Close relationships develop in small classes. We are united in our goals — striving for academic excellence, training for leadership roles, practicing for athletic success, and growing, separately and together, into the men and women of tomorrow. LOCKERS AT LAST Julia Harris and Ashley Howie have graduated from cubbyholes to lockers. Mrs. Pam Flowers. 4th grade homeroom teacher, demonstrates the art of working a combination lock.

E ACADEMICS Administration Thomas Hart Academy has been under Art Hawley’s leadership for six years now. He attended the University of South Carolina and received a B.S. degree in Biology and an M.Ed. in Educational Administration. He is presently taking a graduate course in curriculum development and design. Outside of school, Mr. Hawley enjoys saltwater fishing and is president of the Blue Water Fishing Club in Florence. Mr. Hawley implemented many changes this year. The school day was lengthened, and seven periods were scheduled to allow for flexibility in scheduling and a planning period for teachers. Another change was the addition of a Resource Program taught by Cindy Shirley. Thomas Hart also began running a bus service. This year also saw a change in the focus and evaluation of THA programs. Mr. Hawley spent an entire day with a class, taking tests, doing classwork, and eating lunch. He then held a meeting with the teachers to review, evaluate, and discuss teaching methods and techniques which worked well. This year’s administration had an additional member, Jack Hyman, the Director of Development. Mr. Hyman was responsible for all non-traditional fund-raising activities. These include an annual giving program, endowments, and a capital giving program. He was also in charge of all public relations, such as newspaper articles, communication with alumni, and the newsletter. Mrs.Carolyn Winburn began her first year as our school secretary. She stated that she enjoyed the relationship with students and teachers the most. Mrs. Winburn was enthusiastic about working at THA and we are happy to have her here.

Advisor Sonoco Retiree 11 Eleanor Roberson Beginners Betty Coward P.E. and Girl's coach Cindy Shirley Resource John Harllee High school math Faculty Cindy Baker First Grade Lee Hicks Second Grade Teachers at THA are energetic, compassionate, and humanistic in their approach to students. They like to share their ideas and resources. 30% of our faculty have graduate degrees. 50% have taken graduate courses since last spring. 19% have their masters. The average age of our faculty is in the mid to late thirties. Most list reading and gardening as their favorite hobbies. Many past teachers of THA have returned to teach again. Patti Gruene has returned to THA to teach high school English. Liz Kellum has returned to THA to teach the third grade (Before she taught first grade). Many teachers have changed positions. Carol Edwards taught 3rd grade last year and is presently teaching middle school science. Betty Coward is now teaching physical education and is coaching girls’ sports. She taught middle school science last year. Another change among the teachers this year included the formation of a Secret Pal Club. Organized by Mrs. Pam Flowers, members of the club drew the name of another teacher and did special things for them. Apples and candy Patti Greune High school English Rudy Young High school history and math and Boy's coach 12 Liz Kellam Pam Flowers Third Grade Middle school math and reading bars appeared on desks, and little gifts were left in teach- ers’ mailboxes. After school, teachers stayed busy with meetings including the SCISA fall conference in Orange- burg. Some Things Never Change In high school. Mrs. Coward was the captain of the all-tournament basketball team. Now she coaches girls’ sports and teaches P.E. In high school. Mrs. Edwards spent her summers in France. Now she teaches French.

Computers, and Business Librarian 13 Seniors Our years at Thomas Hart Academy have been very dear to us. We have seen many changes at this school and have survived them all. Our class is strong — we may be small in number, but we are big in spirit. Our size was only a slight obstacle in raising money for the Junior-Senior Prom, which was a great success. Our class has grown up together and we are proud to be a part of the Thomas Hart family. We are all anticipating graduation, but that will also be a sad experience for us. For thirteen years THA has been our home away from home. We’d like to thank our teachers and administration for their excellent guidance and we hope to make you proud of us as we strive to be all that we can be. Thank you for giving us some of the best years of our lives, THA. You will always hold a special place in our hearts. TOP MAN AND PROUD OF IT Mark Roseveare boasts his title of chief graduation marshal. He re- ceived this honor by maintaining the highest aca- demic average in his junior class. REFLECTIONS Kim Griggs pauses to reflect on the night ahead. The Junior-Senior Prom is one of the highlights of the year. ARE WE HAVING FUN YET? Ed Coker and Greg Brown appear ready to enjoy the results of a hard year’s work. Everyone really seemed to have a good time at the prom, much to the relief of the juniors. 14 HAPPINESS IS . SHOOTING A BUCK? Greg Brown seems to think so as he triumphantly sports his 'first deer. AN EN‘'DEER ING EXPERIENCE Craig Gandy shows off the buck he shot. This was also his first deer.

