FRESHMAN FOOTBALL by Leslie Goettsche The Freshman Football Team finished the season with a 1-6-1 record. Despite this fact, Doach Eppert says: We had many successes this year, starting with having 31 young men participating in the sport, about 10 or more from last year. Our season's highlight came against Gwinn, nearly beating them after losing the first game at the beginning of the year. We were the first Freshman team to win a game at Westwood, and the boys hope to vastly improve their record next year. When we asked Joe Johnson how the season went, he said, Not too good, we could have won more games. l-le said he learned one major thing from Coach Eppert and that was discipline.

CROSS COUNTRY CROSS COUNTRY by Lynn Johnson This year's cross country teams did remarkably well consider- ing their lack of experience and many injuries. Both the boys' and girls' teams overcame their injuries and achieved much more than was expected of them. The highlights ot the boys' varsity was when they took 1 st place in the Gwinn Invitational. They also took 3rd in the U.P, Finals. This year's boys' varsity had the highest finish ever for a West- wood Cross Country Team. They also had an honorable mention in the State rankings. The girls' varsity had an exceptional season for their first year. They finished 6th in U.P. Finals. Mr. Chinn was very pleased with this year's Cross Country Team. He said, They are a great bunch of kids to be associated with. They are hardworking, coachable, and they have super atti- tudes. This was a very rewarding season for me.
