Northeast High 1979 Yearbook

Time-a moment , a generation , an age , an era Time brings wisdom and knowledge. Time also brings tears and hardship , joys and happiness. Time cannot be replaced-it is there once , and only once. Moments arrive to be made the most of. Time brings opportunity.

Lincoln Northeast High School a/so brings opportunity. Upon entering as a sophomore , the world of Northeast is overwhelming. So much to do-so many things to see. Learning your way around the Northeast building is an unforgettable experience. Many sophomores purchase elevator tickets from seniors , only to discover Northeast does not have an elevator. Numerous clubs , activities and sports await your participation . Another new experience for sophomores is open campus. The open campus program offers the option of eating lunch at school or at a nearby store or restaurant.

A year quickly passes. Suddenly , you 're a junior. No longer are you a frightened , confused sophomore. Juniors experience more freedom They may attend the Junior-Senior Prom. They can participate as club officers. An opening in a reserve or varsity sport may even come your way. Juniors are also warned to think about the future . College or a full-time job looms in the future. Preliminary college tests are offered , such as the PSA T. But a junior has one more year of security

The sheltered life begins to fade. Seasons change and a new senior faces the world The last year of high school remains. The senior bench appeals to twelfth graders. Many individuals realize that they will never again sit with the Pep Club or the Rowdy Rooters. The time has arrived for senior pictures and yearbook glossy pictures to be taken. Seniors ponder graduation and the final days of high

school. Graduation announcements are ordered and future graduates are measured for cap and gown sizes. College brochures arrive and even college entrance tests , like the ACT and SAT. And the feeling- 'this is really it I 'm finally a senior , but the time doesn 't last long enough. ' This is our time. The time is not reversible and we must make each moment count. Like Benjamin Franklin said , " Lost time is never found again. "

Glance down the trail on the cover of this 1979 ROCKET yearbook. The trail can portray , if you want , the passage of time through Northeast High School. The trail beckons for sophomores to enter and follow the path. The route winds and dips , as individuals endure the highs and lows of daily living. The trail widens and the trees begin to thin. A senior prepares for graduation. But as you read this yearbook , wherever your place is on the trail , remember your trails through Northeast-remember your " Trails in Time. "

Tears, Fears, Future-Part of Being a Senior

There are many things that happened during the year for seniors. A few of the things are: a chance to be nominated for home-coming, ordering graduation announcements, and having special glossies taken for the yearbook that are larger and more special than normal class pictures. The classes that most seniors take are usually easy , because most seniors have filled their graduation requirements and are just waiting to pass the time, and have a little fun. Usually the one really hard class most seniors take is modern problems, because it deals with a lot of the problems that people and socie-

ty face in this day and age.

Emotions are a real part of being a senior. Along with experiencing feeling of happiness, and sadness, seniors also experience feelings of rowdiness, destruction, and a case of the blahs. As one senior puts it , "I'm out to have a good time , who cares, it's my last year."

A few seniors have different opinions of their last year. Some seniors are glad to get out, as Bobbi Burback exclaimed, "Thank God it 's over!" Some seniors feel that their year has filled their expectations. Vicki Russell stated, "It was everything I thought it would be." Other seniors

wanted it to go slower. "This year went too fast," commented Barb Mueksch

Besides the fact that most seniors have different feelings about their senior year, most agree it's a time to prepare for the future, have fun, and make memories that last forever. It's a time to plan for college, but most important it's really the last chance to have fun before growing up and leaving high school. Jean Fag/er commented that, "It's a sad time, because you are doing a lot of the things you 've done throughout your high school years for the last time. "

Juniors Involved

" The whole atmosphere of the school is more comfortable than last year The school doesn 't seem as big as it did when I was a sophomore," said one junior.

Although other juniors perhaps shared the thought that the school doesn 't seem as big , their class size of 585 students , was second in school, trailing only the sophomore class of 628

Many juniors participated in the wide range of clubs and activities offered at Northeast including athletics, plays, band, dances, singing groups , and Student Council. This year 's Student Council consisted of 35 students.

However, all of these activities did not exclude the fact that school work came first Juniors had a variety of classes to choose from. Many had to keep in mind that they should take classes strongly recommended for college preparation The four major classes suggested for college entrance were American History , American Literature, chemistry, and Algebra 3-4.

With all the variety came longer hours of studying for many juniors. " Homework has increased a lot since my sophomore year, " conceded Julie Patton. "I don 't have as much spare time as I used to , 11 commented Laurie Miller.

Teachers also had their own views on juniors at school. " Students are better prepared in composition this year and there is also a difference in maturity ," stated Mrs. Norma Pyle , an American Literature teacher. ·

An increase in junior-oriented classes created difficulty for chemistry teacher Randy Emry. During the 1978-1979 school year Emry taught seven classes, three more than last year Complications did occur. " It makes class planning very difficult , 11 conceded Emry.

Generally, this year was a lot of fun, but one junior has her own explanation of the year. "This has been a totally funky year, man, 11 concluded Shannon Cartwright.

"This time is a very good one if we but know what to do with it."

NE Challenges 1978-79 Sophs

" Learning is like rowing upstream ; not to advance is to drop back ." -Chinese (anonymous)

Adjusting to the new people and surroundings were just some of the problems sophomores encountered on the first day However, most sophomores accepted the new challenges eagerly. " I was looking forward to my first year at Northeast ," commented sophomore Cindy Hempel. "It was time for a change after three years. "

Northeast 's wide variety of clubs kept many of the 628 sophomores busy during the year, although sophomore club enrollment was down slightly from previous years. " There 's more clubs and activities to get involved in than at junior high ," said one active sophomore. " I felt like I really belonged."

Typical problems sophomores face every year are rearranging overloaded schedules , basic orientation about the school policies, and becoming informed about graduation requirements. Class attendance was a problem some sophomores took too lightly. "Sophomores do not realize that the attendance policy is enforced. It's an important problem and we try to make sophomores more aware of its seriousness , " Counselor Mr!. Vivian Wilson stated.

Counselors planned meetings with all sophomores periodically throughout the year. " Sophomore English teachers arranged a time during class for us to meet and orientate them We can ' t get to everyone , but this enables us to get to as many as possible ," conceded Wilson.

Open campus was a new experience many sophomores welcomed without complaints. Most sophomores took advantage of the chance to go out for lunch. " I like getting away from school for awhile ," Cheryl Bridger said " I don ' t go out for lunch very often but at least I can if I want to ," added Mary Choma.

The only classes required of sophomores are English 10 and career or i entation Other common classes sophomores shared were biology , geometry, and driver 's education. " Classes are a lot harder this year," according to Michelle Bergquist. " I have more homework than last year. " Generally, most sophomores enjoyed their first year at Northeast. " Being a sophomore at Northeast is quite an experience if you catch my drift ," concluded Jim Chase.

