High school isfull of opportunities. You can, of course, receive an education. You can also participate in school activities such as Student Council, FBIA, or athletics.
Perhaps one of the greatest opportunities high school has to offer is the chance to meet new people and make new friends.
Friends are important. You can corifide in them your deepest, darkest secrets. You can share all of your hopes and dreams with a friend. You can tum to afriend when no one else seems to care.
Friendships were important to most Northeast students.
For sophomore Will Hamouz, havingfriends
Pep Club members find it fun to stick was an important part of life. together at all times.
"if a person doesn't have friends, then that person doesn't have much of anything at all," Hamouz said.
For a senior, graduation brings about many changes. One of those changes is leaving some of the bestfriends behind. While not allfriends follow the same path, the memories remain.
"Ifeel a lot of sadness in thefact that I have to leave my friends and face the possibility of never seeing them again," senior Steph Grant said. "But, I'll remember the good times we had."
Carrie Smith, another senior, had df[ferent feelings towards graduation.
"It's going to be sad, but I can't wait to get out and be on my own," Smith said. "I'll treasure my friendships and memories forever."
The students at Northeast will always remember the friends they made during high school. Somefriends will stay closeforever and some will slip away as time goes on. Friends may Jade away, but they are neverforgotten.
"A friend is someone you can do things with, someone you like, and someone you
enjoy being with. A friend is also someone you can confide in."
-Stephanie Grant
Many students found it difficult to manage money, especially during the school year.
Large amounts of money are spent each year on school-related activities. A few examples are lunch and activity tickets, dances, yearbooks, pens, pencils, paper, candy bars, and the list goes on and on.
Junior Rhonda Frahm estimates she spends about $250 each year on school-related items. "But, it's worth it," Frahm insists.
For seniors, the list gets even longer. The items include senior photos, memory books, graduation announcements, thank-you cards, caps and gowns, and class rings.
For many seniors who are involved with clubs and other activities at Northeast, the list continues. Since you are expected to buy uniforms and musical instruments for some groups, it can become very expensive.
According to Jenny Lobb (a band member), "Buying ribbons and taking clarinet lessons really adds up to the cost of being in band."
Just when it may have seemed the costs were decreasing for students , along comes the weekend.
Weekend expenses include: gas for the car, dinner, a movie, new clothes for Monday~ football and basketball games. And, of course, all the parties that charge 9-dmission.
The expenses mentioned still only hit on a small portion of the costs of being a student.
Senior Sean Strough probably put it best when he said, "I always thought my senior year was supposed to be the best, not the most expensive."
"An expense is something everyone faces, someday."
-Rick Shaw
Although optional, buying a class ring was an accepted way of getting rid of anywhere from $ 70$ 200, depending on the quality of the ring.
Shoes varied in price and style, but they were a necessary part of every student's wardrobe.
Listening to that favorite cut on an album was a favorite way to spend time. The albums were not cheap, and as the collections grew, so did the expense.
5/Eyes On Costs
The fashion scene included sweaters , polos, and other clothing accessories that caused students to dip into the pocketbook. An expense of many students at Northeast is their beloved auto.What word has 13 letters, starts with an "E" and is associated with both friends and fun? That's easy. ENTERTAINMENT! But, just what did Northeast students do for entertainment?
Movies were always a popular choice, with comedies topping the list of favorites. Movies· like "Red Dawn," 'The Wild Life," and "Revenge of the Nerds" were all popular with many students. It seemed the only problem with movies was the price. Sophomore Amie Nutzman commented, "I think the price is much too high to pay. I mean, students don't have that much money to spend, and who wants to pay $3.50just to see a movie?"
Despite the price, though, Junior Bobbi Gossard continued to see movies. "It gives you an opportunity to go out and be with your friends," Gossard said.
School athletic events were also a good way to keep entertained and show your school spirit at the same time. Football, basketball, volleyball, and gymnastics were all popular with Northeast students. They were also quite economical. Northeast activity tickets cost a mere $9, and enabled students to attend athletic events without paying thefee. Sports seemed to be as exciting to watch as they werefor the participants.
Finally, many students just decided to take it easy and entertain themselves at home. Cinem~, Showtime, and HBO were all good alternatives to regular primetime television. The movie stations showed recent movies at afraction of the cost. MlV {music television) showed recent rock videos of such pe,jormers as Van Halen, Bruce Springsteen, ·Chicago, and Prince. if you weren't fortunate enough to have MTv, at least you could listen to the music. KFRX, Q 102, and KISS radio were all popular stations.
These are only a few of the many things Northeast students did for entertainment. Many students also attended parties or went on dates. But, no matter how you kept yourself entertained, it all meant only one thing to Northeast students_FUN/
Movies were a favorite pasttime on weekends , and East Park Ill was a good source.
East Park Mall-A great place to shop
Food Village is a popular place for many students to eat either on weekends or during lunch.
Arby's, on O street, provides a good place for various students on the weekends
One way many students eased the burden of the high expenses of the school year was getting a job.
Many students found employment at fast food restaurants, grocery stores, and clothing stores,just to name afew. Burger King, McDonald's, Runza, HyVee, Richman
Gordman, Sears, and K-Mart were just a Jew of the many businesses in Lincoln that had Northeast students on their payroll.
A majority of students start work during their junior and senior years. It is a timefor understanding what the real world is like, and a chance to earn some money to help defray the cost of being a teenager.
For Jeanne Wicken, a senior, working also provided her with a chance to meet new people.
"New friends and extra money makes the day go better," commented Cindy Wichman. "I think teenagers should have jobs so they get the experience for their future employment," said Mary Hoppes, a senior who works at Burger King.
Although the hours are long, and the next day seems longer, many students held down part-time and some full time jobs. It was the consensus of most students that having ajob was almost a necessity.
"A job is a means of preparedness for the future of many students."
-Jill Bartzatt
Pony tails, bobby socks, saddle shoes, and bell bottoms. Hula hoops, the limbo, and the twist. All of these are remnants of the past. They are a few things that were really "boss" or "cool" and they remain in our memory.
Things have changed now, though. Girls cut off their pony tails and boys threw away their bell bottoms and traded them for more fashionable styles. As for the limbo and the twist, they have been replaced and are now considered passe.
Changes in fashion are common, and occur often. What may be in 1 style and all the rage one year is silly and outdated the next.
For the 1984-85 school year, the "in" look included: mini-skirts, walking shorts, forenza sweaters, dangling earrings, cropped pants and two-tone hair. For some students, fashion meant "the wilder the better."
Junior Mitch Hendricks commented, "I don't like looking like everybody else. I want to look separate from other people. I wear what I want to wear, not what everybody else would like me to wear."
Individuality and creativity also proved to be quite important to the fashion-conscientous student.
"I like to be original, but I still want to be in style," sophomore Suzy
Schelby said. "I also like to find a lot of different ways to wear the clothes that I have."
Popular clothing styles for women ranged from casual denim pants to dressy Angora sweaters. Stacy Chandler, an employee for the Brass Buckle in East Park, said "Denim is very popular for both men and women this season. Sweaters are becoming increasingly more popular with men and the oversized shirts and pants are still in style with the .women."
Whatever your style, whether it be wild and crazy or simple and conservative, the fashion scene had something for everyone.
"Fashion is an extension of one's personality."
-Karen WIXsonSuzi Heckathorn is happy in her adidas and jeans jacket.
Spirit. How does one view spirit?
For some students at Northeast, spirit meant going down to Seacrest Field on a briskfall evening to help cheer the football team on to a victory. For others, it meant seeing an action-packed basketball game held in the Northeast gym. And stillfor others, spirit meant making locker signs encouraging the athletes to go for the win.
Spirit was also seen in the pep rallies that were
held in the North Gym. Pep rallies consisted of skits, class competition, cheers, and of course the band to keep the students entertained.
Finally, Spirit was also seen in the parents of Northeast students. Parents played an integral part in promoting school spirit. Their regular attendance at the athletic events, and their constant support and encouragement helped make Northeast athletics the best they could possibly be.

