100-meter hurtles as a senior and the 300-meter hurtles as a junior and senior at the state level. Commented Coach Widmann- Foust, What can a coach say about a team that turns in a per- fect season? ... lt has been a just reward to have had the pleasure and privilege of coaching these young women. Coach Widmann-Faust is no slouch, either. She has been Indi- ana Coach ofthe Year for several years straight and was nominated for National Coach of the Year twice. South Side has a good rea- son for true pride in its Girls Track team. - Steve Gersos

South Side showed great ability in the track meets, winning individ- ual events consistently. However, they did not have enough people to be in all of the events. We had plenty of talent, but we had people doing three and even four events and wearing themselves out, stated Coach Baughman.