1. Rocket spirit prevails at a car rally 2. High school offers open campus , but many sophomores elect to eat lunch in the cafeteria 3. Sophomores M ichelle Grabowski, Susan Jackson and Terri Furman plan Rocket victory strategy before an approaching g ame. 4. Writer 's Gallery sketchbooks await usage by many sophomores. 5. Sophomores enjoy the company of juniors in many biology classes. Junior Julie Ter r ell and sophomore Ron Holdren conduct a weighing experiment 6. Teresa Shadley happily receives a Christmas present from a longt i me hero , Santa Claus 7. Tenth graders rise to the occasion for a rous i ng cheer , " Class Victory! " 8. Sophomore gymnast Jeff Cassell is a picture of deep concentration as he competes on the parallel bars

StuCo Progress Slow but Sure

The year progressed rapidly, especially for the Northeast Student Council (StuCo). Although at times it seemed like little was achieved during the year, StuCo president Karen Hart stated, "hopefully by the end of the year we will accomplish what we 've set out to do."

Finishing the constitution , proposing to replace the teacher advisory program, closing the student lounge , moving the pop machines, sending students to work shops at different colleges, sponsoring a scholarship of $150.00 for outstanding leadership ability, and sending themselves to South Sioux City for a state convention were some of StuCo ' s major accomplishments. They have also sponsored several monthly projects, like selling candy canes at

Christmas time, and paper valentines for Valentine's Day and a Halloween movie. All of these activities were used as fund raising projects.

For projects around the community, StuCo sponsored a "can dance." The purpose of the dance was to encourage students to bring cans of food that would be given to the Family Shelter meals on wheels program. StuCo also passed out papers and pamphlets dealing with the lid bill

Although StuCo is making very good progress, and has done a lot of things for the school and community, the phrase "there is always room for some improvement " seems to apply. "Although we've had some difficulties with the faculty, we could have had it a lot rougher," commented Hart.

78-79 Debate-" Best In Years,,

"We have a well rounded group this year. All the students chose different types of speaking, so there was a variety," stated debate Coach Jack Mueller.

The topic for the debate class of 1978-79 was, "Should the federal government establish a comprehensive program to significantly increase the United States energy dependence?" This covered any energy source or sources that can take over for the energy we import, namely oil.

Debaters were put into three divisions, novice, junior varsity and varsity.

Members of the novice division were Dawn Bartzatt, Russell Bates, Greg Biggs, Beth Blecha, Bob Carlberg, Bruce Condello, Jeanne Ewert, Terri Furman, Jeff Goldenstein, July Kirk, Kelly McKinney and Greg Stahlnecker.

Junior varsity consisted of Mimi Ewert, James Geschwender, Kathy Hedges and Tim Renyer. Varsity participants were Ingrid Arnold, Bonnie Bateman, Jim Carlberg and Randy Fox.

Competition for novice and junior varsity took place inside Nebraska. Varsity participants had out of state

meets in Kansas City, • St. Joseph, Des Moines and Sioux Falls. The club had accumulated eight trophies, as of February 7.

Extemporaneous speaking and Impromptu were some of the approaches used in contests. "This group was exceptional, they were the best I've seen in years," conceded Mueller.

NFL Active

"Anyone in debate should belong to NFL; it's a club for debaters," stated club member Jim Carlberg.

Requirements to be in the club were belonging to the upper quarter of their class and getting 25 points in extra-forensic activities. Members earned points in competition in the following areas: oratory, oral interpretations, debate, dinner speaking and extemporaneous speaking.

There are four levels of NFL membership: honor, excellence, distinction and special distinction.

During the 78-79 school year members sold concessions at athletic events and held parties.

First semester officers for the club were president Mimi Ewert, vicepresident Randy Fox and secretarytreasurer Ingrid Arnold.

Supplement Accompanies Yearboo ·k

A supplement accompanied the yearbook for the second year in a row. It included many spring activities such as senior prom, graduation, and spring sports not ordinarily in the yearbook. "There were some problems with getting the supplement to the seniors," ROCKET advisor Daryl Blue commented. Seniors had the option of paying for the supplement in advance and leaving an address where it ·could be mailed to them or they could pick it up in the fall.

The order of pages was changed with the student identification sections coming before the faculty sections. "There was no big reason for the change," Blue stated. "We just thought it was time to do som,ething different." Student quotes were also eliminated from the student life and mood sections. Captions were used instead.

The ROCKET price was upped this year from $8 to $9. Higher production costs and inflation were responsible. "Most of the schools raised their price to $9 if not more," according to Blue. ROCKET sales were slightly down this year with early sales totalling 800 books compared to about 1000 last year

Only two seniors returned to the ROCKET staff. Although many new members had not taken a high school journalism class many had experience from working on a junior high paper or yearbook. Linda Shepard and Jim Chase were the first sophomores to join the ROCKET staff in several years.

Time conflicts and lack of organization were some problems the staff encountered. "Arranging a time for interviews was one of my biggest problems, " commented Nancy Williamson , copy staff.

NERN Published

The 1978-79 Northeastern staff consisted of 17 students, advised by Mr. Daryl Blue for the seventh year. The staff published 17 issues during the year.

A change in size was made midway through first semester. The Northeastern was enlarged to the tabloid size which was new for Northeast even though many high schools have already experienced this style. "This gave the staff more experience working with a larger newspaper," stated Blue. For the Christmas issue the staff went back to the old size because of its 30 page length.

At first the new size was considered by many students not very conventional, but after more issues came out, students began to accept and appreciate the new style.

Working on a staff such as the Northeastern requires dedication and time. "Depending on how good you want your story to be, depends on how much time you take on it," commented sports writer Doug Thomas.

The advertising staff, consisting of four students, did exceptionally well getting ads for the paper. "This was the best ad staff I've seen in years," stated Blue, "they worked hard and accomplished a lot." The Northeastern could be purchased for ten cents or an activity ticket.

French Club Isn't All Parties

For seven years French Club has been a school organization related to the French culture. "Its purpose," stated French Club Sponsor Ms. Laurie Evans, "is to have a lot of fun, and do a variety of activities related to the French way of life, which includes things that students don't normally have a chance to do. "

French Club has sponsored many fund raising activities. Some of those included a monopoly marathon, two stationary drives , selling concessions at some Northeast games, and a few bake sales. French Club plans to spend most of the money used from their fund raising projects for an overnight trip to Omaha to visit a museum and eat at a

French restaurant.

French Club has had many fun activities this year. A French style picnic that got rained out, but ended up in someone 's garage was one of the first activities. "The picnic turned out to be a lot of fun, but hopefully our next picnic won't be rained out, " commented Evans. Another activity that was really fun according to Evans, was a Halloween costume party, where everyone dressed up as a famous French person, went to Valentino 's and ate in their costumes , then went to a haunted house. Other parties included a Christmas party, a Mardi-Gras party, and a few scavenger hunts.

Spanish Club-Cultural Experience

Northeast Spanish Club held a nu"!ber of fund-raising projects durmg the year such as bake sales , a car wash , selling valentine carnations ,. selling light bulbs , and sponsonng a dance. Funds were used for a dinner dance at Sweep Left, a paella feed (Spanish shell fish dish) , the annual senior farewell pa rty , a~d a trip to Kansas City, M,ssoun this summer.

students taking Spanish are el1~1ble to join. " We try to do as many th mg~ as possible dealing with the Spamsh culture ,,, Spanish Club sp~nsor Mrs. Benevent Dewey explamed. " It also gives members a chance to get together and do things that they ordinarily couldn't do ,, conceded President Michelie Magruder

The club didn't experience any major problems. Magruder felt that at times the " responsibilities were unbalanced " within the club. Lack of attendance was also a minor problem.