Just the way it rolls off your tongue is enough to make anyone hate school. Summer is a carefree time when troubles are Jew and good times abundant. No more homework or rising early to get to class when summer is here. Oh, summer is indeed a cherished time for Northeast students.
Of course, there were drawbacks to summer. What about the sunburn you suffered while waterskiing? Or all the money you spent on your new swimsuit only to find that your best friend has one exactly like it? And, don't forget the fact that you won't see any of those wonderful teachers that managed to brighten your day. Despite all of that, summer still remains dear to our hearts and in the back of our minds during those cold winter months. Ahhhhh, summer it's truly a sight -for sore eyes.
''Summertime stands for good times and a lot of fun, but it's always over before you get to th " em.

The high school senior year. It can be described in many different ways. Ways that can be as difJerent as night and day. Some may describe it as the end. The end of a long line of 13 years of hard classes, homework, and nagging teachers. To others, the senior year is just the beginning.
The senior year can be a time for starting new adventures, embarking upon newfriendships, moving onward to new challenges, and beginning to make those long-awaited dreams come true.
The senior year can also be characterized as a high point in life. It's a time when no worries should be present. It's a time full of opportunities, and best of all, it's a timefor seniors to take their tum at lockering onfirstjloor.
Some seniors have reasons for not looking forward to their final year at Northeast. Some of those reasons may be the sad feeling that occur when seniors finally realize "this is it." Realizing that once that walk across the stage is finished, graduation night is complete, and a lot of things will now change.
That change may be good, sometimes, but not always. Just the thought of saying good-bye to friends is naturally disturbing to a person. But, it's not just the friends. To some, it's the family that will receive the good-byes when it's time to move away and the graduate tries to set up his/her own life. Trying to "make it" alone can be a lonely expe rience.
To others, the entire senior yem· is hard to see pass. The high school dances, seeing good friends every day, and the party-ing on Friday and Saturday nights after a hard week's work will soon disappear.
Another difference in defining the senior year would be the struggle between how relaxing it was, yet how much hard work the senior put into the year. There are those who slide by their final year, thinking the previous 12 years was a big buildup. That:
13th year is going to be the celebration year, and -therefore it is taken in stride, one day at a time. Then, there are others who have neve-r worked harder than during their senior year. This is the chance to make it all happen. Scholarships, college· acceptances, and broader horizons can all come true, depending on the status of that final year.
Though the words Senior Year bring many thoughts to mind, there is one thing that the majority agree upon. The · memories of that 13 year climb will stay with us much longer than the time it took to get to the Senior Year.
, Thirteen years ago, we were learning how to finger paint, tying shoelaces, and trying to tell time. Now, some seniors are painting on walls, and many don't even wear shoelaces. And, when it comes time Jot curfews, some still don't know how to tell time.

Being a junior. How does one define that?
Not very easy, huh?
Well, many can describe their junior year of high school. They have a familiar feeling with the school, the faculty, the rules, and their peers.
It's very comfortable knowing what to expect and what not to expect. Although many juniors can't wait , they've enjoyed their second year in high school.
New friends were found , different classes were passed, and juniors can now look forward to their big senior year.

''The U.S. has enough food to supply Ethiopia and the starving people in our own country, but who i• going to pay for the problem?

David Wattjes and Charlie C.nlon put all their energy into whatever they're doing. Even if it's just hanging around."I feel that a longer lunch would be better because those people who go out to lunch need time to eat and get back to school in time.

-Charlie

Bender"I do not feel atudenta need a longer lunch period. Lincoln Public School• i• planning on lengthening the school day by making each claas an hour long, anyway. If we were to be given a longer lunch we would get out of school that much later. The time allotted for lunch will never aatiafy everyone. Some people need only 10 minute• to eat, while othen need an hour to go to a restaurant. who uaually go to nearby would probably, if given more time, head for an eating place that i• farther away, and they still don't have enough time.

THE NEVER-ENDING PARKING LOT PROBLEM. HOW CAN IT BE SOLVED AND WHY I& PARKING SUCH A PROBLEM? •••••••
"I feel that aome people either have no common aenae when it come• to parking or they have no reapect or concern of people trying to get in and out of the upper part of the parking lot. I feel that the achool ahould tow an:, car blocking other can without warning their ownen."
-Dave
Bile"I think that aome people can not help it where they park. There reall:, ian't enough parking •tall• u it ia. People reall:, don't want to park all the way down the parking lot. They'll Juat have to park the beat way the:, can."
-Sharon

"I think new line• ahould be painted ao everyone would park the aame way, inatead of all over. That way, atudenta could get in and out of the lot with no Amo, maybe the tennia could be moved farther weat ao that apace could be uaed for more parking."