At the nature center, the class saw various animals in terrariums and aquariums. At Brookgreen, they saw wildlife and the world’s largest outdoor collection of American sculp- ture. Last year the seventh grade visited Columbia and Charleston, SC. In the capital city they saw historical documents in the Archives. They also visited the State Supreme Court, Governor’s Mansion, and Columbia College. The Carolina Correctional Institute was also visited by these THA students. Here they all had the breath-taking experience of sitting in the electric chair (unplugged, of course!) In April, they visited Charleston harbor on a harbor tour. Then the Joseph Mannigault House and the Citadel were next on the tour. This trip was highlighted by the Friday afternoon parade of ca- dets. A buggy tour of the Battery completed the trip. Last year the third grade visited Columbia. This field trip included a tour of the State House and the Gover- nor’s Mansion. The zoo trip has become an annual experience for the beginners. Guided by their teacher and some par- ents, the students tour the zoo and become acquainted with the various animals. The trip usually ends with a picnic lunch on the grounds. Also last year, the eleventh grade took a field trip to Charleston. During the trip, they visited Fort Sumter and claimed the boat trip across the harbor was the high- light of the trip because they fed the seagulls. The class also visited the Yorktown, one of the major aircraft carriers of World War II. Next stop was the old slave market, where the students bought handmade crafts. Finally, at the marketplace mall, they ate food from various countries and headed for home. The fifth grade class of 1985 experienced a world of science at Discovery Place in Charlotte, N.C. The Dis- covery Place is a museum in which the visitors are urged to touch the exhibits. Scheduled demonstrations throughout the day show concepts from fields of sci- ence such as nature, physics, and chemistry. Many exciting and extensive field trips are planned for 1985-1986, however our press date does not allow us to report on them until the following year. Egg Drop Last year Mrs. Coward took her fifth grade out of class and to the football field. Here she held her annual Egg Drop. To prepare for the Egg Drop, you need a raw egg, a container to put it in, and a parachute. This is not just fun and games. If your egg goes ‘'splat”, it's the end of that, for you make a zero as your grade. If it doesn’t break then congratulations are in order, for you've made a 100 as your grade! Paper Airplanes The halls were going wild the day of, and the day before the paper airplane contest. Everyone from the fourth through seventh grade was throwing paper airplanes down the halls! Mrs. Coward’s paper airplane contest took place on February 15, 1985. Everyone who had entered, lined up in one of the three categories: longest distance, time aloft, and best design. They were off. Each student took turns throwing their airplanes. The three winners were: for design, Robert Moore; time aloft, Dan Goff; longest distance, Chad Hulsey. 31 Computers Computers continued to play an important role in the life of the T.H. A. student. During the summer, a com- puter camp was held in our computer lab. Open to the general public, the camp taught the students the basics of computer operation and gave beginning instruction in typing technique. Classes were taught by Mrs. Pam Flowers. When school began, everyone at Thomas Hart, from Beginners to the 12th grade, got the opportunity to work with the computers. Microtype and computer lab classes were scheduled as well as free time to work on special projects. With the addition of Print Shop software, banners and notices took on a new look. No longer did memos consist of just type-written words. Artwork and fancy lettering helped to turn them into eye-catching notices. Thomas Hart will continue to keep pace with the computer age and prepare its students for the future. ACTIVITIES Beta Club The Senior Beta Club, a national organization, consists of students from grades 10-12 with an academic average of 88 or better. The Jr. Beta Club consists of students in grades 7-9 with the same average. This year both clubs were under the direction of Mrs. Linda Edwards. The Senior Beta Club undertook several projects. Canned goods were collected for the needy at Thanksgiving and the club collected toys to present to an orphanage at Christmas. The Jr. Beta Club collected Campbell soup labels which were turned in and exchanged for educational supplies. They decorated the lunchroom bulletin board and collected for the