" I really enjoyed all the activities we did this year" Holli Blake commented. "I had a lot of fun and got to know different people ," said Vice President Christie Yeates.

Spanish Club members consisted of seniors-Michelle Magruder, Christie Yeates, Denise Grahm , Jamee Etherton , Jana Barnell, Mimi Ewert, Bonnie Bateman and Vicky Frantz. Juniors-Holli Blake, Vic Weber , and Mark Vannorsdall. Sophomores-Cindy Hempel , Sara Donovan , Jeannie Ewert and Todd Kraft.

FBLA New Club

Some of FBLA 's activities included FBLA week from February 1117. During the week they had a different project or activity for each day. Some of their projects for that week included raising money by selling concessions at a Northeast game, having a bake sale, visiting the state legislature, touring the City-County building, and also having a joint meeting with the Waverly and Pius FBLA clubs. Another big activity for the club will be going to the FBLA State Conference at the Omaha Hilton, for about three days, towards the end of the year. Each student could participate in no more than three contests, choosing from 40 different ones that are offered. There will be speakers, seminar talks, and an election of state officers. Pam Carver plans to campaign for a state office.

Part of the FBLA creed states that each student has a respon. sibility to work efficiently and to think clearly, and to use those abilities to make the world a better place for everyone. Another part of the creed explains the need for every individual to be actively interested in a better social, political, community, and family life.

"For the first year that the club has existed," explained Peters, "there was a tremendous amount of participation, that really exceeded my expectations. It seemed to show that there was a definite need for a business oriented club." According to senior Danette Faust, "The club was really a lot of hard work, and even though I had to make a few sacrifices in my other activities, I did learn tremendously."

GAA-Girls Key to Reorganization

The Girls Athletic Association (GAA) hasn't had many projects or activities this year, because they were in the process of reorganizing due to the small number of girls involved. The club sponsor Mrs. Vietta Short stated, "Since more girls are participating in varsity sports, they seem to forget they can have just as much fun in a sport related club, so we have greatly decreased in numbers."

Each year GAA has one main project-using the money they earned from being in charge of the

candy machine. This year the club chose as their project buying two water fountains for the girls locker room. They are also going to put up a bulletin board in the main hall by the office, that will be divided into at least three sections, including the Counselors Corner, student notices, and special interests.

The members of the club would also like to have some parties including eating pizza, bowling, swimming, and roller skating. Short concluded, "As we get reorganized we will be able to do more."

Penguins-Graceful Swimmers

Nineteen girls made up the 197879 Penguins Club. According to the club 's sponsor, Mrs. Vietta Short, the club made very good progress. Even though it was very rushed in preparing for the club's annual show, this year entitled, "Christmas through a porthole."

Penguin Club members participated in more than just the show. Besides the two scheduled performances in December, there were two additional performances in January for most of the 5th and 6th graders in the Lincoln area. The club had pool parties, and a banquet, where officers were elected for next year, and awards were given to different members of the club. The club also went around to different schools to see different synchronized swimming programs. It was even planned that they would go to

Hastings to observe the Flamingo 's, Hastings' synchronized swim club. The officers for this year were President Toni Zulauf, Vice-president Brenda Beebe, Student Director Karen Kendle, Secretary Joy McEntarffer, and Treasurer Liz Justus. The only requirements of the officers, was they had to be at least a second year member. Along with the officers the second and third year members got to choreograph the moves and design the costumes of the different acts.

Klintberg-Key to Progress

The Northeast marching band made a lot of progress this year , as Jeff Klintberg was hired as the new Northeast band director. "The attitude and determination of the students has helped us to progress as far as we have," stated Klintberg.

The marching band had many goals set for the year, but some members of the band doubted that the goals set could be reached by the scheduled time. One of the goals accomplished was going to Pershing Auditorium in late November. At this event, the Northeast marching band placed in competition, receiving two superiors and three excellents. This was i'!st one example of the many goals the marching band reached during this year.

Many different types of activities

and contests were set for the year . One of the first contests was the Harvest of Harmony Parade held in Grand Island, where the band ranked fourth in the parade and received an excellent for the field competition.

The band also played for many football and basketball games Some games were out of town , like the migration to Fremont. The band had never performed at as many games as they did this year.

There were many exercises that went into preparing for a football game, basketball game , or another contest Klintberg said he would usually start with anything from a warm up exercise to splitting into instrumental sectionals.

NE Bands Play

" There is just not enough hours in the day, " was Jeff Klintberg 's only complaint. This was Klintberg's first year at Northeast. He had previously taught at Norris High school for four years. " I really enjoyed working with the kids. I've had a much easier time getting adjusted than before, " Klintberg commented. However, Klintberg did feel a need for more "good quality stereophonic equipment. "

"Stage band consists of about 25 members and it 's a smaller group than orchestra I try to expose them to a variety of music-pop, rock , jazz and polka ," Klintberg explained. Besides performing at the Kiwanis ' pancake feed , Northeast honor assembly, and open house at NE, they also competed in numerous jazz festivals such as the UNO, Doane college , and All-City festivals. In order to join stage band students must be in band or orchestra. They must also try out or have teacher permission.

Thespians Change to Drama Club

"The purpose of the Northeast Drama Club is to join people together who have an interest in drama and the theater," stated senior Karen Jordan.

The Northeast Drama Club is the new name for Thespians. "We had to change our name because we stopped our membership with the National Society of Thespians. We had to pay dues of $5.50 each year and we were supposed to be sent a certificate and magazines, and none of us received anything," said club member Rob Fisher.

The club played a major role on the construction crew and as cast for the all-school fall and spring plays.

Drama ·Club members had large roles in "Look Homeward Angel," and ''The Happiest Days of Your Life."

Members planned for a trip to the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota. To raise money for this trip, the club sold concessions at athletic events and had a car wash earlier in the year.

The club aided Homecoming at halftime with a skit. They also provided props for the Penguin show.

The main goal of the Drama Club was to organize the props and straighten the prop room.

Students involved in the club met the first and third of every month to discuss the happenings at that time.

First semester officers were: President Karen Jordan, Vice-President Roger Wilke, Secretary Brett Laursen , and Treasurer Jani Schindler.

'Look Homeward Angel' Performed

"Working together with these people was a lot of fun, we learned how to get along with each other," commented Rob Fisher about the fall al/school play.

On November 16 and 17, the Northeast Drama Club presented " Look Homeward Angel" by Ketti Frings, based on the novel by Thomas Wolfe.

"Look Homeward Angel," a serious play with points of humor, was presented in three acts with two ten minute intermissions.

The story took place in Altamont, North Carolina with scenes in the Dixieland Boarding House in W. 0. Gant's marble yard and shop

"Look Homeward Angel" was an autobiography through the stages of Thomas Wolfe 's life. In the play, Wolfe's character Eugene was portrayed by Mike Walker.

