Gymnasts play several roles The 1979-80 Girls' Gymnastics Team, was small in number, but they were ready to compete against the best. Although they only won two out of twelve meets, they were still enthusiastic and competitive. Each girl had her specialty in the events, however, due to the small size of the team the girls had to compete all-around. Unfortunatly, Exibiting perfect balance on the beam is Ia- nice Dowdell. ,.-- I at one meet they did not have a chance to compete since the judges failed to appear. Coach Loomis' advice helped a great deal by preparing the girls to compete. The season this year can be looked on as a building year. The majority of the team will return next year for another season of hard work and practice. Marla McLure, Lisa Hussar, Sue Leonard, Orchid Hill, Crystal Ervin, Ianice Dowdell, and Shervon Hill gave their all, which is the most any person can give. Together these girls have shared victory and defeat. But, most importantly, they made a team. 1979 Girls' Gymnastics 56.45 Harding 67.50 56.05 Hubbard 64.50 55.2 JFK 54.45 44.95 Struthers 64.3 9.05 Girard 68.25 51.50 Mineral Ridge 67.10 55.94 Liberty 59.56 60.6 Canfield 75.45 51.10 Lakeview 51.20 47.35 Fitch 79.6 67.9 Villa Maria 57.7 58.80 Harding 70.75 120!Gymnastics xx X . .

Closing the decade with style For the third year, over 9,000 fans gathered at Mollenkopf Stadium to view the third afternoon conflict be- tween Reserve and Harding. The first two games seemed a jinx for the Raiders as they lost 7-6 and 13-7. But the tables turned when the Raiders closed the '79 season with 16-7 win. The Raiders first 6 points lit the score board after several well ex- ecuted plays. All of the offense The scoreboard tells it all. 1979 Varsity Football WWR 38 Akron East 0 22 Parma Padua 23 19 Cambell 7 14 Mooney 17 25 Hubbard 0 12 Howland 0 33 F itch 8 24 Ursuline 17 27 Boardman 7 16 Harding 7 With some help from the offensive line, Bob- by Cayson sweeps by Panther Dave Preston. Paul Allard fires one of his many passes that helped bring Reserve to victory. 122 I Varsity Football helped bring the ball to the two . With protection from the offensive line, Bobby Cayson popped around the right side into the end zone. Alex Wade split the uprights, and the score was 7-0. The roar of our fans quickly faded, as Panther Pat Shanon returned the kick off for a T.D. The conversion evened the score at 7-7. The game remained a stalemate with five minutes in the fourth quarter. At the snap of the ball, Paul Gould knocked his way through Harding's defense and trapped the quarterback in the endzone for a safety, boosting the score to 9-7. With three minutes to go, Mark Brandon pulled down a Harding pass for an interception. On the next play, Ieff Peterson iced the cake with a 20 yardjaunt into the end zone.