It was August 24. 1984. It was a hot summer day. So hot, you could have fried an egg on the pavement. It was the kind of day when things just aren't normal.
Then. THEY came. THEY came in masses, by the hundreds, slithering down the halls. froth sliding down their chins. THEY formed a group as students stopped and stared. Their eyes were big as saucers. Oh Nol It's it's THE SOPHOMORES!
Of course. this story isn't true, but that's the way many upperclassmen perceive sophomores. They were new to the school, the new kids on the block. Their presence seemed almost alien
Sophomore Karen Wixson commented, "I was really uneasy my first day here at Northeast. I felt like I didn't belong, but I think I've adjusted pretty well since then."
Those early days of timidness and apprehension soon passed as the sophomores became more involved. Pep Club, Student Council, Northeastern and Band were just a few of the organizations that included sophomores. Their participation in these extracurricular activities helped break the ice and enabled them to ease into the high school scene.
For sophomore .Michelle Beck, the involvement in an actMty was important. "Being in gymnastics helped me to get acquainted with some of the people. and it made changing schools easier for me."
Whatever the reason, most sophs agreed that the more active they were, the easier they fit in with the rest of Northeast High School.

"It's lonely at the top."
That old saying fits quite appropriately when you're a sophomore and your locker is on third floor. The majority of sophomores at Northeast lockered on the third floor during the 1984-85 school year. However, a few lucky ones were privileged enough to have lockers on second floor. Very few sophomores lockered on first floor with the seniors.
Most sophomores didn't like the fact that their lockers were on the third floor. Many stated that it was "a pain to go up so far," while others complained that "none of my classes are on the third floor, why should my locker be there?"
Sophomore Valerie Pollema said, "I hate running up and down the stairs just to go to my locker and get my books."
Pollema's thoughts seemed to be in line with the general attitude towards the idea of lockering on third floor.
Another sophomore, Kelly Will, commented, "Running all the way up to the third floor in between classes is quite an inconvenience for me because I have only one class up there and going up there all the time gets old pretty fast."

Theresa Peterson was first inspired to play the flute at the tender ag e of 10. The sophomore band member began developing her musical talent as a fourth grader at Bethany Elementary Peterson said the idea of playing the flute was pretty much her own idea , but that her parents were very supportive of her intentions Peterson said she thought very highly of the instrumental music program at Northeast, saying, " It's a good program because there are a lot of people, and I think that helps a lot. "
Dawn Mertz
Kim Meyer
Troy Michaud
She also had nothing but praise for Northeast's instrumental music director, Jeff Klintberg. "I think Mr. Klintberg is really good, because he cares a lot about all of the people in band, and not just one select group ," Peterson said

The sophomore flutist said she believed there were both advantages and disadvantages to being in the Northeast band. "I think being in band gives you a good knowledge of music, and it lets you be involved in something. " However, Peterson also said there were definite disadvantages to being in the band , especially during the marching season when the group goes through gruelling morning practices and the heat of late summer and early fall Nebraska weather.
Besides playing the flute, Peterson also participates in track as well as softball during the summer. However, not all of her time was devoted to sports due to the fact that she attended an All-State band camp as well as the mandatory band camp held at Northeast. Peterson ' s future plans will depend on whether or not she receives a music scholarship. "If I get a scholarship , I'll major in music, but if not, I'll probably major in some other area,' '. she said.

What becomes of Theresa ' s flute playing remains to be seen. Regardless of what happens, Peterson said she will always cherish her band experience in her first year of high school. " Playing the flute made me feel good about myself because I know that there' s something I can do really well ."

For Brad Richardson, basketball is a way of life. The 6'5" sophomore has been playing basketball ever since his dad got him started at the age of 8. Richardson said he participated in other sports, such as football, baseball and track when he was younger. However, he turned to basketball exclusively.
Mark Wiegert
Paul Wiese
Brian Wilkins
"I enjoyed basketball so much, that I wanted to devote all of my time to it," Richardson said.
The dedication to basketball earned Richardson a spot on the 1984-85 Northeast varsity basketball team, quite an accomplishment for any player. But, the fact that Richardson is only a sophomore makes it even more impressive.
"It was a weird feeling," Richardson said about making the squad. "I was wondering if I would be accepted, so it made me feel good."
Kelly Will

To keep his basketball skills sharp, the sophomore cager attends summer basketball camps. During the summer before his sophomore year, Richardson attended camps at Hastings, Nebraska Wesleyan, and Northeast High. He also played on a Junior Olympic team last summer.
According to Richardson, his future plans will hopefully include a scholarship and a good education at a prestigious university. More importantly though, is that he enjoy himself while playing basketball. "That's the most important thing," Richardson said. " Because if I can't have fun while playing ball, I'd rather not play."

This year ' s Candlelight was another success, despite what some students thought was a lack of cooperation from the Northeast administration The Candlelight committe was unable to sell tickets to the dance or advertise the event, since the administration determined that Candlelight was not a Northeast-sponsored activity
Even without the added revenue that might have come from selling tickets in the school building, the Candlelight committee was able to raise enough money to have the dance. Methods of raising money included selling candy , bear pins and a car wash
The music this year was again provided by " Sounds Unlimited" at 1 airport Holiday Inn ballroom.

" Being in the Marching Band can be a lot of hard work, but it can also be lots of fun, " commented sophomore member Dennis Champoux, " especially when you receive superior ratings ."
Indeed , Marching Band was a great deal of work. Not only did members have to attend a mandatory summer clinic to learn the fundamentals of marching , they also were required to attend morning practices at Northeast.
The morning practices were a part of the marching experience that most members would just as soon forget. Practices started at 7: 15 every morning until the end of football season
For band director Jeff Klintberg , the year was successful. " This year has been a lot of fun. The kids have a good attitude, and they' re confident of their abilities, " Klintberg said
Nobody summed the year up better than junior Lindy Merritt. "It was a fantastic year ," Merritt said. " It was worth every ounce of effort we put into it. "

