At All Fall Sports Banquets l Some 200 Shelton High School athletes, their appetites and their parents packed the ltighclimber Student Union last week for a bit of traditional ballyhoo. They dined on fried chicken and ate up all manner of praise. The occasion was the All Fall Sports Banquet, a yearly affair presented by the Shelton Kiwanis Club as a tribute to those involved in the high school's five fall sports: football, girls' swimming, girls' tennis, girls' volleyball and cross-country. Highlighting the program was the presentation of individual awards to the most valuable and most inspirational players of each team, plus other awards as appropriate. Each presentation was preceded by a brief season-assessing speech by the respective head coach, during which all Participants were introduced and letter awards were announced. Earning post-season honors tot Jack Stark's football team were seniors John Vernon, Most Inspirational; Mel Morgan, Captain; Sam Martin, Best Tackler; and Jay Zamzow, Best Blocker. Girls' swimming coach Chris Kramer recognized the efforts of diver Kristi Manke, who placed at State this year, and then presented the Most Valuable award to Cindy Peterson and the Inspirational trophy to Cathy Rngerson. Sue Hanson bemoaned the fact that her girls' tennis team endured more than its share of rain this season - two regular-season cancellations and as many postponements of the district qualifying meet. The Climber who bore up best under the frustrations apparently was Eva Kubinsky, who was awarded the Inspirational trophy. Coach Judi Radtke shared the laughter and tears of another volleyball campaign, letting the audience in on a few private anecdotes arm then presenting a misty-eyed Sharee Franklin the Most Valuable Player award for the second straight year and Neva Strutz the Inspirational trophy. Finally, cross-country coach [ .on Stutzman described the ups and downs of his young harriers who placed 12th at State this season, had the number-five runner in Dan Johnson and the o OUTSTANDING HIGHCLIMBER ATHLETES as named at the annual All Fall Sports Banquet are (seated, left to right) Dan Johnson, Eva Kubinsky, Dave Johnson, Frances Nelson, (standing) Mel Morgan, John Vernon, Jay Zamzow and Sam Martin. Other winners were Sharee Franklin, Neva Strutz, Brian Perkins, Cindy Peterson and Kathy Rogerson. best freshman girl in the league and perhaps the state in Frances Nelson. Dan and brother Dave shared the Most Inspirational award, Frances was named Most Dedicated and Brian Perkins was Team Captain. The most popular of the five fall sports, participant-wise, was football. Approximately 55 played on the varsity and jayvee squads, while about 30 were on the ninth-grade team. Volleyball had about 35 girls out, and the swimming team numbered approximately 30. Cross-country and tennis followed with headcounts of roughly 15 and 25, respectively, according to the school's athletic department. The coaches also had their moments of glory. Following the award presentations, each coach was presented ken of appreciation from he? respective squad. They ranged from meals for two at a local restaurant in the case of the football coaches to a two-foot-high trophy in the case of the cross-country coach. ALL EYES... er, almost.., are on the awards stand during the All Fall Sports Banquet last week. Ten-month-old Benjamin Stutzman, son of Highclimber cross-country coach Leon Stutzman, finds alternative entertainment. rapplers' goal IS ers agles The 1975 Highclimber wrestling season gets underway tonight when Coach Dick Wentz' young grapplers take on the Eagles at Elma. Although they'll be without the services of gimpy-kneed Rusty Wickett, a junior who last year was among three Shelton wrestlers earning a trip to State, the Climbers will field a man in every weight division with the exception of one. Wentz has yet to come up with a replacement for 342-pound Gino Ream, 1973's State champion at - you guessed it - Valley and Chet Chapman holding down the 122-, 115- and 1 08-pound divisions and sophomore Matt Kamin coming on strong to nab the 101 spot for this first meet. In addition to Wickett, who may be out for another month or so, the Climbers will be without junior Karl Stolen, recovering from a head injury; Tom Myer, senior recuperating from a broken hand, and sophomore Kevin Ridout, whose knee injury is reportedly coming around. Wentz and his wrestlers have a winning tradition which may be tournament. The state will be divided into four regions, and four individuals from each weight class will compete, the number-one wrestler from one region meeting the number-four wrestler from some other region, and so on. The Climbers will also compete in five regular-season tournaments this season, two for the jayvees and three for the varsity, the reasoning behind such competition being it will prepare the wrestlers to compete more than once in a given day and also condition them to meet the heavyweight, tough to uphold.

Shelton meets the pansies, that's for thoughts ... will be senior Earl Freeman, while Dale Brewer, also a senior, will wrestle at 158. Dale was third best in the state last year at 148, and Wentz expects his weight to drop as the season progresses. The Climbers will have a sophomore in the 148-pound division, with Rick Haskell emerging as the best at that weight in last week's intrasquad wrestle-off. The 141-pound spot remains open pending the outcome of a few post-Turkey Day weight-loss programs, and Wentz said he is not prepared to speculate as to the Climber representative at that weight against Elma. Senior Dan Oliveira, returned after transferring out his junior year, will open at the 135-pound spot. Wentz said Oliveira was the Climbers' most improved wrestler his sophomore year, and the coach expects good things from him this year. Returning to his 129-pound spot - the one at which he wrestled at State last year as a junior - will be Clint Morgan. Morgan suffered an injury after wrestling two matches at the championship last season but is back in top form this year. The senior class was aced out in the remaining four divisions, with juniors Dave Johnston, Scott Rams January 26 at home.
