iVcvcr tuckered out 1987-88 rhe 1987-88 school year started out the same way as any other. Kids griping at one another about home- work, tests, and getting up at seven o’clock in the morning. New teachers walking quietly through the hall checking out their new pupils and the veteran teachers grumbling that the kids never changed. Despite everything students and teachers kept their chins up and marched through the school year valiantly and NEVER TUCKERED OUT!

Ekb l Viat Ei e ujoM i TaflcUta Abou fyou were to stop and ask some students what kind of year Tucker County had in sports, you would get tales of an exceptional year with major letdowns. After all, it's not every year we send a team to Charleston to compete in the Class AA Football Championship, although the team had gone two years in a row and this year fell short of being champs by losing to top rated Winfield. And it's not often you’ll find a girls basketball team that finishes 18-6 after winning their sectional and finishing with a heart breaking loss in Regionals to Berkley Springs. Only in Tucker County does a boy spend every spare moment trying to rebuild his basketball skills to help the team get to states after being shot in the side in a hunting accident last season as Eric Poling did. And how about the Girls Volley- ball Team? Although young and inexperienced, they had a terrific season. But oh, when students remember Tucker Sports, Jed Drenning’s name is sure to be mentioned. Jed was the quarterback for the Mt. Lions and earned the high honor of being named the best football player in the state of West Virgin- ia by claiming the Kennedy Award. To many, the sports are what make our school so proud and even though we have come up on the short end of the stick, we have NEVER TUCKERED OUT! A first for Tucker County High. Junior Tammy Long claimed a state champ title at the state track meet in Charleston in the 800 meter run. Charleston was like a second home to TCH Athletes. 6 Sports Divider