The Northeast Stage Band is a small group of very talented musicians whose primary purpose is playing jazz-type music
Under the directions of Jeff Klintberg , the stage band has received awards and positive comments from all types of competitions
The stage band performs for school-oriented functions such as the annual soup supper , the Honors Coffee , and the Rock Show That's not all the band does , however.
The group also plays at various junior highs and elementary schools across the city. Also , trips were made to Iowa and Kansas City for competitions
The criteria for being a stage band member is very tough. A student must have the knowledge of interpret ing music as well as being able to improvise
Sophomore trombone player Jim Koch commented, " Stage band lost three senior trombone players last year , so that gave me the opportunity to try out. With a lot of practice and luck, I made it. "
Koch said the group is fortunate to have Klintberg as its directo r. " He ' s good enough to be in a professional band ," Koch said of Klintberg , " and he really d ee <: a good job as a director. "
Director Jeff' Klintberg introduces the groupAnother year of orchestra proved to be a successful year, but the big event didn 't come until the end of the year. That trip was to Kansas City to give a concert at Worlds of Fun " It should be a good time ," Rod Machacek said.
According to Brian Svoboda , " Orchestra was fun , exciting , and an education. Ifs always fun because it gives us a chance to p lay music that we enjoy Despite the fact that attendance at orchestra concerts is low, we still enjoy the concerts , and the opportunities we get to play for large audiences , such as in the school musical. "
" Orchestra gives us an opportunity to play classical ;nusic. We ' re going to get to go to Kansas City , and that is a trip that has been missing for the last two years. So , that adds more excitement ," Mark Dale said
Although a majority of the students take orchestra because of their love for classical music , there are a few who take it for a new experience, such as Amy Clark.
" This is my first year ," Clark said, " and I got to meet new people , and I get to go on a trip, which is just what I've earned. I don ' t really get into that classical stuff, but orchestra is a fun experience despite that. "
After the band fin ishes its marching for football games and competitions , the band splits up to form two different bands , the Concert Band and the Symphonic Band Playing ability and class schedules determine which group a student will join.
Concert Band is made up primarily of sophomores , however some juniors and seniors are included in the band. Symphonic Band , which is more selective , is generally made up of the more advanced juniors and seniors. A few students have room in their schedules to become members o f both the Concert and Symphonic bands , but they may switch instruments for variety
One aspect members seem to enjoy about Concert and Symphonic bands is the change of pace it gives them from the March ing Band Concert Band member Scott Davis commented , " Marching Band can get a little boring toward the end of the season Sw itching to Concert Band kind of broke the monotony It's a class where I feel I can relax a little bit. "
The music that the two bands play differs greatly from Marching Band music.
" The music (in Symphon ic and Concert ) is definitely much more of a challenge for the kids ," said director Jeff Klintberg " It's different in the sense that it's not the usual pop tunes that we play in Marching Band. It's good music literature , which develops fundamentals and improves technique. "

Once again , the largest singing group at Northeast , Concert Choir , completed another successful year. Despite having a large number of people to work with , director Duane Nichols worked hard to make every performance a smooth oroduction.
The group performed at an All-City contest at Nebraska Wesleyan University In the spring, they performed at another contest , held at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City.
Besides concerts, the Concert Choir performed at the state capitol for a Christmas concert. Several concerts were held at the school with other musical groups.
One of the best performances was the musical , "No, No, Nanette. " Student director Stewart Mart said, " This year' s musical contained a lot of great talent, and ended up being one of our best musicals ever. "
Singing at the graduation ceremonies was the final performance for Concert Choir. " This (graduation) is probably one of the greatest moments for seniors in the choir, " Mart said
There i s one vocal group at Northeast that is a little from the rest. It differs not only in the type of music that they sing , but how they sing it as well. This group i s called Meistersingers The Meistersingers perform only madrigal music , which was once very popular during the Renaissance The other major difference is that the group sings all of its music without accompaniment. This is technically known as acopella. Often times this can be very difficult.
Senior Meistersinger Jackie Peetz commented, " When you ' re singing without any accompaniment to help you out , you have to be really cons<;:ious of what you ' re doing. " Peetz went on to say " at first we had a lot of trouble getting the' sound just right , but after a lot of hard work it all began to come together. "
Meistersingers performed at many different places in the community Some of these performances took place at various elementary and junior high schools throughout the city as well as performances outside of the city such as the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. The group also participated in various d ifferent competitions like the district music con t est which was held in Apri l.

Under the directions of Mrs. Mary Oestmann , the group performed for · clubs , at contests , around Lincoln , and at Northeast.
Swing Choir is Northeast's jazz music group. A lot of work is involved in blending , articulation and tone Once this has been mastered, the group moves on to contests
" You ' re always thinking about the judges ," senior Mark Craig commented , " and , you ' re looking too hard for a good rank."
With all of this on the mind ' s of members, they still turned out to be one of the top-rated Swing Choirs at contests they attended
Junior Bryan Fisher won an award for an outstanding solo in the song, " Down South Camp Meeting. " " I was happy because it was a pretty hard solo ," Fisher said. " Even though it wasn ' t long, it was pretty fast. It was a lot different than any other solo I've done. "
With all of the hard work that the group put into the year, it was little wonder that Swing Choir achieved the success it did in 1984-85.

One aspect of Chamber Singers that sets it apart from other singing groups is that Chamber Singers sing chamber music. Chamber music is a form of music that was popular during the 1600' s and 1700' s. However, the Chamber Singers also showed their versatility by putting on the Rock Show
Another performance to highlight the year was the group's own musical, " To Have, To Hold," written by Jim Koudelka Northeast's accompanist.
The group travelled to Worlds of Fun in April where th~tr efforts were rewarded with five trophies and superior ratings.
When the year was finished, it was apparent that all of the hard work had paid off.

"
It has been a very successful year ," Connot said. " Everyone seemed to enjoy the competitive events ."
FFA members appeared to love the challenge that competing brought, if the amount of awards is any indication Events ranged from land judging to leadersh ip contests
When the group wasn ' t competing , members were busy preparing for upcoming events such as the National Convention , the FFA banquet , and meetings for other FFA members. Northeast reamined as the only FFA chapter in Lincoln.
The hard work and Cannot' s leadership helped members realize their goal of involvement and success in agricultural-related fields.
Twirlers show that precision and timing are major factors in a good performance
If the weather was right, performing at Seacrest Field with the band was an exciting way to end a week full of practice.

