Melody For Spring
Three major sports have disappeared
behind the horizon of history as far as the
1968-69 Highclimber athletic year goes.
Only one lived up to advanced expectations,
chiefly because not a great deal was ex-
pected from a wrestling squad which of-
fered little.
In this respect, at least, the matmen ac-
tually out-performed their football and bas-
ketball peers, from whom much more was
promised than was produced. Two Climber
grapplers fought their way to state, where
wiry, spunky Mary Wilson battled a rocky
route to third place in his weight division.
Dallas Gunter went through the regular
season undefeated, not meeting his match
until he hit district,
Wilson's feat set a towering plateau for
Climber athletes of the four spring sports
to scale if they'd match him. So, comes
the natural question, what are the
chances?
Potentially, and optimistically, they're
favorable. State honors are available in
baseball, track, golf and tennis to those
with the ability and good fortune to attain
the pinnacles of athletic achievement neces-
sary for scaling the cliffs. Theoretically,
it could occur in all four, although practic-
ally it's impractical to expect so much.
Nonetheless, Shelton high school is
rather richly endowed with spring sport
talent. Historically, it's an unusual year,
for example, when the Climbers do not
qualify at least one athlete, if not several,
for the state track meet at Pullman. Coach
Bill Brickert expects to kick up quite a fuss
in the Olympic League this spring with a
solid nucleus of returning lettermen and a
promising influx of sophomore Blazer grad-
uates. He'll trot most of it out for initial
public display today and tomorrow in the
annual inter-class meet. His chances of
chap:roning a Climber contingent to Pull-
man have to be rated hopefully high.
The road to state honors in baseball is
considerably steeper, but with a letterman-
loaded, solidly-senior squad, Coach Bernie
Dorcy potentially has candidates for the
all-state squad in the annual State vs. City
prep diamond doubleheader in Seattle next
summ.r. His Highclimbers should put up
a stout struggle with South and Central
Kitsap for the Olympic League tit!e,
Tennis coach Dick Morton has'tbun -
dant letterman material to make the Climb-
era an Olympic title threat with a team
"better than last year". He figures Shel-
ton's best bet for statedevel competition
will be in the doubles because the two Brem-
erton schools own the top singles talent.
Which leaves golf and very possibly
the brightest hope of all to bring home
state honors to Climberville. Coach Andy
Tuson tutors talent this spring which ap-
pears to be the best in the school's modern
golf history. It will take a powerful squad
to muscle the Climbers off the Olympic
links throne, and of course there might
be such a rival in the conference, but the
Climbers should make a highly audible
months, one that might even be heard right
into the state tournament.
This all sounds sweet and soothing,
something like the pre-season football and
basketball noises sports fans heard, only
to wind up as sour notes.
Th igredients seem to meet quality
standa:ds. Let's hope there's no curdling
during the cooking.
SPORTS SPLINTERS Former Climb-
cr athlete and ex-serviceman Jim Richards
starts buck to school at the end of this
month at Olympic Community College in
Brcmerton, where he expects to play foot-
):all next fall for the Rangers, perhaps gra-
vitating from there to the U.W. Huskies
or some other major athletic power if he
add c:vough weight to his current 205
pounds to attract an athletic grant. While
the community colleges don't have formal
official spring practice their grid athletes
do get in some pretty good licks in so-called
P.E. classes instructed by members of the
fcat-all coaching staff.
Jim will l:e joined at Olympic next fall
1)', younger brother Bill, also a two-sport
Climber letter winner except his pair in-
cluded football and track. Jim's second
sr.ort vta baseball, and a good one it was,
too. Bill, lacking his brothers heft, isn't
figuring to play football. He aims for a
caree in commercial art.
Since doffing his military uniform, Jim
has been playing city league basketball
with Jess' Mobil Service (which knocked
Verle's Sporting Goods out of the ham-
pionship last week and was the only team
t defeat the teachers on the maple court
this season), quite a bit of golf, and has
taken a fancy to mountaineering.
At this year's initial strategy-mapping
meeting last week, the Olympic Connie
Mack League (in which Shelton's Junior
Legion team has played for several years)
accepted Part Angeles as a new member
of the circuit for 1969 and hopes for a pos-
sible entry from Port Townsend as well.
Both the Ports have lighted fields for
night games, as does Bremerton, enhancing
greatly the attractiveness of the league to
its young players from North, South and
Central Kitsap and Shelton. This might
wind up as 4ellent 8-team league for
the coming pit:high school season. Jerry
Mallory, by the way, will not return as
Shelton Jay-ell coach this summer after
three years at the helm. Arrival of a baby
daughter in his family and his already am-
bitious activity schedule made the extra
responsibility of coaching just one thing
too much.
Incidentally, John Newsom, the PA rep-
resentative at the meeting, remarked that
passage recently of the special school levy
at Port Angeles assures return of a full
inter-cchool sports program for the Rough-
riders next school year. Port Angeles drop-
ped all inter-school athletics during the
1968-69 term, reducing the Olympic Leaguq
to seven members.