Eugene is first affected by the new boarder Laura James , played by Angie Fe/sing. He falls in love with her and they plan for a future. However, Laura tells of her engagement and returns to her fiance.

Another aspect of Wolfe's life was the death of his brother, Ben Gant, played by Brett Laursen. Eugene's goal is to escape from everything and be on his own In the end, he fulfills his goal and becomes his own man

" The kid 's were very mature and understood their parts really well ," commented director Lynne Carrell.

The play marked a first at Northeast by having a unique, revolving platform on which two bedrooms were placed. The platform took seven weeks to build and was 16feet in diameter and stood four feet off the ground.

Northeast Welcomes AFS Students

"I was encouraged by a teacher and by my friend that had come to America on AFS, to register for the AFS program, 11 stated Catherine Becker, Northeast's 1978-1979 AFS exchange student. Catherine came to the United States from Strasbourg, France.

Catherine registered with 22 others to go abroad and six were selected. Four went to the United States. "We didn't have a choice as to which state we wanted to go to, but we could tell them if we didn't want to be placed in a certain area of the United States. 11

Coming from an all girl school of 700 in France, she encountered some new experiences. The girls in Catherine's school start in kindergarten and continue all through high school. The way of choosing classes at Northeast is quite different from France. In France, students choose a section which they are interested in and the classes are then given to them. Catherine's classes in France were math, philosophy, language, science, history and geography. Her schedule at Northeast was life sports, 11-12 Mixed Chorus, world literature, Speech 1, Spanish 6, American History, modern problems and drama. "I wanted to take classes that were not offered in my country, 11 explained Catherine.

"People are friendly here, I feel at ease around them, 11 Catherine said. She took seven years of English in France which helped her communicate.

"The way people dress in France is a little different than in the United States. Catherine was quite intrigued with the numerous amount of people who wear jeans. In France they can't wear clogs or shorts to school. "We usually wear dress pants or a dress, but never jeans, 11 she said.

Catherine's host family for her stay was Mr and Mrs. Larry Price. Their daughter, Lorri Price , is a senior at Northeast.

Contest Speaking

Contest Speaking involved a lot of challenges since it was a new class at Northeast. "During our class period we prepa r e for contests and we have to do a lot of outside work, too," stated Rob Fisher.

"Contest Speaking began because of some requests for this type of class," said sponsor Jim Putman.

The class consisted of five students: Russ Bates, Rob Fisher, Karen Jordan, Barb Morrison, and Pam Suidzinski.

An early year highlight for the group was when Rob Fisher and Karen Jordan placed second out of 20 schools in Duet Acting at Wayne State College. The group hoped for continued success with other contests scheduled second semester.

Duet Acting wasn't the only area of speaking class members could choose. Other popular areas included Public Speaking, Oral Interpretation, Prose and Poetry, and Informative.Public Address.

Northeast Singing Groups A-ctive During 1978-7

"It's really been a smooth year," according to Duane Nichols, vocal teacher. Among the classes he teaches, Nichols felt that junior and senior mixed chorus gained popularity from previous years. Some reasons for its popularity are that it is now a five day a week class and is worth five credits. It's also the only non-select music class offered to juniors and seniors. Other classes Nichols taught were sophomore girls chorus, octet, concert choir,

triple trio, voice, and music theory.

"Except for the usual little problems, this has been the best year since I've been here," Mrs. Mary Oestmann, vocal teacher, stated. She teaches men's and women's glee, swing choir, voice, sophomore girls chorus, and chamber singers which was started just last year. "Chamber singers is different from swing choir because the music and harmonies are more difficult and more contemporary," Oestmann explained.

The vocal groups participated ir variety of activities during the yec The swing choir sang at the Tc Osborne Roast and sang a Chri~ mas medley at Gateway. Some oth highlights included both triple ti and octet's performance at t1 Governor's mansion. Concert chc performed the school musical, "Tl Music Man" at Northeast.

Pep Club Active

Two words that mean support at Northeast are pep club. Support of school athletics helps keep club members busy. Mrs. Nancy Bishop sponsored the club.

Activities by the club were numerous. In late August of 1978, pep club sponsored the annual Sophomore Tea. Pep Club officers, twirlers, star strutters, varsity and reserve cheerleaders were introduced. Twirlers and star strutters each performed a routine. Cheerleaders taught the sophomores a few cheers. Refreshments and tours of the building followed.

Pep Club also sponsored the Homecoming Dance, which had a good turn out. Members had opportunities to participate on committees like decorations, royalty, food, publicity and tickets.

Two migrations were held, a football and basketball migration. Football migration took approximately 90 members to Fremont on October 27. Basketball migration was held February 3 in Grand Island. Members attended both the boys and girls basketball games and went to Conestoga Mall.

Spirit week was held January 2426. A sign making party was held to see which class had the most spirit. Juniors were voted the most spirited class. Senior Denise Steyer was given the spirit girl award.

It was Northeast counselor Mrs. Jane Olsen's first year as twirler sponsor. "Basically, the girls make up the routines. I watch them and give suggestions," explained Olson.

Twirlers performed at basketball and football games throughout the year. They attended a clinic during the summer at Seward and placed first in a contest at Fairbury. Twirlers added more dance steps to their routines than in past years, and used props such as hats.

The twirlers modified their outfits as well as their routines. Instead of sequined suits, they bought black skirts and black short sleeved sweaters with white stripes.

The 1978-79 reserve cheerleading squad included: Kim Grabowski, JeanAnn Larsen, Missie Lesoing, Debbie Smedjir, Cheryl Votava and Terri West.

During the summer the squad attended a clinic in Crete where they won various awards. "We practiced every morning except Friday from 8:00 till 10:00 doing cheers and mounts etc," commented Kim Grabowski.

The cheerleaders worked hard making locker and door signs for the athletic teams during class seventh period every day. In addition the squad made refreshments for the teams.

The reserve cheerleaders boosted Northeast sports by cheering at all the Northeast reserve sports, boys swimming, cross country, and tennis meets. Spirit was also obvious at

the pep rallies. They participated in skits and cheering.

To raise funds for this group they sponsored a car wash and bake sale, which were successful.

All the cheerleaders felt that being a cheerleader made their year a lot of fun.

As first year drill team sponsor, Mrs. Karen Poore felt a few challenges. "When 18 different personalities are grouped together you're going to have a challenge, but the girls got along really well together, as their performances proved."

Drill team members practiced during the summer from 8:00 till 10:30. They also practiced every day at school during seventh period. "When it's the week of the performance, we stay after school and practice until 4:00," stated junior member Traci Meyer.

During the summer the girls attended clinics in Kansas and in Fremont. Team awards in Fremont were first in the dance competition and first in the all-around. In Kansas they placed second in the marching competition.

The Long & Winding Road

"The Long and Winding Road," touches Homecoming 1978. On October 13, Homecoming began with a pep rally and the announcement of Homecoming royalty. Randee Johnson and Trudi Renner were chosen as host and hostess. Tom Curry and Vicki Russell were selected as first attendants. Second attendants were Jeff Svoboda and Jana Barnell.

Being chosen for royalty was an honor for these students. "The neatest thing about being royalty is that it came as such a surprise, no one knew who got it until their names were announced at the rally," stated Vicki Russell.