janitors' Christmas presents. The Senior Beta officers were as follows: Kim Griggs, Pres.; Mark Roseveare, V.P.; Jonathan Norwood, Sec.; and Kim Cromartie, Treas. The Jr. Beta officers were the following: Hal Johnson, Pres.; Trey Cox, V.P.; Carmen Edwards, Sec.; and Betsy Coward, T reas. oADEHT Student Council The Student Council is an organization designed to work for the students by making improvements. These improvements not only include projects to better the appearance of the school, but they also include projects to help make their school more enjoyable. This year, Student Council members elected to introduce several new ideas for the benefit of the students. The new projects included Costume day on Halloween and a pizza lunch service once a month. The Student Council also carried out their traditional school services, such as daily announcements in the morning, decorating the bulletin board, and sponsoring the Homecoming ceremonies. Student services annually sponsored by the Student Council are the Heart-a-gram booth and Senior Day. At the beginning of the 1985-’86 school year, Student Council officer elections were held. The resulting officers were: Kim Griggs, President; Mark Roseveare, Vice-president; Ed Coker, Secretary; and Rob Goff, Treasurer. Mrs. Mary Frances Black was the sponsor of the Student Council. 35 It was a typical day in the yearbook staff room, Jay was doing his math homework, Mark was cropping pictures, Betsy and Carmen were fighting over the electric typewriter, and Kim and Jennifer were writing copy. Meanwhile Mrs. Hawley was pulling her hair out and yelling over the noise, “We had a deadline — three days ago! Do you have those twenty-six pages completed? On no! We still have pictures to develop and copy to type!” Although the staff room can become quite hectic, the staff managed to accom- plish a great deal in such a small amount of time. This year was different in two ways. This year, the annual staff consisted of only six members and the advisor. None of the members had previous experience on the yearbook staff, but they proved to be fast learn- ers. Also, this year, the annual deadlines were shorter and more work had to be done in less time. Everyone managed to have a good time as well as complete their assignments! The staff members were: Kim Griggs — Editor, Mark Roseveare — Busi- ness Manager, Layout and copy staff — Betsy Cow- ard, Carmen Edwards, Jennifer Curtis, and Jay Hy- man. Mandy Hawley was the advisor. Hornet Staff SOUTHERN STYLE the 1985 staff has it! Pictured are: Betsy Coward. Mark Roseveare. Mrs. Hawley. Kim Griggs. Carmen Edwards. Jay Hyman, and Jennifer Curtis. SITTING DOWN ON THE JOB Not hardly! Mark may be sitting, but he's not shirking his duties. Here he is shown recording ads in his ledger. STAFF GATHERING Hornet staff members collect in the gym for a sales meeting. IT'S A TOUGH TASK, BUT SOMEONE'S GOT TO DO IT! Jay is busily cropping photos. YOU'RE KIDDING. RIGHT? Jennifer finds it funny when she's asked to write copy. IT'S IN HERE SOMEWHERE Kim is going through the files in search of a photo. 36 P.T.O. Booster Club PTO BOOSTER CLUB The Thomas Hart Academy Parent-Teacher Organization and the Booster Club are two of the most important organizations at the school. Although they each have separate goals and projects, their members are constantly working together to benefit the school. The PTO sponsored the First Bridge-Canasta party and fashion show this year and carried out the Second Annual Country Living Show. They also have meetings that involve the parents, teachers, coaches, and club presidents. The Booster Club sponsors a hot dog lunch every Wednesday for the THA students and is responsible for the concession stand and ticket booth during the football and basketball games. They also sponsored a wide-screen T.V. raffle for the Country Living Show. Their major project was the selling of season tickets by the Miss and Jr. Miss Hornet contestants. Both Miss Hornet contests were carried out under the supervision of the Booster Club. The students and staff of Thomas Hart Academy are grateful to the PTO and Booster Club for their contribution to the betterment of our school. PTO officers: Pres. — Becky McWatty, Vice-Pres. — Curry Daw- kins. Sec. — Debbie Hyman. Treas. — Kathy Blackwell Booster Club officers: Pres. — Charles Hall. Vice-Pres. — Greta Nor- wood. Sec. — Debbie Hyman. Treas. — Anne Tyner 37 Miss Hornet Each year the Booster Club sponsors the Miss Hornet contest in which girls from the school compete in selling season tickets. The girl who sells the most tickets, raising the largest sum of