Top: FINDING OUT HOW FAR they could go, TAKING IT T0 THE TOP Losing only to the top three teams in the county, the Varsity soccer team eyed a position in the tournament. Coach Rhyne said that their chances were pretty good if they did not slack off against their opponents in the final games. The spring break held the team in expectation. The position of the team surprised the members. Said Coach Rhyne, I feel we played pretty good ball and we didn't expect to go that far. Some of the highlights of the season include outstanding performances by high scoring Winn Pennington and Robbie Davis who played offensive and defensive in the midfield. The team had a good, consistent goalie, David Are, and let few get by but the errors never cost the team the game. The aggressiveness of the team pushed them into a position that saw the tournament and possible championship on the horizon. Although the season was not the best, Coach Rhyne said of the season, lt was up and down but we seemed to play better against the good teams.

5 Left: THE EXCITEMENT OF THE GAME was a major factor in determining the routine of success taken by the Jackets. The pregame anxiousness has paid off during the season in almost every game, esp ecially against Pebblebrook. Devld Are and Wlnn Pennington were two fantastic players this season. Mlddle: HAVING TO WIN THE LAST THREE games of the season while watching Wheeler and Walton, the Jackets began their fight to the top. Coach Rhyne described Jeff Jackson as belng a main defensive player next year. Below: TALENTED ADAM PETTY will be counted on next year for the control ol the mldfleld. The strength of the team this year seemed to come from the midfleld and thirty plus goals were a symbol of its strength.