Homecoming activities continued that evening with a hard fought battle against Southeast. Northeast ended up with a disappointing loss as the Knights prevailed 23-13.

The halftime show brought back alumni from 1968. All royalties were honored by a short skit put on by Thespians and a routine performed by the Star Strutters, assist~d by the Rocket band.

As a change from previous years, the Homecoming dance was held the following night in Northeast's gym A total of 214 couples attended the dance, which was an increase from last year "Buckeye" provided the music to keep everyone dancing.

Rocketmania

Just exactly what is Rocketmania? Rocketmania is the indescribable spirit that drives fans as far west as North Platte to watch Northeast athletes perform. It's also the madness which packs the seats at Seacrest Field or Pershing Auditorium. Obviously student and neighborhood support is important to the various athletic teams. These fans, filled with Rocketmania, play an important role in the success of the teams. Perhaps Rocketmania is one of the reasons Northeast is one of the more successful high schools in Nebraska prep athletics.

Rocketmania is a boost to the athlete, but many fans don't realize the physical and mental preparations involved in high school athletics. Many long hours are spent in the weight room over the summer. Much time is also spent perfecting one's backhand, running stride, swim stroke, or infielding. All this training could be for nothing though if an athlete isn't properly "psyched up." Many hours are spent in bed staring at the ceiling on the night before a crucial athletic contest. But on a · game day, an athlete builds confidence as he walks down the halls filled with Rocketmania.

What happens to Northeast athletes after they've left the Rocketmania filled halls? For many, athletics will play a major role in their lives. Some will compete for colleges, while others might even reach the professional level. But one thing is certain, Rocketmania will follow Northeast athletes for the rest of their lives.

Rockets Finish 8 _ -3; Place Third

The 1978 edition of the varsity football team finished with an 8-3 mark and ended the season ranked third in the Lincoln Journal-Star rankings.

The Rockets opened their season with a tough win over Norfolk 21-14.

Senior halfback Tom Curry started the scoring by receiving a -punt on the seven-yard line, and racing 93 yards down the sideline untouched. The extra point failed and the Rockets led 6-0. A Doug Ayars interception sparked another Northeast touchdown as Randee Johnson passed to tight end Jeff Svoboda for the next score. Northeast made the two point conversion and increased their /(!ad 14-0.

The Panthers weren't discouraged though as they intercepted a pass, and marched 80 yards to score before the end of the first half. Norfolk started the second half by scoring on their first possession, knotting the score at 14-14.

The Rockets then replied with a 69 yard drive of their own. In the drive, starting quarterback Randee Johnson suffered a fracture, an injury that would hamper him all season.

Senior Pat Neill replaced Johnson, and scored the winning touchdown on a one-yard sneak.

After Norfolk, the Rockets made the long journey westward to face

North Platte. Senior quarterback Neill, making his first quarterback start, played admirably and scored on a 10-yard run. "I really didn't know what to expect since I was starting on both offense and defense" stated Neill. "After the first few touchdowns I was more relaxed." Tom Curry was in the spotlight also that night as he scored four touchdowns and rushed for over 200 yards. Running backs Mike Larsen and Jim Prai also scored for Northeast as they ripped the Bulldogs 54-6.

In their next home game, the Rocket defense registered its first shutout of the season downing Hastings 20-0. The offense wasted no time as Mike Larsen sprinted 42 yards on the first possession to give Northeast an early 7-0 lead. Thesecond and third quarters proved to be a defensive battle. The Rockets didn't really have the Tigers by the tail until the fourth quarter when Curry scored on six and seven yard runs to put the game away.

In the first intra-city game of the season Northeast faced a stiff Lincoln High defense. The Links held the Rockets to a mere 55 yards on the ground, not counting a game breaking 86 yard run by Tom Curry. Curry's touchdown was the only score of the night as the defense

notched their second shutout in a row. Two interceptions by Jim Prai and one by Doug Ayars, all in the fourth quarter, protected the Rockets unbeaten record.

After defeating Bel/9vue East 3416, the Rockets went on to win what may have been the most satisfying game of the season.

On a cold October night Northeast faced intra-city rival East High and downed them 34-7. "We were really fired up because we had hard times with East before," stated senior cocaptain Kent Walker. "We got beat last year (3-0), so this was kind of a revenge game."

The Rockets started out in an unsurprising manner as Curry dazzled Rocket fans by returning the opening kick-off 90 yards. The run marked Curry's 12th touchdown, of the season. The Spartans bounced right back though as East quarterback Todd Zart threw an 11-yard touchdown pass on East's first possession. But that was East's only touchdown of the night as the Rocket defense picked off three passes in the second half. Junior tackle Lynn Knuth returned one intercepted pass 47 yards to set up a touchdown by Mike Larsen. Reserve quarterback Ken Calkins ended the night's scoring on a nine-yard run with 40 seconds to play. "That was our best game of the season," said guard Ron Price, "If we would have played with that intensity all year, we would've been champs."

The Rockets ex1,1.ifn ..,/1ced their first defeat the next week as they fell victim to defending state champions, Southeast. Fumbles played a big part in the battle as Northeast lost four of five miscues. Tough running by Larsen and Curry helped Randee Johnson score the first touchdown from one yard out. Northeast also scored on a 49 yard pass from Johnson to Mike Hohbein. The game was played before 9,619 fans.

Bad luck seemed to trail the Rockets as they suffered another defeat in their next game at the hands of Grand Island 19-14. Trailing 19-7 at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Northeast came alive as Johnson hit Jeff Svoboda on a 13 yard TD pass. But any hopes of a comeback were stopped as two Rocket passes were intercepted late in the game.

A 27-12 win over · the Fremont Tigers the next week clinched a wild-card berth for the Rockets in the state championships. Although Northeast didn't complete a pass all · night, halfback Jim Prai scored on runs of 54 and five yards. It was Prai's first starting role of the season, and he rushed for 120 yards while replacing Curry who was out with a twisted ankle. Strong defense aided in the win as Jeff Svoboda sacked the Fremont quarterback and Ron Price recovered the fumble to set up one of Prai's touchdowns

A rare afternoon game set the stage for the state quarterfinal game against Omaha Northwest. After a fumble recovery by Doug Ayars in the first quarter, Johnson tossed a 35-yard touchdown pass to Svoboda. Switching to a veer offense in the second half, Jim Prai scored on a 14-yard dash to make the score 13-0. After a Northwest touchdown, Mike Larsen raced 11 yards around right end to score the final touchdown. "This game was won in the trenches," said Kent Walker. "We really wanted another shot at Grand Island or Southeast."

The team got their next shot at Grand Island, but it seemed to be more like the first time around. Randee Johnson scored the lone

Rocket touchdown as Northeast was eliminated from further play 19-6.

Ron Price summed up the season saying, "We had a good season, we played hard and we were only beaten by the number one and two teams."

Center Dan King, guard Ron Price and halfback Tom Curry were named to the all-city offensive team. Curry was named honorary offensive captain. Defensive end Jeff Svoboda, and cornerback Pat Neill were named to the all-city defensive team.