Lincoln Northeast's twirlers overcame amounts ot inconsistency and inexperience to project excellent performances throughout the year.
The twirlers started out the year with summer practices and small in-town clinics. During the summer, Capital City Clinics came to Northeast to familiarize the band and auxiliary with what to expect throughout the year. During this clinic, the twirlers learned new twirling techniques as well as a full routine. The twirlers also attended the band camp which helped them with routines and marching.
The Northeast twirlers also attended the Lincoln Public Schools Band Contest. This contest was held at Seacrest Field. The auxiliary put on a stunning half-time show and were awarded with a first place trophy. The twirlers also performed well at the Harvest of Harmony Parade in Grand Island.
According to twirler Jana Kempston, twirling is an art. It involves a lot of concentration, coordination and dedication. " I've wanted to do this since fourth grade, " Jana said. " I've learned it takes a lot more than smiling and dancing."
The 1984-85 Northeast twirlers were Stef Cave, Jana Kempston , Michelle Mayfield, Sharon Nelson , Nancy Wagner, and Kathy Wallick.

The eight varsity cheerleaders of the 1984-85 school year began their cheerleading role with a goal of increasing school spirit at Northeast. With the help of their advisor, Mrs. Nancy Bishop, the cheerleaders achieved their goal and kept striving for more. The members of the squad were: Amy Clark, Stephanie Grant, Mary Hoppes, Kandra Keech, Barb Morrissey, Sue Munson, Shelly Scott, and Tracy Walker.
The eight seniors started pursuing their goal with early morning practices throughout the summer. For a full week in June, the cheerleaders attended an NCA (National Cheerleaders Association) clinic at Nebraska Wesleyan University. The Northeast squad received several spirit awards and ribbons, including the NCA Spirit Stick
In August, the cheerleaders started raising spirit with their own victory by winning first place at the Pepsi Challenge Cheer Off. That first place finish was worth $200 to the group. The squad also attended a cheer off held in Grand Island.
The 1984-85 cheerleaders tried to involve the majority of the student body in the support for Northeast's teams. Once school started, the cheerleaders promoted school spirit by raising funds, making hall and locker signs, having pep rallies, attending all major and minor sports, participating in Spirit Week, and cheering the teams to hopeful victories.
A big change this school year was a reorganization of the pep rallies. The cheerleaders hoped they could get more students involved. The rallies usually consisted of cheer sets performed by the cheerleaders, introduction to particular sports, class competitions , and student-involved cheers. Because of this change in rallies, students became enthusiastic in their support of Northeast.
Perhaps Shelly Scott summed it all up when she commented, "There ' s always a lot of support for Northeast, but there's always room for more. "
Tracy WalkerThe 1984-85 reserve cheerleaders have been pushing their way to the top since April , 1984, when they were selected to their positions.
Members of this year ' s squad included : Cami Althouse , Angie Damian , Michelle Jones , Marci Neeld, Jodi Prey, and Ann Van Zandt.
With long hours of practice, cooperati on, and the help of sponsor Nancy Bishop , the group became an excellent reserve squad.
During the summer, the cheerleaders attended the !CF (International Cheerleading Foundation) Clinic at the University of Nebraska. While there, the squad received many spirit awards and ribbons. By the vote of other competitive squads , Northeast received the Congeniality Award. Also, the Grand Champion Award went to Northeast.
The group also marched in the Shrine Bowl parade. Their performance in the " Pepsi Challenge Cheer Off ' with the varsity cheerleaders was impressive. A cheering competition in Grand Island and a reserve pep rally during the basketball season were other highlights
Besides attending sophomore and junior athletic contests, the reserve cheerleaders were also kept busy making hall and locker signs.
While the girls had fun , being a reserve cheerleader was also work at times For Cami Althouse , that work was well worth the rewards reaped from the experience.
" it's an honor, " Althouse said of being a cheerleader. " There are a lot of girls trying out , and only six are picked. It's a great feeling to be one of those selected. "
The Northeast Star Strutters started out their 1984-85 re ign with a flash. At the beginning of the hectic year that started in the summer , the Strutters marched in the Shr ine Bowl parade and attended a drill team clinic in Crete, Nebraska.
The squad rece ived many awards and superio r ratings while march · ing with the band and captured other awards on their own
Some of those awards included the best rout ine performance at their clinic ' s talent night. The group also won t he " Piggy Award " for eating the most popsicles in the ir clinic.
The captains of the Star Strutters are Lisa Gottsch and Dwinell Schireman during football season and Mendy Mahar and Traci Lamphear during the basketball season
Being a Star Strutter is a very prestig ious pos it ion at Northeast. According to senior Strutter Rita Carlson , " When I was a sophomore , I wanted to be a Star Strutter because it seemed like it was something other people looked up to and adm ired. I know I did. " Performing at games and competitions is defin itely a h ighlight of being on the drill team But, to Star Strutters like Rita , ifs much more than that.
" I enjoy being with other people and dancing and being a Star Strutter was a way to have both ," Rita said
The time for the new squad is now here , but the senior Strutters won't leave unappreciated. They will carry with them the memories o f many half-time performances that enterta ined and dazzled the crowds.
Kelly and Steph take time out to pose for a picture while Rita and Carrie keep interest in the basketball game. Practices after school were an everyday routine for the Strutters. One of the Star Strutter's favorite activity was just having a good time together. The t 984-85 Star Strutters. Back Row (I. tor.): Dwinelle Schiennann, Lisa Gottsch, Kris McFarland, Mendy Mahar.

Although that tradition still prevails, Pep Club officers and sponsors have worked to make Pep Club more than just a spirit group.
In addition to interschool activities, Pep Club also did much for the community. For Thanksgiving, Pep Club gave food to the food bank, and over the Christmas season food was donated to the Cedars Home for Children.
Like past years, Pep Club sponsored the Homecoming and Turnabout Dances. They also put on a picnic with the N-Club and had holiday parties, many of which included other spirit groups.
Another way Pep Club promoted spirit was by putting on car rallies before games. All of these were intended to raise spirit and make spirit clubs more united. "We don't like the gap between spirit groups," Pep Club president Dawn Carmody said " We' re working to fill that gap."
Another main goal of Pep Club was to make girls in Pep Club feel special. They sponsored two migrations to games for club members. The trips this year were to Grand Island and Ralston. During the year, the Pep Club officers gave out small items such as balloons and carnations to Pep Club members.
During the games, officers gave out spirit prizes for the most enthusiastic members during that game. Another way Pep Club officers tried to make its membership closer was by electing sophomore cabinet members. These sophomore members were: Andrea Cerny, Lisa Koch, Lori Suttles, and Cori Tindle. These four members put forth their best effort to help the officers and sponsors improve Pep Club.
This year's Pep Club started out with about 70 members, and decreased to around 30 members. Although the drop in numbers was drastic, those who stayed with the club found out that Pep Club was more than just a spirit group.
The 1984-85 officers were: President-Dawn Carmody, Vice President-Lori Many, Secretary-Denise Tische, Treasurer-Chris Hamill and Merit Chairpersons-Chris Speer, Tammy Ward, and Christi Wright. Sponsors of the group were Mrs. Caroline Hug and Phil Pfeiffer.
The Pep Club patiently awaits the start of a pep rally. Pep Club Officers. Back Row (1. tor.): Dawn Carmody, Chris Speer, Chris Hamill, and Tammy Ward.

