Conference 4th saves season rough start but a strong finish charac- terized the boys gym- nastics season. With only two seasonal wins, the team came on strong to place 4th in con- ference and 4th in regionals and had two men advance to sectionals. Plagued by ineligibilities and inexperience, the varsity team had trouble scoring points in the earlier part of the season. However, by season end they broke 100 points against Lin- coln-Way, which was the first time they scored over 100 in two seasons. At regionals they scored 10 3.4 points to help them place 4th at regionals. I knew we could score high, but I didn't expect to break 100 twice, Top: Henry Spight scored 5th in all- around at conference. Middle: Dave Marcum was one ot the many new talents on the team.

At conference they placed 4th with 98.7 points. At re- gionals Dion Hunter placed 7th on floor exercise and Ken Bermingham was 7th on over- all which helped advance these two men to sectionals where Hunter and Berming- ham placed 19th and 21st place respectively. Ken and Dion deserved to compete at regionals. They were the team leaders throughout the year, stated Junior Fiandy Lich- nerowicz. The sophomore team went 2-10 with a 3rd place confer- ence finish. The freshmen had a good showing at the Hins- dale Central invitational by placing 4th.