money for athletic purposes, is therefore crowned Miss Hornet. This year, Nancy Byrd, a freshman, was crowned Miss Hornet on October 30, 1985, during the halftime of the J.V. football game against Lord Berkley. Nancy is the daughter of Darrel and Janice Byrd. Her hobbies include watching television and playing volleyball, basketball, football, and baseball. She also enjoys playing the piano and babysitting. She is an active member of her church choir at Elim Methodist Church. Presently she is writing a book titled “My Adventures in New York. Nancy has attended Thomas Hart Academy since 7th grade. When asked how she felt about winning the title of Miss Hornet, Nancy replied, “I never thought I would ever win a contest of this kind. It feels good being a member of the royal family.” 1st runner-up Kim Cromartie escorted 2nd runner-up: Jennifer Camp- by Greg Brown bell escorted by Ed Coker ‘ '£2 Jr. Miss Hornet This was the second yekr at T.H.A. that we had a Jr. Miss Hornet. The Jr. Miss Hornet is a girl in grades 6-8 who sells the most booster club tickets. The tickets help raise money for the booster club. Having a Jr. Miss Hornet gives girls a chance to become a “Miss Hornet twice. Mary Elizabeth Black was crowned Jr. Miss Hornet on October 30, 1985, during halftime of the J.V. football game against Lord Berkley. She was escorted by Scott Sloan. Mary Elizabeth, a 7th grader, is the daughter of Winky Mary Frances Black. Mary Elizabeth is a member of the J.V. cheerleading squad and a member of the J.V. basketball team. She enjoys tennis, cheerleading, basketball, skating, drawing. Her favorite subject is literature. Mary Elizabeth is a member of the M.Y.F. at St. Luke Methodist Church. “It was a big shock,” was her comment on winning the title. •eH Mock Miss Hornet The J.V. Cheerleaders were in charge of the “Mock Miss Hornet.” Second Runner up was Mi- chelle (Michael) Henderson. First Runner up was Judy (Jody) Hayes. Roberta (Rob) Goff was crowned the “Mock Miss Hornet.” Following his victory procession, he was given the traditional bag of candy. This was another successful effort by the J.V. Cheerleaders to arouse enthusiasm in the school. 42 1. 7th grade representative — Mary Elizabeth Black with escort Scott Slone. 2.

The One And Only — Homecoming Queen There wouldn’t have been any other choice, even if the Senior class had contained twenty girls instead of just one. Kim Griggs would have been sure to win the title of Homecoming Queen. Not only does she have the beauty and popularity which typify this title, but she also has the intelligence, personality, and school spirit which make Kim a role model. Kim is the daughter of Wilson and Joyce Griggs. She attends Swift Creek Baptist Church and is involved in her church youth group. During eleven years at Thomas Hart, Kim has been involved in many activities. She has played volleyball for 6 years and was chosen as a member of the SCISA All Tournament team. Kim has participated in two school plays and was crowned Miss Hornet as a ninth grader. This year Kim is the yearbook editor, president of the Senior class. Senior Beta Club, and Student Council. Congratulations, Kim! You’re the one and only. 1986 Homecoming Queen Kim Griggs with escort Tripp Jeffords. Kim being crowned by 1985 Homecoming Queen Beth Outlaw. As president of the student council, Kim helps oversee the alumni reception. Janie Moore — sponsor for senior player Ed Coker. 43 Welcome Alumni On January 17, 1986, the Student Council spon- sored an alumni reception after the homecoming game. Invitations were mailed weeks before inviting alumni to attend the game, reception, and a dance held afterwards. The alumni were encouraged to sign in as they arrived. Most alumni at the reception were recent graduates, however, there were a few earlier graduates. The gathering was a great success, and many thanks went out to the members of the Student Council and Mrs. Black, their sponsor. 