The Climbers' Kristi Manke
lost several points in the floor
exercise when the senior
inadvertently began her routine at
the wrong corner of the mat. As a
result, midway through her
compulsories she found herself
out of position and had to skip a
couple required moves.
"She had seen the others start
at that corner and she thought it
was mandatory," remarked Coach
Keeley. "Otherwise she probably
would have finished near the
top."
Keeley said she was not
terribly pleased with her girls'
performance despite the win.
"Our performances definitely
weren't up to last week's," she
said, referring to the Climbers'
season-opening win over
Centralia.
Keeley feels more emphasis
on muscle-building is what the
girls need most right now. "We
have to strengthen up the
shoulders and the stomach," she
said. "That's where girls usually
are the weakest."

Jayvee hoop
squad loses
to host Rams
The Highclimber jayvee
basketball team fell from the
ranks of the undefeated last
Friday, bowing 65-53 to strong
North Thurston.
The visiting Climbers, now
2-1, trailed by as few as six points
in the fourth quarter but "broke
down at the end," as Coach Jack
Marquett put it. "We didn't shoot
or rebound very well," he added.
"But North Thurston is a f'me
team. They're especially tough on
the boards."
The jayvees were led by Mel
Ferrier's 13 points. Stan
Bourgault added 12 while Marty
Rae and Joe Baze had eight
apiece. Doug Christensen tallied
six points.
Marquett had special praise
for the play of his sophomore
pivotman Brian Martin. "Brian
played his best ballgame," he said
of the 6-4 center. "It doesn't
show up in the stats but he did a
heckuva job on defense."
Doug Long
Former Shelton High School
standout Doug Long, named
small-college All-Ame~an by the
Associated Press last week, has
added All-District 1 and
All-Northwest Conference berths
to his post-season honors.
The 6"0" 190-pound wide
receiver at Whitworth College
caught 51 passes for 820 yards
and nine touchdowns, good for
third in the nation. His 51
receptions broke a Pirate record
held for 25 years and helped the
offensive unit to place first in the
league and district in passing
offense and sixth nationally.
Attention all ye wrestling
addicts subject to severe
withdrawal pangs:
Your fix is on the way.
Starting tonight, after more
than two weeks' layoff, the
Highclimber grapplers play host
to fully nine opponents in just
five days.
First-year school Capital
comes to town this evening to test
Coach Dick Wentz' young
wrestlers, and then Saturday the
Climbers play host to four AAA
schools and three from the AA
ranks at their annual Christmas
Tournament.
Finally, after a day's rest, it
will be back out on the home
mats Monday for the Climbers'
league match with Tumwater.
The Climbers' tentative
starting line-up is as follows:
101 Matt Kamin
- 108 Chet Chapman
115 Scott Valley
122 Dave Johnston
129 Clint Morgan
135 Dan Oliveira
141 Dave Cox
148 Rusty Wickett
158 Kevin Ridout
168 Tom Myer
178 Jesse Sharpes
190 Wayne Devaney
The onlynew face in the
line-up is that of senior Dave Cox
at 141 pounds. Cox turned out
only two weeks ago but got the
nod when 135-pound Arden
~ Merriman, who wrestled in the
141 spot against Elma in the
opener two weeks ago, contracted
the flu.
Senior Dale Brewer will also
sit out at least the Capital match
tonight, Wentz expects. The
Climber, third at State last year at
148 last year, is still recovering
from a bout with strep throat and
Wentz says he'll "probably play it
safe. although he may wrestle
Monday."
Featured in Saturday's
tournament will be Shelton,
Enumclaw, Franklin Pierce,
Longview, Central Kitsap, Clover
Park, Stadium and Tyee. The
latter four are AAA schools.
The visiting schools will bring
with them a returning state
champion in the person of
Longview's Rich Medeiros. He'll
be wrestling in the 101-pound
division.
Wentz picks Enumclaw and
Clover Park as the strongest teams
in the tournament, but said the
balance is very good and the
competition should be pretty
even. Trophies will be awarded to
the top three teams and the first
three places in each division will
receive respective gold, silver and
bronze medals.
The league matches tonight
and Monday get underway at 6
p.m. with the jayvee match-ups,
while the varsity starts at 7:30.
Tournament action begins at
10:30 Saturday morning,
consolation rounds are at 5:30
p.m. and the championships
follow at 7.
