Tiger teams take usual turn-around One of many areas of Tokay's short road toward experience, 1982 sports con- tinued Tokay's tradition of fluctuating rank and spirit. Tigers ranked inferior in comparison to the accom- plishments of the Alma Mater's student body ten years ago. This unique year of 1982 delivered to Tokay its share of uninvolved, non- spirited students. Tokay lived its history with spirit in 1973, determination in 1974, vic- tories over Lodi High in 1975, teamwork in 1978, individual achievements in 1979, and a rest in 1981-82. Mediocrity became Tokay's new stereotype, though activities such as waterpolo ranked high for its fourth season. Attendance at games was low, but one specific basketball com- petition delivered life and spirit to the unusually high number of spectators. This Lodi vs. Tokay basketball game ended with a hope- shattering, spirit-exploding 43-41, Tokay losing in over- time to Lodi's final basket in the last second. For those who watched the Tiger team give it all they had, the night developed in- to the symbol of 1982 Tiger sports--a fight drowned in blood, sweat, tears, and cheers for the few who at- tempted to rescue Tigers from their hopefully short rest from spirit. 42