44 Also after the homecoming game, a dance was held in the gym. The dance, sponsored by the Junior Class, was an effort to raise money for the Junior Senior Prom. A concession stand helped to add to the total. Many T.H.A. students, alumni, and students from other schools had an enjoyable time at the dance and anxiously awaited the next one. Homecoming Dance 45 Prom Committee This year the Junior Class has worked hard selling jackets, T-shirts, spirit ribbons,and cakes. Every week at school they had a bake sale to raise money to have a great Junior Senior Prom. The trip to Charlotte to pre- view bands for the prom was an exciting time for every- one in the class. The dances sponsored by the Junior class were always a great success. The Junior class would like to thank their sponsor, Coach Young, their parents, and the sophomore class for their great sup- port. 46 (The junior (Close (Of (Clintnu Hurt Anibenty Keenest Hjc Honor (Of Hour Presence At (Dje Junior-Mentor Prom (On April (Ehieuty-£ixth .Nineteen Hunbreb Aub i itu-jFilie At 8 p.m. Preetluoob (Country Club 47 Crafts Truck S.C. Arts Commission The South Carolina Arts Commission Crafts Truck was at T.H.A. during March, 1985. T.H.A. students, scout troops, and the general public were able to take advantage of the free instructions and materials which the truck provided. Weaving and pottery were two of the crafts taught. The Crafts Truck is a specially equipped trailer which travels around the state. During the first two weeks, the truck featured a professional weaver. Demonstrations were held, and participants were able to construct and work on a cardboard loom. Many were also able to work with a floor loom. The second two weeks featured a professional potter. During the pottery session, students were taught the basics of hand built pottery, the use of the kick wheel, and glazing and firing. The artists at the truck were kept busy as students, parents, and others took the opportunity to learn a new skill and use their creativity. Field Day Every year in May, students and teachers take to the field for a day of fun and games. The events include the pie eating contest, balloon throw, tug-of- war, sack race, three-legged race, wheelbarrel race, obstacle course, bat spin, and a team relay. This is followed by a picnic lunch and a softball game between the high school students and the Seniors and faculty. Weeks before the games, teachers are assigned teams and colors. Competition is always intense with strategy sessions and practices. Field Day is organized and directed by the Student Council. Art classes have been busy this year polishing their talents, having exhibits at school, and entering contests. In October, twenty-seven entries were sent to the S.C. State Fair Student Art Show. Hester Kelly, a fourth grader, won an honorable mention for her po- tato print picture. Also in October, nine entries were taken to the S.C. Indepen- dent School Association Student Art Show in Orangeburg. This time THA students brought home two awards. Rhonda Vincent, a sixth grader, won 1st place in the 6-8 grade division for her fish print. Angie Steen, a seventh grader, won an honorable mention in the same category for her pencil sketch. In November, Sonoco Pro- ducts Co. held a Christmas art contest for their employees’ families. Elizabeth McKorell, a fifth grader, won third place and received a $50 savings bond. Art classes are taught by Mrs. Mandy Hawley. so Reading: It Really Is Fun! Reading plays an important role in the life of a THA student, so it stands to reason that a book fair would be very popular. Each year the school holds a book fair to provide the students with access to a variety of inexpensive books. Students are able to browse and choose from the display set up in the library. Besides the benefit the students receive from the literature, the school and teachers also benefit. At the end of the fair, the school receives 30% of the profits in cash, and teachers receive 20% of the profits in free books for their classroom libraries. Book reports are more fun at THA. Students can act out scenes from their books, create commercials, design new book jackets, and draw posters. Students and teachers both prove that reading is not only important, but it can also be very entertaining. What’s In Backgammon is a favorite game among the students. Here the sixth grade is observing an interesting game between Chad and Stephen. Sweatsuits were popular at THA this year. Betsy, Carmen, Janie, and Jennifer sport their sweats between classes. Anything goes in the way of shoes. Popular tennis shoes for 1986 included Reeboks and Air Jordans. Other favorites were leather flats, oxfords with socks, cowboy boots, and docksiders. 52 Blue jean jackets were a common sight with all grades throughout the 1985-'86 school year. Mike. Kim. Harold. Brandis, and Deanne model the different styles worn at school. Moi. J’ai une Swatch! Swatch watches were very popular at THA. Here are swatches belonging to eight different girls. Different strokes for different folks. Greg Brown. Kim Cromartie. and Kim Griggs are decked out in camouflage, while Mark wears his winter tennis togs. Hairstyles in 1986 ranged from short and sassy to long and lively. Permanents were in as well as straight hair. Stacy. Mrs. Flowers. Mike. Rodney. Ashley, and Jason gather to display the variation of hairstyles. 