T. R. Gives Hackett the Cold Shoulder On October 23, 1981, at the Catholic Athletic Association, the Three Rivers Varsity Football team played Hackett in the final game of their season. This game would prove to be the highlight of the T.R.H.S. season. That night there were two inches of new fallen snow, but even snow did not prove to be a deterrent to a Wildcat victory. Although it was an unexpectedly cold game for the spectators, the excitement of the game proved worthwhile. Three Rivers was down 0-6 when Mike Fosdick caught a 14 yard touchdown pass thrown by Jeff Zerfas. With the score tied, Mike Hunt kicked for the extra point, which put T.R. ahead by one point. But Hackett didn ' t give up, they began to move the ball closer towards the T.R. goal post. With only 20 seconds left in the game, Steve Boyer intercepted a Hackett pass at the Three Rivers five yard line. This spectacular display of skill clinched a 7-6 victory for T.R. Hackett had been undefeated and Three Rivers was the only team to beat them in their regular season. There has always been a lot of competition between T.R. and Hackett. But this year T.R. had more than competitiveness, they had determination. 14 Student Life

Predominately Preppy ' Save an Alligator . . . Eat a Preppy ' The 1981-82 school year brought a wide variety of looks to T.R. Styles ranged from ruffled lacy blouses, to commando military clothing, but preppiness was definite. Almost every student had some article of clothing that could be considered preppy, whether they liked it or not. Preppiness made its presence known in the form of Shetland sweaters, oxfords, khakis, monograms, turtlenecks, French braids, kilts, ribbons and bows, rain slickers, argyle socks, pink and green, penny loafers, topsiders, rubber uglies, and anything with an Izod alligator. Students at Three Rivers began to dress up more this year. They wore tailored suits, tweed blazers, pleated dress pants. feminine blouses, pumps, sweater d resses, angora sweaters, and believe it or not, some guys even wore ties. The western look is still around in the form of cowboy boots, hats, and belts. It also includes prairie skirts, Indian moccasins, and feather jewelry. Some of the latest styles for this year are knickers, harem pants, mini skirts, leaf jewelry, military garb, Ralph Lauren polos; headbands, punk, dangle earrings, sailor tops, and gold and silver everything. Along with all of these new styles, there were the old favorites of blue jeans, sweatshirts, T-shirts, tennis shoes, and those warm and dry hiking boots.
