Talented team takes Regionals Reaching the Sectional li- nal game, the varsity volley- ball team posted its best season ever. lt began with difficulties ranging from lack of facili- ties to injuries occurring throughout the season, said Coach Kim Hennan. However, as a team we pulled together, learned from our mistakes, and mentally pushed ourselves to become one of the finest area teams. They pulled together at the right time. After two losses to flomewood-Floss- moor ended their hopes for a conference title and gave them a share of second place with Thomwood, the girls set their sights on re- gionals. victories over Seton and Thomwood gave the girls a regional title and enabled them to move on to section- als where they defeated 1 Volleyball TF North I5-8,l5-I0 sneparcl I5-ILI5-5 Homewood- , if Flossmoor 7-l5,l2-I5 g W ' Thornton l5-8.l5-0 N A l an Thomwood I5-l0,l5-ll Eisenhower I5-5.l5-2 Bloom l5-4,l5-l Bloom Trail l5-8,l5-5 Rich East l5-2,15-6 Homewood- Flossmoor I2-l5,l5-9.4-I5 I Thomton 15-2,15-5 g 5, S, A Q , 'rhomwoocl 5-ls,l:5-ls Eisenhower l5-l0,l5-7 Bloom I5-5,15-9 Bloom Trail I5-l0,l5-5 I2 wins, 5 losses Invltationals Hillcrest 4th Tinley Park 2nd 3?

Kickers post best season Winning seven out of the last eight games, the soccer team kicked its way to a second place conference finish. I thought that the second half of the season we really wanted to win, and it showed in our perfor- mance. Our strong finish gave us the confidence to go into the Regionals, stat- ed Joe Fameti. The All-Conference play- ers including Fameti were Chris Martire, Berto Zam- brano, Femando Carbajal, Gus Esquivel, and Rigo Zambrano. The honorable mention players were Steve Freese and Kevin Mysz- kiewicz. Rigo Zambrano was also named as All- Sectional player. The season was good. lt was our best sea- son since l have been here at Thomridge, but I still think that we could have gone a little bit farther in Above: JV Soccer: Front Row: Dan Larson, Scott Kulig, Ed Dziadon, Jesus Villegas, Victor Mendoza, Andre Battise: Row 2: Juan Vala- dez.

One of the hottest scoring players was Kevin Myszkiewicz, who led the team with 14 goals. Coach Carlos Medrano was pleased with the sec- ond place tinish in the Thornridge Invitational. Our last half of the season showed that the hard work and the togethemess of the team showed great promise for the future of the play- offs, he said. The team beat Thomwood in the Se- mifinals CZ5-1l and then lost to Marist Q1-Gl. The junior varsity team ended with a record of 11-5- 1, the best record ever for the team, and came in sec- ond place in the Popular Marian Sophomore Soccer Toumament. ku 3, ,i 3 XV ,3 Coach Dave Baron, Francisco Val- lejo, Dan Ducat, Greg De Laureus, Rob Rusiniak, Guy Louis-Jean, Coach Jarrod Davis.
