Cross Country Under the coaching of Mr. Furrer, new to Cross- Country, and a handful of prospects, Cross-Country looked dim. With help and advice, however, Coach Furrer worked and molded the prospects into a team. Seniors Jim Loyet and Kevin Slattery were the captains of the team. The team included juniors Tony Ebert, Dave Kelly, Mark Borzillo, and Tom Turner, and others. The team engaged in the CAC meet hoping to defend its title. With five rtmners finishing in the top 16 it looked like an apparent victory. Contrary to this though, JFK nipped the Griffins by five points. A team deserving mention was the freshman team which was undefeated. The leading runners were Dave Smid, Glen Boresi, and Dave Pijut. A varsity member deserving mention is jim Loyet who was so dedicated, he trained twice a day during the season and ran close to 500 miles over the summer, and his work paid off as he finished second in the CAC meet, just being edged by another opponent. , A , .MM EH E f .25 ,K ee' f we 'Q J f rife Q 2 f sf. a'S3r1 5r2f at via s ? f if We fjf rnifhff G aaffiw 2lf555,f.!3?fi? if ae iff 2 22 693535 Evers 1 - :fl 5 , .

Cagers Finish 11-12 Even though the Griffins ended with a ll-12 record, the team did pass a milestone: Coach Boeckman's 100th victory at Vianney. The Griffins won the consolation championship of the Vianney Invitational. The team's highlight was their win over the Aquinas Falcons 66-65 in overtime. Other important wins were over Mercy and two over arch rival DuBourg. The final game against the Cavaliers ended in a win. The parents of the seniors were honored with a corsage, and the players received a color print of the team. 62 nra