Pep Club officers and reserve cheerleaders were always ready and willing to cheer on the ROCKETS!For the 1985 ROCKET staff , the yearbook meant a lot of hard work, dedication and a good deal of cooperation with other staff members. Writing copy , drawing layouts , developing pictures , and selling ads we re just a few of the many responsibilities a staff member had to meet.
Besides all of these responsibilities , the ROCKET staff also had to choose a theme and a cover design for the book. The staff chose the theme, ··The Eyes Have It. " The cover and division pages were designed by Kevin Green, a friend of a staff member.
Although most of the staff had no previous yearbook experience, inexperien ce did not prove to be a major problem as staff members quickly learn~d their duties.
So phomore staff member Karen Wixson commented, "Most of the people o n staff didn't really know what to do when we first started the year , but everyone helped each other out , and in time , we learned what we had to do ."
One of the staffs major problems was lack of people in some areas. The sports staff started the year with only two members , juniors Rick Shaw and Monte Cassner. Cindy Wichman and Jenny Woodward joined the staff at semester time to help with the more than 50 pages of sports in the book.
·with only two people on the staff at the beginning, and with as many sports as we have here at Northeast, it was tough to give adequate coverage ," sports editor Shaw commented. ·sut, it has to be done ."
Deadlines also proved to be an ongoing prob lem for the staff. Staff members worked at a hectic pace during the one period each day. The final deadline was moved up this year to the final week of March since school dismissed in May.
That final deadline meant the staff would have little to do until the books arrived in late May for distribution. Some plans were made for the 1986 book, but for the most part the completion of the 1985 ROCKET b rought a welcome rest for those who toiled away in room 1 I 0.
102 / ROCKET Sports staff member Monte Cassne r is surprised by the camera Sports Ed itor R ick Shaw is in deep though t ove r the yea rbook .The Northeastern staff strived to keep Northeast students informed about the facts and the fast-breaking stories at Northeast High The paper , edited by senior Jenny Lobb , was printed approximately every three weeks , depending on the school's calendar.
In addition to informing the student body, the paper also provided invaluable experience to its staff members Senior Wayne Gonyea , a member of the sports staff , commented , ' ' Being on the staff helped me gain some valuable writing skills , and just being in the journalism atmosphere helped my structure of stories , and style of reporting. Plus , I was able to see how pictures were developed in the darkroom ."
Photographer Lisa Dominy agreed with Gonyea " Working on the Northeastern staff has given me experience not only in photography but also in many other areas of the journalism field " Dominy said her experiences on the Northeastern staff would be helpful because she plans a career in photojournalism
One of the biggest stories of the year was the resignation of Lincoln Public Schools Superintendent Roger Clough. The Northeastern devoted an entire page to Clough ' s decision , including a cover story done by Jenny Lobb following a personal interview with the superintendent.
Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) continued its goal of helping teens learn about the business world while learning about themselves The Northeast chapter, sponsored by Sandi Peters , followed that goal throughout the school year.
Seminars , leadership conferences, and regular meetings took time and effort from the Northeast chapter. In April , the group attended the State Leadership Conference in Omaha, and captured second and third places in Typing I, a third place in Business Systems and Procedures , and eighth in Clerical Competency
The 1984-85 officers were: PresidentSenior Debbie Ersch ; Corresponding Secretary-Senior Chris Znamenacek; HistorianJunior Wanda Rockemann; Treasurer-Junior Katie Hanus ; Recording Secretary-Senior Jenny Broers; ReporterJunior Carla Grafelman.
" We had a good year, " commented Katie Hanus. " FBLA is a good way to learn about business and to learn about yourself. It gives you a head start on everybody else if you plan on going into the business world. "
In addition to the seminars and workshops, a late April trip to Worlds of Fun was also planned

Northeast students won a total of 23 trophies and over 200 individua l ribbons
The coach of this year ' s team was Jay Chipman , i'fortheast drama instructor. " In my opinion, this is by for the best season we ' ve had since I've coached speech here at Northeast. " Chipman said

Northeast's 1984 Homecoming was once again a great success. Sponsored by the Pep Club , the festivities began with an all-school pep rally during which the royalty was announced. The activities ended with the dance.
Second attendants were Rich Hitz and Rita Carlson, while Mike Hart and Jenny Woodward were selected as first attendants. Homecoming King was Tre Brashear and the Queen was Tonia Arehart.
According to Brashear, being named as Homecoming King was an honor and privilege. " I couldn 't believe it. I really felt privileged to represent the school. "
Tonia Arehart had similiar feelings " It was really neat, " she said. " I was really surprised when I found out I had won ."
Despite a continuous drizzle , the Homecoming spirit couldn't be dampened as the Rockets pulled off a 14-7 win over East High.
The dance, held the evening following the game , was well received by those who attended. Music was provided by Sounds Unlimited. Tickets sold for $5 per couple , and the evening ' s festivities were held in Northeast's north gym.

