Coach Al Hult stated, As a team, whether at the varsity or sophomore level, we won every meet we should have. Strong swimmers came from the sophomore level. There were two Conference champions from this level. Freshman Peter Bonebrake took first with the 100-yard butterfly with a time of 1:00.01, but his best time was down to 58.78. Scott Lovell won the 100- yard backstroke.

When the event started, l had the feeling that I would get a low time. However, I got a quick start and swam at a steady rate, said Lovell. More swimmers were needed in competitions. Captain John Janowski stated, The varsity team did well as individuals, but the lack of swimmers really hurt the team. The sopho- mores, who had a good season, won a lot of close meets. What was lost in depth was compensated for by the strong individual efforts.

Wingfield takes 21st in state Consisting of two seniors and one junior, the varsity bowling team rolled its way to a 5-5 conference record and an overall of 5-6. The team, practicing two hours a day Monday through Thursday, was young and had a difficult time working together. The freshman-sophomore team finished second in the conference which should have helped the varsity team that was having a lackluster year, said Coach Mike Bortel. The varsity finally achieved near perfection with the last match of the season. Placing third at districts, the team did not advance to TR I447 l595 l525 56 l507 l442 i606 I454 E596 i598 L563 Bowling Opponent Reavis Eisenhower Richards Thomwood Shepard Reavis Eisenhower Richards Thomwood Shepard Thornton 4 2 l750 1507 5 7 56 i557 l655 42 I455 i565 1579 5 wms 6 losses Invltatlonals Eisenhower 7th of I6 Dlxon l5th of 25 l l l l I l l l ' l I Rock lsland 7th of I6 Thomridge 2lst of 52 A state, but Lucy Wingfield rolled a l099 to qualify as an individual. After sec- tionals and on our way to Peoria I didn't realize my accomplishment, said Wingfield. I felt good about qualifying and thought I was ready, but the competition was tough. Sometimes I let myself get upset and bowl bad, but I did my best, and I was hap- py to be 2lst in the state. All conference selections were Michele Lawrence, who was 9th with an aver- age of l59.4 and Karen Karczewski llth with a l58.4. The frosh-soph team end- ed its season with an 8-2 conference record.
