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

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.

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

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. In the past six psychological challenge of

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.

there will be ten this season, will