53 Chess Club January 1986 marked the organization of the Chess Club. The idea of the Chess Club arose from the large- scale interest in the game of chess which has sprung up this year. Members of the Chess Club range from the 6th grade to the 12th grade. The 25 members are divided into three levels of experience — beginners, intermediate, and advanced. Rankings will be based on a point system, and a tournament will be held at the end of the year to determine champions for each level and a grand champion for the whole club. The Chess Club is sponsored by Rudy Young. Officers are: Greg Brown, President; Mark Roseveare, Vice-president: and Rob Goff, Secretary. Other members are: Ed Coker, Craig Gandy, Jonathan Norwood, David Dixon, Hal Johnson, Harold King, Jay Hyman, Dubby Freeman, Stacy Campbell. Mike Henderson, Mike Matthews. Kevin Morris, Michael New, Ray Morrow. Mike Popelass, Brian Baker. Scott Slone. Kenneth Stewart, Will Black, Stephen Byrd, and Mitch Ingram. 54 This year, the THA Student Council sponsored “Costume Day” on Halloween. Participation was encouraged through daily announcements, and the first “Costume Day” was a great success. Nearly every student and teacher took part. The halls were filled with witches, vampires, clowns, and other unusual- looking people. The intention of “Costume Day” was to promote school spirit and give everyone a chance to dress silly and have fun. October 31 was one day when the THA students and faculty let their spirits shine! 56 Girls And Boys Tennis The 1985 girls Tennis team consisted of 1 sophomore, 4 eighth graders, 4 seventh graders, and 6 sixth graders. This year, the girls had a very successful season. They won 7 matches and lost 3. At the awards banquet, Shannon Watkins received the Players Choice award and Stephanie Blackwell received the Coach’s award. The team consisted of Shannon Watkins, Lacie Blackman, Mitzi Lane, Stephanie Blackwell, Jennifer Dawkins, Carmen Edwards, Betsy Coward, Lizabeth Bannister, Stacy Campbell, Mary Black, Erika Chaplin, Jamie Dawkins, April Odom, Andria Brodhun, and Beth McWatty. The Thomas E. Hart Academy 1985 boys’ tennis team claimed the runner-up trophy in the SCISAA Class A State tennis tournament. Despite finishing the season with a 6-7 record, the Hornets defeated Carolina Academy of Lake City twice to win the regional crown. In the state championship, Thomas Hart dropped a close match to Cambridge Academy of Greenwood. The match was held at the Columbia Tennis Center near the University of South Carolina. Ed Coker and Mark Roseveare, the team’s number one and two seeded players, respectively, carried the team all season. In fact, Coker and Roseveare won their matches in the state finals. At the athletic awards banquet, Mark was chosen for the Coach's award and Ed won the Players’ Choice award. Tennis team members are: Ed Coker, Mark Roseveare, Clark Brooking, Greg Winburn, Scott Haenni, Pat Cheely, Ricky Renck, and Brian Baker. The Big Game The athletic section would not be com- plete if we did not mention the intense rivalry which occurs each year between the Caroli- na and Clemson supporters of THA. The week before the big game, the Jr. class starts the rivalry with a chain link contest. Students and teachers support their favorite team by purchasing paper links that are ad- ded to two chains which stretch down the hallway. At the end of the week, the final tally was Carolina — 1389 and Clemson — 1180. On Friday, Nov. 22, all Clemson sup- porters wore orange and purple, while the Carolina fans were decked out in garnet and black. Although Carolina won the chain link con- test, they did not fare as well on Saturday. Clemson won the grudge match by a score of 24-17. 59 Elementary P.E. This year saw a change in Elementary P.E. Besides having a new teacher (Coach Betty Coward), there was also a new program. Coach Coward empha- sized physical fitness through calisthenics, folk dancing, tumbling, and move- ment skills. She also taught skills that would be used in basketball, volleyball, and tennis. Other P.E. activities include running obstacle courses, playing soccer, running laps, and participating in organized team sports. When the weather was nice, P.E. was moved outside. 60 Cheerleaders The J.V. Cheerleaders continued to arouse the enthusiasm of the school again this year. The Cheerleaders kept the spirit of the J.V. football team alive. During basketball season, the cheerleaders had to do their cheering from the stands; most of them were on the girls' basketball team. The squad consisted of Carmen Edwards, Stacy Campbell, Betsy Coward, Jennifer Campbell, Mary Black, and Jamie Dawkins. Stacy and Carmen served as team captains. Debbie Dawkins acted as sponsor again this year. The J.V. Cheerleaders appreciate all of the time and effort Mrs. Dawkins put into the squad. 