As the ball slips through the goalie's hands, the team rushes towards the scorer with congratulations and high-fives. The parents and fans in the stands applaud loudly: they have just ended their season with a win. The team-work of these talented players was just one example of the dedication of both the JV and FroshfSoph teams. The JV team showed great potential for the coming years. Sophomore Kenny Murray led the team with twelve goals, making him the number one scorer. Eric Hendrickson was another strong force on the teamthis year. Junior Jeff Eggum, displayed his outstanding talents while protecting the West's goal. A Another team that showed great potential for the future was the FreshmanfSophomore boys soccer team. These young athletes fin- ished first all around in Bay League this season. Freshman Tommy Dallen contributed to the team's success th rough his numerous goals, i along with Robert Lyttle. The team gave a lot of credit for their wins to their coaches, Joe Flanagan and Dominick Cefaione. They felt that the coaches were not obsessed with winning the game- but taught them the fundamentals of the game of soccer. The combination of team effort and the West High spirit, was the key to what made these two teams what they were this year. Junior, Mark Snakenborg commented, Everyone played together as a team, not for themselves. Freshmen, David Snakenborg and Alex Schultz felt that their year consisted of team effort as well. All these athletes looked forward to their coming years and the games to play. ,,,,,.,..t,.,ri . . ..r... :::E:,,::,:V . :r,, ,,:.:it,t,::. .