Little did anyone know the success that G.T.A. would see The play would go on to win the d istrict title as well as a second place finish at the state competition
G.T.A. is a modern play by Tom Eyen. It is a comedy about the murder of a young g irl living in an apartment building called the G T.A. Soon, all of the building ' s res idents become suspects and in the end , all the suspects are convicted.
The distri ct compet ition in January was held at Northeast. All fou r Lincoln high schools competed , and Northeast was declared the winner, with Southeast finishing second. The district t itle meant
that the play would advance to the state competition , held in Cozad
While Northeast didn ' t win the state meet, the cast and crew members agreed that they gained a great deal of experience.
" I was very pleased with the production ," Chipman said. " This is the best finish in play production that I have ever directed , and it's the best Northeast has done since I've been here."
Senior Bob Rook, who played a country singer, enjoyed the experience.
'
'Without teamwork, we never would have done as well as we did ," Rook said " And , of course , we couldn ' t have done it without Mr. Chipman ."
The eyes that were on the all-school fall play, Done to Death , thoroughly enjoyed what they saw The play , written by Fred Carmichael , is a murder-mystery/ comedy which concerns five mystery writers who had been best-selling authors at one time.
Their styles ranged from the extremes of the old Humphrey Bogart type detective , to the new James Bond fashioned spy. A television studio brings them together to write a script , consisting of all of their personal styles , for a t.v. show.
Egos clash as each of the authors tries to get
his or her characters to be the basis of the script. As tempers flare , the murders begin. Each of the writers is murdered , one-by-one , and the surviving authors use their creative minds to figure out " who done it?"
Northeast director, Jay Scott Chipman, said, " the audience liked both the comedy and the mystery. They were both fooled and surprised by the ending. "
Chipman said about 50 students tried out for the 28 available parts " It was fun to work with such a larqe cast. I
met a lot of new people ," Tracey Curry said Bryan Fisher, who had one of the leading roles , said , " 1 was honored. It was neat to be able to work with and get to know the seniors in the cast. " Fisher was the only junior selected to one of the roles as an author.
Fisher said that the production was, " probably the top of high school level plays. We presented it as well as any other high school could have because we have a very good director. " Chipman agreed with Fisher. " It was a great success, " Chipman commented
"To combine these talents, to put a little Maxwell here, a splash of Benedict there, a dose of Duckton, a few dashes of Olives, and come up with a tossed salad of murder."

Under the direction of Northeast drama instructor Jay Chipman, the Northeast drama department presented their spring play, " Anastasia. "
The play, which is a fictional story based on a historical fact, centers on the family of Russian Czar, Nicholas II. The family was supposedly murdered by a Bolshevik firing squad. Rumors spread , however, and it was believed that the family had survived the terrible fate , or that at least one of the children had survived
The truth of what actually took place may never be known. Unfortunately, the Czar deposited millions of dollars in foreign banks all over the world. If there was a surviving heir, that per· son would receive the famous fortune Therefore, many imposters claimed to be members of the royal family, inlcuding Princess Anastasia , the wealthy Czar' s daughter.
The lead role of Anastasia was played by senior Faye Robison. " I tried to live the role as best I could, " Robison said. "I tried to imagine what it would 've been like to actually be Anastasia ." Robison said she enjoyed the role of Anastasia , because it " was a challenge. It demanded a lot from me as an actress. "
Learning the Russian dialect proved to be somewhat of a barrier for the cast. Senior Bob Rook said, "No role in Anastasia was easy. We all had a challenge , not only in the dialect which took about four weeks to master, but to actually become these once real characters. The camaradery of the cast made the show what it was; fun and successful. "
Livenbaum (Carolyn Slemp) helps the Dowager Empress (Julie Hauptmeier) to her seat. The Charwoman (Sarah Dale) and the Sleigh Driver (Jason Graff) await Anastasia's appro\;'al.The Cast

The Rockets first two losses came at the hands of Omaha Burke (15-0) and Fremont (32-12) " Our defense held up pretty good , but our offense was in need for improvement ," Northeast Coach Bob Els said following the Burke game.
Eric Rob inson , a senior running back and defensive back, enjoyed a successful season. Against Fremont, Robinson rushed for 102 yards , and finished the season with more than 700 yards rushing
" Everyone was feeling down from the Burke game. It kind of gave me an incentive to do well, " Robinson said of his effort against Fremont.
Disappointment turned to frustration as the Rockets suffered their third straight setback of the season with a 12-6 overtime loss to Grand Island. The Islanders , who held down the No. 1 spot at the end of the regular season , was highly rated when they edged Northeast.
" The Grand Island loss was about the most disappointing loss of the season ," AllState offensive guard Dan Jackson said.
In Northeast's first city game against Lincoln High , a fast backfield and a strong Links ' defense carried Lincoln High to a 4213 win over the Rockets. It was Northeast's fourth loss of the season.
A letdown following the Lincoln High loss was evident as Bellevue West beat the Rockets the following week, 21 -14. " We didn ' t play with as much intensity aga inst Lincoln High and Bellevue West as we had against Grand Island ," Els said
Northeast bounced back against Omaha South , however, and ended its five-game losing streak with a 20-0 shutout of the Packers Defense was the name of the game " The defense has held our head above water for the last three games ," Els commented following Northeast's first win.
Northeast's defense again prevailed aga inst Lincoln East, handing the Spartans a 13-7 overtime loss. The win gave the Rockets a 2-5 record. The leader in the gallant defensive effort aga inst Omaha South and against East was Jackson , a senior defensive tackle
" We decided to play as a team against East," Jackson said , " and we got the job done."
The Rockets didn ' t get the job done in the final two contests , losing to Southeast, 14-7 , and ending the season with a narrow 15-13 loss to Ralston

Northeast's reserve football team finished an up and down season with a 44 mark The Rockets ' season was marked with inconsistency
The reserves opened with an impressive 27-6 win over Fremont. The offense generated over 300 yards total offense, most of which came on the ground.
" The team executed the plays, hit hard, and tackled very well for the first game But, we need to eliminate a few small mistakes ," Coach Bill Story said
The following week , Northeast's defense prevailed as the Rockets handed East a 13-0 setback " Our defense came through when we needed it," commented quarterback
Charlie Colon ' 'The defense was a big part of this win ."
Turnovers fell upon the Rockets in their third game as a fired-up Lincoln High team gave the reserves their first taste of defeat. " It seemed as if Lincoln High wanted the game more than we did ," Story said of the 21-12 loss " They simply outplayed us. "
Northeast rebounded from the Lincoln High loss with a 12-6 win over Southeast in overtime Junior Bob Prai contributed to the win by gaining 101 yards rushing " The offensive line really did a tremendous job for me, " Prai said. " They were opening up some pretty big holes ."
The reserves then fell in a slump, losing their next three games and failing to score any points. The Rockets lost to a spirited Milford varsity team , 20-0. That was followed by a 28-0 setback to Southeast, and a 27 -0 loss to Omaha Westside. Northeast's 3-1 record slipped to 34
Pride boosted the Rockets past Grand Island in the final game of the season. A 21-12 win evened the final record at 44. The game also provided every reserve player a chance to play " I wanted to give every player a chance to play, regardless if we won or lost. They earned their chance in practice and I wanted to give it to them ," Story said.