61 1985 J.V. HORNETS (L to R) Standing — Asst. Coach, Linwood Hayes, David Dixon, Rob Goff, Asst. Coach, Jonathan Norwood, Hal John- son, Kevin Morris, Coach, Rudy Young. Kneeling — Brian Baker, Mike Matthews, Mike Henderson, Jody Hayes, Jay Hyman, Michael New. Sitting — Mgr., Mike Pope- lars, Dubby Freeman, Chad Hul- sey, Ray Morrow, Kenneth Stew- art, Mgr., Mitch Ingram. 62 Football 1985 ! This year Thomas Hart again sponsored a junior varsity football team. This season opened sporting a new coach, Rudy Young, and a new offense, presenting a new look for THA football. The team consisted of young players who had never played first string before, but they proved to be dedicated young men who worked hard to reach their goals. The season ended with Thomas Hart bearing a record of three wins and four losses. Even though they lost more games than they won, they accomplished a great deal because they overcame adversity. They were extremely proud of the Miss Hornet game; they defeated Lord Berkely with a score of 34-6. This win on the Kelly field definitely showed all the THA J.V. football fans how much the team had progressed since the beginning of the season. Volleyball 64 This year, the Thomas Hart Academy Lady Hornets consisted of twelve girls, only three having previously experienced competitive volleyball. The three returning players were Senior — Kim Griggs, Junior — Kim Cromartie, and Freshman — Nancy Byrd. These three girls also tri-captained the team. Other team members were Jennifer Campbell, Jennifer Curtis, Betsy Coward, Erika Chaplin, Beth McWatty, Kim Young, Carmen Cromartie, Anna Plunkett, and Sharon Johnson. The team was basically inexperienced, but with an understanding coach, Mrs. Coward, the expert advice of Mrs. Tricia Pitts, and a lot of effort, they finally learned what it takes to win — Teamwork! All of the sweat and tears brought results in the State Volleyball Tournament, when the team won their first match of the season. Also at the tournament, Thomas Hart was honored to have two players named to the SCISA Class A All-Tournament Team — Kim Griggs and Kim Cromartie. Comparing the beginning of the 1985 volleyball season and the closing, the Lady Hornets played just like a different team. They had concentrated their efforts on playing their best — and it paid off — with a 15-8, 14-16, 15-6 victory over the Low Country Tigers. The girls hated losing games, but still admitted that the season was definitely an enjoyable one. 65 COACH'S AWARD FOOTBALL Chip Brodhun GIRLS TENNIS Stephanie Blackwell BOYS TENNIS Mark Roseveare BASEBALL Tracy Lee J.V.

Though the team was very young and inexperienced, Coach Young brought new levels of enjoyment to the game and got the team to hustle and give its best all year long. Veterans Mark Roseveare, a senior; and Jonathon Norwood, a junior; (both team-captains) were joined on the team by Greg Brown, a senior; Trey Lane, a junior; Kim Cromartie, a junior; Hal Johnson, a freshman; Rob Goff, a freshman; and Jody Hayes, a freshman. J.V. Girls Basketball 68 Thomas Hart had a J.V. girl’s basketball team this year. Returning from previous years were five players. Seven first-year players were added to the team. This was Coach Betty Coward's first year as girl’s basketball coach. She was quoted as say- ing, These twelve girls have been a joy to work with. All of us have had fun and learned a lot about basketball.” Of the starting five, each girl had the opportuni- ty to act as team captain. Captains were rotated each game. The captain’s responsibilities includ- ed signaling time-outs, relaying information to ref- erees, and setting an example for her fellow team members. A significant change in girl’s basketball this year was the use of a smaller basketball. An official women’s size basketball was used by all teams participating in SCISA athletics. Being both lighter and only twenty-nine inches in circumference, the girl’s hands were able to control the ball better and slam-dunks were now possible. This year we had a very young team, but they gained valuable experience and greatly improved each and every day. Players described the practices as “grueling”. Suicides and other exercises built stamina, and coordination was enhanced through passing and shooting drills. J.V. Boys Basketball — Sports At T.H.A. u I Elementary Activities 1.