Curry was named to the first string Super-State team by the Lincoln Journal-Star, while Svoboda was named to first string defense. Randee Johnson was named quarterback on the second SuperState offensive unit. In the JournalStar All-State selections Curry was named to the first offense, while Svoboda was appointed to first defense. Randee Johnson was on the second team offense. Center Dan King earned honorable mention. In the Omaha World-Herald Al/State selection Svoboda was named to the first team tight end position along with Curry at halfback.

Reserves Win City Championship

"The team played good, and every player improved on his fundamentals, " stated reserve football coach Bill Story. The rocket reserves finished with a 7-1 record, the city title , and plenty of high hopes for a good season next year. The reserves only loss came to East 8-7.

Highlighting the Rockets season was the excellent play of some key individuals. Story mentioned many players including Bob McGrath, Emil Bloch , Scott Reed, and Gary Stepanek. "Scott Reed did a good job all year, and so did Jeff Montgomery, " stated Story in assessing the two quarterbacks.

Northeast opened the year with an 18-0 win over Southeast. Ken Dittenber scored all the Rocket points. The Rockets remained undefeated the second t i me out with an impressive 55-7 win over Hastings. Northeast then shutout Lincoln High 22-0, and defeated Southeast again, 6-0. The Rockets then suffered their only loss of the year, an 8-7 loss to East. Northeast led 7-2 until late in the game when East tossed a touchdown pass to seal the win. The Rockets rebounded though and defeated previously unbeaten Grand Island, 22-18 on the Islanders home field.

The Rockets were then scheduled to play Beatrice, but a conflict arose and Northeast substituted a game with Omaha Bryan which the Rockets won 34-8, "We really weren't ready for the Bryan game, " stated Story The Rockets then closed a successful season by nipping Fremont 14-6.

Sophs Have Disappointing Year

"The team beat themselves," stated sophomore head football coach Hank Williamsen. The sophomores posted a 3-4 mark, well below the undefeated marks of the previous two seasons.

"We started playing good, consistent football the last two games of the season, " commented Williamsen on the wins over Beatrice and Omaha Burke.

The Rockets started the season with a disappointing 6-0 loss to Southeast. "We didn't execute the basics," stated Williamsen. The Rockets went on to defeat Lincoln High, but then suffered three setbacks to Nebraska City, East, and Seward.

Mark Holt and Jim Lane were two outstanding players all year. The sophomores closed the season with

a 36-0 win over the Beatrice Orangemen, and a 38:-0 win over the Omaha Burke Bulldogs, to provide plenty of positive attitudes for the 1979 football season.

The Rocket sophomores lost some close ones, like a 12-0 loss to Nebraska City. Two blocked punts recovered in the end zone provided the margin of victory for Nebraska City. The sophomores also lost a close 13-12 decision to East, after leading 12-7.

"We had some poor meets, but it wasn 't due to lack of enthusiasm," stated sophomore Diane Smith when asked about the girls swim team. "Everyone pulled together and did their very best."

Although the Rockets had a disappointing 2-7 season, they qualified eight swimmers for state: Lori Lobeda , diving ; the medley relay quartet of Lauri Anderson, Toni Howard, Bonnie Bateman and Diane Smith, and the freestyle relay team of Debbi Bevins , Toni Howard, Laurie Anderson and Kim Sprier. Sprier substituted for an ailing Angie Smith

Second year girls swim coach Rob Wenstedt felt his team had a "super attitude throughout the season ."

Wenstedt praised the teams fourth place finish at t he Trans-Nebraska meet , where juni o r Toni Howard turned in sparkling performances. "I did good at Trans ," commented Howard , "the pre-season I spent at swim camp really helped me a lot. "

Wenstedt also felt that the Rockets battled a lack of experience all season, with only four seniors on the squad. "Senior Lori Lobeda scored consistently for us all season , and senior Bonnie Bateman swam consistently for us all season. "

Praise was also given to Diane Smith who was the sole member of the Rocket squad to grab a/I-city honors "Diane probably did the best job for us all year ," concluded Wenstedt

Golfers Gain Experience

"The overall season was disappointing," stated head coach Jack Mueller reviewing the boys golf season. "We did quite well in our dual meets, but failed to produce in the invitationals and in districts." The team finished last in four of the invitationals, but won two dual meets with Beatrice and placed eighth in the Southeast Invitational.

"Corey West shot well all year, and John Geist shot well at times," commented Mueller. After defeating Beatrice in a mid season dual, the Rocket golfers slipped to finish last of next-to-last in the rest of their meets.

The Rocket varsity shot a 337 at the first Southeast Invitational for the best Invitational team score of the season. Junior standout Corey West shot a 73 in that meet for the best individual 18-hole score of the season.

Although the varsity golfers did not perform up to expectations, the reserves shot surprisingly well. "The reserves did much better than expected, and they were consistent most of the year," stated Mueller. John Wagner, Mike Dolan and Vic Weber were cited as outstanding reserves.

"We need practice to excel," stated fifth year tennis coach Jim Rathe. The varsity tennis team, consisting of all seniors, had a season record of 5-6. Although the figures show a losing season, losses were to teams that were among the best in the state. "We didn't lose to anyone that we shouldn't have," said Rathe.

The Rocket netters lost their first four matches against Fremont, East, Southeast and Grand Island, but bounced back to beat Beatrice 5-4. The match at Beatrice was a tough one and the Rockets were without varsity player Dave Joe. "It was late, dark and very cold. We were down in the second set but came back to win 6-3," said Rathe.

Northeast also beat Lincoln High 9-0 and 5-4, but lost later in the season to top ranked Pius 7-2

The team placed ninth in the Fremont Invitational, sixth in the TransNebraska meet and tied for tenth place out of 21 teams at state.

Spikers Place Third at Trans

"We had strength as a team," was the response from first year varsity coach Sandi Genrich when asked about a team stand-out. Genrich did cite Kristie Nelson as being a top defensive net player, but stressed that the team played best when they worked as a whole unit.

The varsity volleyball team started off the season by downing Norfolk, Beatrice, and Fremont but lost to their next three opponents, Lincoln High, East, and Fremont. At the end of the season, the girls proved their strength at the Trans-Nebraska meet.

"At Trans we played well as a team, one person worked for another," Genrich said. Northeast placed third out of seven teams.

The Rockets used a "multiple offense" strategy this season and felt their method of a "double-block at the net" was most effective This effectiveness was seen when Northeast had two of the best five blockers in the state.

As a first year coach, Genrich felt the two biggest problems were having a group of girls adjust to a new coach. "With volleyball being a fall

sport this is hard to do, you just have no time to chat in the hall before the season begins," Genrich said.

The second problem, according to Genrich, was that Lincoln schools play each other too many times. This makes it impossible to get a wild card berth because everyone keeps losing to the same teams over and over again.

The Rockets finished their regular season with five wins and four losses, finished third at the TransNebraska meet, lost to East and placed third at LPS, then lost to East in the district tournament.

Reserves Win LPS, Finish 8-1

For a team with very little knowledge and experience in the game of volleyball, the reserve volleyball team showed no signs of faltering as they finished the season with 8 wins and 1 loss.

The reserves only loss was in the first game of the season, and first year reserve volleyball coach LaJean Jensen said, "This (the loss) was more of a learning experience rather than a disappointment."

