TAKES SIXTH IN STATE Opening the new year, the first meet was the Cheyenne Mountain Triangular. The team was dropped by Cherry Creek with a 87-39 score and was defeated by Cheyenne Mountain by a scant two points, 41-39. Swimming in the next out-of-town meet with Thomas Jefferson, the team lost 68-27. The Marau- ders had their first taste of victory at the Academy High School Triangular where Mitchell overthrew Englewood 53-42, but lost to Academy High 60-35. Following this, the next two meets were lost to Palmer 64-31 and to Denver South 66-29. Next, at the all-day Adams State Invitational in Alamosa, the Marauder tankmen came in fourth with 36W points. Arapahoe met our team next at home, but the Marauders were defeated 63-32. Out-of-state teams, Cheyenne Wyoming East and Cheyenne Wyoming Central, defeated the Marauders 61-35 and 62-33 respectively. Swimming well in the District Meet at Colorado College, the tankers took fifth place with 28 points. Fine individual improvement of the team is evi- dent by the fact that eight Marauders qualified for the State Meet at Adams City. They Were: Dan Lang- ston, Jan Shultz, Bill Stempson, Dennis Summers, and the 400 yard relay team composed of Dan Riddle, Mark Puskar, Rick Connell, and Robert Hunt. Team captain, Dan Langston placed sixth in the 50-yard free style event in the State Meet. CUTTING THROUGH THE water, team captain Dan Langston demonstrates his championship freestyle form. -t .

W7 240' DRIVING HARD INTO the territory of the Widefield Gladiators, Dave White attempts a shot at the goal. RECEIVE HONORS ON ALL-CITY TEAM Three members of the Marauder hockey team, Danny Britton, Chuck Mauro, and Dave White, re- ceived honorable mention on the All-City Team for the season. Glancing at the record they compiled and a special note of the improvement that was shown each round gives an indication of what practice can do, according to Coach John Christensen. Following is a comparison of the three rounds played with each member of the league for the 1965- 66 season: Cheyenne: Mitchell 0 - Cheyenne 10, Mitchell 0 - Cheyenne 7, Mitchell 1 - Cheyenne 3. Palmer: Mitchell 0 - Palmer 10, Mitchell 1 - Palmer 7, Mitchell 3 - Palmer 6. Wasson: Mitchell 1 - Wasson 10, Mitchell 1 - Wasson 9, Mitchell 0 - Wasson 6. Fountain Valley: Mitchell 2 - Fountain Valley 4, Mitchell 2 - Fountain Valley 4, Mitchell 1 - Foun- tain Valley 4. Widefield: Mitchell 5 - Widefield 5, Mitchell 3 - Widefield 3, Mitchell 4, Widefield 1. In fact, the Marauder's became the first team to enter the City Hockey League since its formation and not lose all its games the first year. GOALIE RON CHAVEZ receives assistance from Paul Pelak
