Coach Jeffries graplers really lowered the boom this year. Vines wrestlers had an ll win, l loss and 1 tie record which was the very best ever in Vines wres- tling history. All the team was very proud of this record. Wres- tling sort of came alive in 1980. The whole team plus a few more set out to break a human pyramid record on Purple Pride day. The guys did a great job. They were great hams for pictures too! In some meets Vines wasjoined with Williams and Clark to compete against larger schools. The Viking wrestlers had a so called Varsity level for the more experienced and more competitive wrestlers. Whether varsity or not the team was excellent. They even com- peted against seniors and beat a few of them. At one meet, Vines VS. Richardson. Vines had 41 first places, and 3 third places. Other scores are as follows, Vines vs Skyline 52-6. Sunset tourny 15 of 21, Madison dual meet 30 of 38, Berkner dual meet 32-32. Jes- uit dual meet 56-6, Trinity meet 62-6, Bishop Lynch meet 39-27. FRS Q i island SL 3

Kurt Williams was second with an average of 333. The team consisted of thirteen sophomore players and six freshmen. Although the Viking Baseball score record wasn't anything to speak of. the boys gave it a great try. They worked really hard and to actually see the game was a dif- ferent story from what the scores did say. The Vines Baseball team played Plano Senior High School Junior Varsity and put up a big fight. They only lost by one point. Steve Adel' walclres, waits, and wonders when the ball is going ro come.