That must have been true, as the reserves won their next 8 games, including a win over East High, which was undefeated and had never been beaten by a reserve volleyball team.

Coach Jensen cited Ellen Kreifels as the team standout. "Ellen was a good setter and was very consistent in games, which made the offense most effective."

To finish their season, the reserves brought home the first place trophy at the Lincoln Public Schools Tournament. This win was the toughest due to a two week practice period before the meet.

"We had bad practice days, but this has been the best group I have

ever coached and I feel no problems were encountered, " Jensen said.

Lauri Thompson sums up the season saying "We started out slow, but we improved as the season went on. Miss Jensen is a great coach and taught us all a lot. "

Gymnasts Win District

Despite numerous injuries the boy's gymnastics team experienced a sparkling season. The gymnasts posted a shining 5-1 dual meet record and finished fourth in the state.

"I was pleased with our results considering injuries and illnesses," stated second year coach Carl Walin. One of these injuries was to senior captain Dan Kapeller. Early in the season Kapeller injured his ankle, then in mid-season suffered a concussion when he hit his head on the horizontal bar during practice. "The concussion didn't bother me as much as my ankle," said Kapeller. "I couldn't tumble when I hurt my ankle." Craig Alberti, a junior standout for the Rockets, was also forced to sit out for a while, as he was inflicted with a virus . " I was moving along pretty good till I caught the virus," noted Alberti.

The Rockets overcame their setbacks by the end of the season. The gymnasts won the district meet after being beaten the previous two years by less than one point. "I was happy," reflected Kapeller. "After coming close the last two years , it felt good to win by 15 points."

Strong scores in vaulting by Kapeller and fellow senior Gary Knaub boosted the gymnasts to a fourth place finish in the state meet.

"Most Improved Team" - Rogge

"This team has improved more than any other team I 've coached, " stated fifth year cross-country coach Bill Rogge. " Our times went down in every meet this season. "

The young harriers were hampered early in the season by injuries. Senior Jeff Bachman was out with a sore knee, junior John Rich was sick with a virus, while junior Randee Price also nursed a knee injury. "I had a poor attitude when I was injured," said Price. "I didn't have the spirit I should've."

The Rockets, with only three returning lettermen , experienced a tough regular season , not placing higher than fourth in a major meet. "We did the best we could with what we had, " noted Senior Dave Cooke. "What with John being sick and Bachman hurting, I guess we did alright."

The highlight of the regular season came at the Omaha Bryan Invitational where Northeast finished fourth out of 23 teams. Alan Young and Roger Corey finished tenth and eleventh respectively in the junior division of the race, while Jeff Bachman and Jeff Hardesty finished eighth and twelfth in the senior division. "We really did well at Bryan, " added Cooke.

Early in the season, the runners set their goal at going to the state meet. Only the top three teams in a district are allowed to go to state.

The harriers accomplished their goal as they finished third at districts and John Rich finished sixth overall with a time of 12:54. Rich 's clocking was the best time all season for a Northeast runner. "We reached an emotional high at districts," commented Rogge.

" I don't feel we ran bad at the state meet, " said Rogge , "considering two of our runners (Rich and Alan Young) were feeling ill. " Northeast finished ninth in the twelve team field , defeating Westside , Scottsbluff, and Omaha Gross. The state meet marked the fifth state appearance for Northeast in five years.

Roundballers Start Fast

The 1978-79 boys' varsity basketball team got off to a fast start, then finished 10-9. The Rockets downed seven of their first nine opponents before hitting a five-game losing streak. "We were in a slump," stated three-year veteran Don Poor. "The Lincoln High game set us back, they really took it to us and that got us down psychologically."

Starting with the Lincoln High defeat, the Rockets fell to East, North Platte, Grand Island, and Beatrice before pulling out of their slump. Northeast surprised the defending state champions, East High, by racing to a 31-29 halftime lead, but couldn't hang on to win. Lincoln High and Grand Island proved to be the only teams to dominate the Rockets during their losing streak. North Platte won by one point in overtime, and the Beatrice game wasn't decided until the final 20 seconds.

The cagers pulled out of their losing streak with wins over the Fremont Tigers and the Ralston Rams. In the Fremont game Northeast took a 23-20 lead into the locker room with them at halftime. Scoring was even in the third quarter and the Rockers led by four at the end of the period. The fourth quarter proved to be an exciting one as the Tigers took advantage of their height and tied the score at 45 at the end of regulation play. Senior forward Randee Johnson hit a free three and junior Tom Schroer added another bucket to give Northeast a threepoint lead. Fremont scored one more basket to make it close but the Rockets held on to capture a 48-47 victory in overtime. "Fremont and Ralston were two really good games," Poor said.

Seniors Randee Johnson with 186 and Jim Prai with 133 were other Rockets in triple figures. Senior Mike Crooks had the highest field goal percentage of 67%. As a team, Northeast shot 44% from the field, and 58% from the free throw line.

This season marked Head Coach Ed Johnson's 30th season as Northeast basketball coach. His career mark stands at 412-155. Northeast's all time record after this -season is 533-204.

Reserves Win City Title

"We had a super season, because we had teamwork on and off the floor," stated junior forward Roger Mundt. This years version of the Rocket reserves finished 13-2, winning 11 straight before falling to Beatrice.

During the course of the year the reserves used team depth to roll up their impressive season total.

In the opener, a rare game took place. Only sophomores suited up against South Sioux City. It was to no avail to the opponents as Northeast crushed the Cardinals 59-41. The rest. rves then rof/E!d on to defeat Kearney 61-49, Omaha Northwest 45-42, Columbus 49-45, then they ripped Hastings 52-32 and Omaha Benson 67-37 in a span of two nights.

The Rockets' first intra-city contest ended up in yet another victory as the Rockets prevailed 5246 over Lincoln High. Omaha Bryan and Norfolk were the next two victims and the Bryan Bears fell 48-43 and the Norfolk Panthers went down 46-44.

"The highlight of the season was beating East and winning the city title," stated Mundt. The reserves did just that as East fell 50-45. The Rockets went on to crush Grand Island 75-55, before losing back to back games with Beatrice and Fremont. The reserves then closed the year on a high note by nipping Ralston 51-49 and smashing Southeast 53-34.

The reserves were led in the scoring department by Kirk Holscher who pumped in 168 while junior Jeff Montgomery added 142.

Slow Start Hurts Sophomores

The Rocket sophomores this year started slow but finished fast to post a 5-5 season record.

In their first outing, the Crete Cardinals proved to be too much as the Cardinals won 49-38. Intra-city rival East was up next, and a speedy Spartan squad took advantage of Northeast's cold shooting to post a 57-34 win over the sophs. The Rockets' next two games were the most exciting of the year.

Against Lincoln High, Greg Cecava hit a shot with one second left in overtime to give the first year Rockets a 42-41 victory. The next game was decided much the same way, except the hero was Randy Hoover as he hit a short jumper with one tick left on the clock to give Northeast a 41-39 win.

