The football ream hod an 8 ond 3 season despite many injuries, ond their biggest supporters - rhe bond - accom- plished o remarkable feor of their own completing a hot trick by becoming rhe Group III Arlonric Coast Champions. Our sophomore yeor was also made memorable by everything happening outside of Sun Volley or rhe rime On rhe inrernorionol scene, Prince Charles ond Lody Di were married, ond El Solvo dor become o hot issue. On rhe narionol scene, rhe U S. sent o shuttle into space, rhe baseball players went on srrike, ev eryone ployed PocMon ond Rubies cubes were sold by rhe millions. Closer to home, the Rolling Stones sold our JFK Stadium during o tour no one will for get, ond coble television wos being in stalled in many homes in Aston, Brook hoven ond Porkside Endless Love ond “Stop Dragging My Heart Around topped rhe singles chorr, while Torro You ond Delia Donna reigned on rhe album chorr.
