On The Sidelines by DMt Rafcbitt I Last week we honored the pep band, basketball cheerleaders, and the pom pom squad, and told of what a fine job they did the past season. Today we would like to honor some more McHenry High students. The wrestling cheerleaders along with the mat girls deserve some attention for the work that they do. The Varsity cheerleaders led by Capt. Julie Bitterman, along with Julie Bright, Karen Huebner, Kim Kathehner, Sandie Schau and Sandee Peterson, who do their best to urge the Warriors on to victory. The sophomore cheerleaders: Karen Szumlas the Capt. and Ricnelle Allen, Sue Kuna, Shelly VonBruencherhein and J iW Welter The frosh cheerleaders with Capt. Carrie Mortell, Sue Butler, Diane Kitterman and Pam Wroblewski. These lovely young ladies are quite noticeable at all the matches, and do a super job. Another group that is not quite as noticeable, but just as important to the program are the mat girls. These girls keep the score, and run the errands that are necessary when four levels of competition are wrestling on any given night. The varsity mat girls are Joni Witz, Debi Boro, Vicki Bazan, Tamee Baker, Leslee Schmidt, Fran Brogan, Sue Babarski, Terry Mai and Kathy Bavetz. I am sorry to report that I don't have the names of the sophomore and freshman mat girls, maybe by next week they will be available. Coaches Shanahan and Clayton have some important people helping them out in their swimming program. The "Timettes", the girls who keep the time at all meets and take a load off the coaching staff are: Carol Petty, Lisa Grimmonpre,Lis Bassett, Kathy Long, SueShoulda, Micki Blake, Paula Carbone, and Cindy Beyers. Also Scott Meyers the P A. announcer.. One fan who deserves a lot of credit is Wally Nuss, who is the P.A. announcer for all the wrestling matches. This gentlemen spends a lot of time with the wrestling program, and his work is really appreciated not only by the coaching staff, but the squad and wrestling fans. , With the additional help that all Warrior programs receive, it is no wonder that the athletic program at McHenry High School is one of the best in the area. Warriors will close out regular season tonight at Crown. A win is a must for the local team. Winning only one game since Christmas is most unusual to the basketball staff, players and fans. With the regional coming up next week, it is high time for the Warriors to get in the groove. We all would like to take the back roads to Rockford again this year. The swimmers didn't fare too well at Arlington last weekend. No state qualifiersfor Coach Shanahan, so the quiet spoken coach is going to relax and take it easy this spring. Don Freund almost made it to the State Finals, but wound up in third place. Only the top two advance to Champaign. Acknowledgement to George Cadotte who took notes for me at the Mundelein game last Saturday. Young Jeff Cadotte and Bob Zeller did a super job on the stats, and a tip of the fedora to these two young gentlemen. Spent the weekend in Champaign, and the word from the State University is that new football coach Gary Moeller is doing a super recruiting job. According to the sources he has plucked 11 blue chippers, and rival coaches are conceeding him the Chicago area. Had a card today from two former McHenry residents. Alex Justen a former mail carrier, who was always good for a visit on his route, and former McHenry High Coach Gordon Stringes, the coach from 1922 to 1928. The card came from Roy Homo country, Tarpon Springs, Florida. A letter will follow, so says the card, and knowing Alex, it will be a whopper. Seems that we mentioned a game that Alex played in a short time ago. Anyway good health to the both of them, and will be waiting to hear from them. The Plaindealer travels far and near. Had a request from an old friend in Batavia. Tom Garry, well known football and basketball official, who has worked many a Warrior games, wanted me to list a game in which he played in while at Lake Forest. Never one to turn down a request, we picked a game that Tom can relive with his officiating buddies, and expound on his past performances. It was during the 1956- 57 seasori when the Lake Forest Scouts defeated our Warriors 71 to 65. Young Tom at that time was the high scorer for the game with 18 pts. Read and enjoy it Tom, it was nice to hear from you. 1956-57 SEASON McHenry Frosh Down Undefeated Libertyville Five 54 To 46 And Thump Mundelein 52-39 PAGE 7 l i \!\I>KALER-ERIDAY, FEBRUARY 25. 1977- fg ft pf tP Pierce 0 0 0 0 Hogan 0 2 1 2 Schmitt 5 1 4 11 Cepulis 0 0 1 0 McMahon 0 3 1 3 Wright 2 1 5 5 Wissell 4 2 2 10 Huff 6 4 5 16 Beck 3 1 1 7 Huemann 3 5 5 11 Totals 23 19 25 65 The Warrior freshman basketball team defeated1 Libertyville Wildcats Saturday to blemish their 21 and 0 season record 54 to 46 on Saturday morning.

In the Libertyville game, Tony Sroka was the leading scorer with 12 pts., while Tom Schoenig 'and Jim Jackson combined with 18 rebounds to lead the Warriors on the boards. Against Mundelein Lenny Jensen led the attack with 14 pts and 8 rebounds. Bob Bit­ terman led the team in assists as playmaker The young Warriors weekend success was due in no small part to the "Pineys". This is a self inflicted nickname to the subs (because they sit on the j)ine» Greg Mroz. Tim Sabatka, and Kick Szumlas led the "Pineys", as they contributed 20 points and 10 rebounds and 4 assists to the Warrior cause.

Don Freund at 132 finished thrid and just barely missed qualifying for the finals, while Howie Useman and Bob Larke both finished fifth in the tough Barrington sectional. With Freund and Larke returning next season. Coach Marty Sobczak can expect great things from these two fine young men. Warriors Close Regular % Season Tonight At Crown By Dick Rabbitt Coach Ken Ludwig will take his squad to Crown tonight to close out the regular season. Since Christmas the only team the Warriors have beaten is the Crown Vikings, who have not won a game in the North Suburban ^ The Warriors have shown vast improvement in the last few games, but when you are not winning, it seems that luck goes against you. Over the past weekend the Warriors played good enough to win, but the ball just didn't seem to fall in the right hands at the right time. Both teams will be trying to close out the season on a note of glory. With regional tournament play coming up next week, victory for the Warriors could be the tonic they need to successfully defend their regional crown. There is no doubt that Coach Ludwig will have his cagers ready, and a good local following is expected to follow the Warriors to Crown.