The sophs then dropped decisions to Pius X, 46-39, and East, 38-33 before dropping Fremont 4946. Southeast was the next opponent, and the Knights converted Rocket mistakes into a 69-51 win. The Rockets came back and got on the winning track with a 65-48 shell-

ing of Lincoln High.

In what head coach Rex Mercer described as the "best game we'd played all year," the sophs nipped York, 54-51. A strong Beatrice team proved to be too much for the Rockets as the Orangemen won, 6351. The Rockets captured a win in the last game of the season with a 53-39 win over the Waverly Vikings.

Varsity Finishes Eighth in State

" I felt we d i d pretty well considering we had three sophomore starte r s," stated vars i ty basketball guard Linda Shepard. " We had a great year, but we had many players who lacked experience. "

In the opener, they nipped South Sioux City 50-49 in overtime , but it was a costly win because they lost the services of senior guard Mary Prochaska for a number of games

The loss of Mary showed as the Rockets dropped four out of the next five games. The Rockets placed 6th in the Lady Husker Invitational , losing to York and Omaha Mercy and defeating Norris Prochaska returned to the lineup , and the Rockets excelled They rolled over Hastings , Southeast, and Beatrice. They then nipped Lincoln H i gh 40-36 in overtime , and got by Columbus 42-35.

The Rockets kept roll i ng , shelling East 55-37 and North Platte 64-35 , extending their winning streak to six. Number one rated Grand Island was up next, and the Islanders proved worthy of being the State Champions as they defeated Northeast 4538. The Rockets returned to the winning side of things with a revenge win over Omaha Burke , the school that won the State Title in

1978, and defeated Northeast i n the 1978 State Tourney. The Rockets beat Fremont 59-48 , as Cindy Jelinek pumped in a school record 30 points for Northeast.

After downing Papillion , the girls lost a tough game to Omaha Marian 54 - 44 on the Crusaders home floor District action was next, and the Rockets played East in the first round The Spartans hoped to be i mproved over the first meeting , but Northeast proved otherwise as they bombed the Spartans 51-35

In the district final against Lincoln High , the varsity had to come back from a 27-23 deficit to tie the game at 27-27 and send it into overtime. Peggy Loos hit a shot and was fouled with Lincoln High leading 3230 in overtime Peggy added the free throw to give the Rockets a 33-32 overtime thriller, and give Northeast a chance at the state title " I felt for the second time we had the greatest luck any team could have ," stated Shepard after the Lincoln High game. Unfortunately , the Rockets luck didn ' t hold out as Omaha Marian held off a late Northeast rally to defeat the Lady Rockets 32 - 30 in the first round of the state tourney .

Reserves Learn Fundamentals

The 1978-79 girls reserve basketball team experienced a see saw season as they posted a 8-7 record Coach Jim Campbell attributes the up and down season to the lack of consistency and leadership " We tried to play as many people as possible at different positions , and it 's hard to get consistent play with sophomores who are just learning how to play."

This year 's team was made up of seven sophomores , and only five returning juniors Although it took a while to adjust and gain confidence , the Rockets started the season off by downing South Sioux City 40-21 , losing to Kearney and Millard, but bouncing back to beat Hastings 45-29

Campbell feels the toughest opponent faced all year was Omaha Marian " Marian was better than I had expected and we didn't play quite as good as / felt we should have. They really had the mental edge over us." Marian beat the Rocket cagers 54-34

Renee Morrissey, returning junior, was cited as an all-around team stand out. "Renee was very consistent and always reliable , ready whenever we needed her."

Tankers Excel in Great Season

"A lot of hard work, strong commitments, plus some outstanding coaching," commented coach Rob Wennstedt on the boys swim team's success this year. Wennstedt also noted that not only practice during the regular season but pre-season and summer workouts were helpful.

The Rocket tankers started the season by placing third in the Lincoln High relays, then defeated Norfolk, McCook, Columbus, Hastings and North Platte. They then placed 6th in the Ralston Invitational and lost to East High, but came back to beat Grand Island at home.

In the last regular season meet against Lincoln High, the Rockets had to come from behind to win. It was a big meet, as the team wanted an intra-city win. Northeast dominated the last events and beat the Links 92-80.

Coach Wennstedt felt the team had good coverage on all events this year, except at the beginning of the season. "We had some weak spots early in the season bqt we put our sophomores in and they really pulled through for us."

Mike Lee seconds this feeling. "At the beginning of the season we weren't too good. I guess we had a show start. Towards the end we really worked, we shaved down for state and improved psychologically." Mike feels his senior year was his best as he placed in the top six at the state meet in the Butterfly event.

The Rockets placed fourth in the Trans-Nebraska swim meet and had Shawn Burley, Brad Foster, Gus Hitz, Mike Lee, John Neal and Mark Vannorsdall qualify for the state meet where Northeast finished in eighth place.

Undefeated Gymnasts Take State

"It was a team effort, and we never could have done so well and gone so far without everyone's hard work , " was the joint response given by Kim Grabowski and Terri Furman about their 10-0 girls gymnastics record and its first place finish at State.

This year's gymnastics team was paced by junior Grabowski and sophomore Furman, but was strongly backed by seniors Beatrice Hernandez and Lynne Bush who placed third in district in the vault, Vicki Pester, junior, (two eighth places at districts) and sophomore Karyn Dewey, who took fourth place in the district al/around competition.

This year 's team was most leary of the Millard Indians, who were

ranked second i n the state behind the Rockets. "We were very close at districts and k n ew if we didn 't hit in the last round we would not win, " said Grabowsk i "We pulled together, scored high, and won 128-125 over Mi /lard. "

There were no major problems that hampered the Rockets and only one major injury. During the East High meet, senior Jean Fag/er landed incorrectly in her floor exercise routine and tore the l i gamen ts in her ankle. She was out for the remainder of the season.

The team as a whole was noted for working t he best under heavy pressure. They thrived on large meets , like the Trans-Nebraska meet. The girls proved this by placing first in a field of seven with a score of 124.95.

Underclassmen Lead Grapplers

Underclassmen comprised the majority of the 1978-79 wrestling team. Sophomores and juniors filled all but two of the twelve weight classes. "I thought the underclassmen performed well," stated senior Jeff Bachman. "But I think the leadership came from the seniors."

Junior Mike Ryan was the leading wrestler for the Rockets this year, suffering only one defeat to Omaha Tech's Paul MacNeill in the semifinals of the state tournament. Battling the flu and trying to retain strength all through the state meet, Ryan had the unfortunate experience of passing out during the second round of his semi-final match.

Injuries didn't hurt the Rockets until the state meet. Sophomore Dave Base didn't report on opening day because of illness, and forfeited his match. This, along with Ryan's setback, were reasons for a disappointing state meet.

One of the toughest losses of the season came at the hands of Lincoln High 21-22. The meet wasn 't decided until the last match when heavyweight Roger Wilke was pinned. "I think the most dissapointing moment for us this season was losing the city title to Lincoln High," added Bachman.

Although the season was one ot ups and downs, the young grapplers reached their peak at the district meet. The five wrestlers who qualified for the state tournament were: 98 pound Jeff Bruns , 112 pound Dale Fountain, 126 pound Dave Base, 132 pound Mike Ryan, and 145 pound Jeff Bachman.