Facing high school-level competition can be a frustrating experience for many sophomore teams. That first taste of senior high participation can sometimes be bitter.
Ask Northeast's 1984 sophomore football squad.
Any thoughts the sophomores had about a winning record were swept away in a 0-7 season. It was year that most of the rookie gridders would just as soon forget.
The season ' s outcome started out with a 16-0 loss to Southeast and ended six games later with a season-ending loss to Papillion
" The highest point of the season was when we were ahead of Papillion , 8-6 ," commented Jim Lubben Lubben had to search for the highlight of an otherwise dismal season It didn ' t take long to explain the lowlights. " The lowest points came when we kept losing , game after game ," Lubben said.
Those losses included a 32-19 setback to Lincoln High and a heartbreaking 22-19 loss to East. At times , the Rockets were close, but Northeast was not playing horseshoes
Other highlights included the play of Ron McCloskey in a 40-14 loss to Beatrice , and the extra effort put forth in the East loss. If wins could have been awarded for effort, the Rockets would not have gone winless.
'' McCloskey played a tremendous game against Beatrice ," Sophomore Coach Mark Hickson said. " Maybe one of the best games I have ever seen a sophomore play. "
Most of the players and the coaches felt the squad was much better than the 0-7 record would indicate. " We didn't play as well as we could play in a lot of the games ," Lubben said.
An exception was the East game. According to Hickson, the team gave 110% against the Spartans, only to be denied Traditionally, Northeast has little trouble getting up for a game with East , whether it's on the sophomore level or varsity.
Going into the East game at 0-3 , the Rocket sophs may have left part of the season on the field after the tough loss At any rate , the next three games resulted in losses to Waverly' s reserve team, Beatrice, and Papillion.
It was not easy to try to assess the season, and Lubben could only wish for something that was apparently lacking on the squad.
"If we could start the season over again, it would be nice to have a little more speed, and more balance ," Lubben said.

After a near-flawless season , Northeast's volleyball squad breezed through the state tournament, capturing its second state title in the school's history.
The tone for the state tourney was set early. Northeast met a tough Kearney team in first round action, and promptly handed the Bearcats 15-0 and 15-10 setbacks Northeast's flawless march through the tournament had started , and many observers saw the handwriting on the wall.
Two of Northeast's three losses in a 25-3 season were to city rival, Lincoln High. There was the possibility that if both Northeast and the Links won opening round state tourney matches , the two would come face -to-face again in a semi-final match
Omaha Wests ide took care of that possibility by defeating Lincoln High in the first round It probably wouldn 't have made any difference who Northeast played in the semis. The Rockets were that good.
Westside fell , 15-4 , 15-11 , and only Belle-
vue East stood in the way of the championsh ip trophy.
Coach Sandi Genrich's squad disposed of Bellevue East, 15-7 , 15-10 The trophy joined the 1982 state title hardware in Northeast's front hall trophy case.
'
'I'm satisfied, and somewhat surprised about the season, " senior Kristi Walek said. Kell i Horky said she was confident going into the final game , but she admitted that going three sets against Bellevue East was not in the plans. " I was afraid if we had gone to three sets , the momentum might have changed and cost us the championship, " Horky said.
For sophomore Jenni Mau , winning the state title was the perfect ending to the season Mau was the only sophomore to make the varsity lineup.
Northeast won the state title in style , by capturing six straight games at Pershing Auditorium.

However , Coach Brenda Ward's squad reeled off four straight wins to open the season before their first loss of the season, to Fremont.
After another win, Northeast fell to East in regular season play Then , came the East Invitational tournament in which Northeast faced Elkhorn and defeated them , but then lost again to East. The Rockets rebounded to down Waverly in the final game of the
tournament.
After a loss to Southeast, the team was ready for its final game of the season, against Omaha Gross. Northeast defeated Gross for a big win , and some needed momentum heading into the City Reserve Tournament.
Northeast didn ' t last long in the field, as the Rockets were ousted in the first round by Southeast.
A season-ending win over Lincoln High left the Rockets with a 9-5 record.
The 1984 season marked the second year for sophomore level volleyball at Northeast and in the state of Nebraska.
Northeast's sophs finished with a 6-5 record, successfully above .500 for the second year of competition.
The young Rockets started off the season with three wins and finished the season with a win. Along the way, success and disappointment dotted the record books.
" I saw a lot of progress throughout the season, " Coach Carol Welker said. " With each game, we improved on one more
thing, like spiking and blocking."
Welker , who assisted with the 1983 varsity team , was named to coach the sophomores this season
The sophomores were led by leading server, Carla Scheinost, and by leading spikers Trish White, Lori McMasters, and Traci Hansen.
One of the most pleasing aspects of the sophomore team, according to Welker, was that the squad was able to win the close matches.
The Northeast boys and girls gymnastics teams both finished the 1984 season with very good records. The boys finished 4-2 in dual meets , while the girls posted a 4-1 dual mark.
The boys got off to a fast start , winning three of its first four meets The Rockets ' string was stopped by North Platte , due to what senior Sean Strough termed " an inconsistent effort" on Northeast's part.
" Inconsistency was probably our biggest weakness ," Strough said. " One day we would hit our events, and the next day we wouldn 't. "
After a narrow loss to Lincoln High (the eventual state champs ), Northeast entered the Trans-Nebraska tournament with good credentials. " The Lincoln H igh meet was probably our best of the season , even though we lost ," first-year Coach Terri Watermeier commented.
Northeast's boys finished second at Trans and third in the district. The district finish
was good enough to qualify for state , where the Rockets garnered 27 4.25 points, good for a fourth place finish
The girls started their season out on the wrong foot , finishing last in a triangular with Beatrice and Grand Island Better things were in store for the girls , however.
The Rocket girls bounced back with consecutive wins over North Platte , Southeast, and Ralston
The Rocket girls finished in the top three in both the Trans and district meets " Our
Trans and district meets were the best allaround meets of the season. Everybody hit," Watermeier said.
The state meet brought a fifth place finish for the girls ' team , and a second place allaround finish for standout gymnast Cheri Crosby. Crosby, coming off a one-year absence from the Northeast team , performed admirably during the entire season

"I felt very strong at state, and I ,can't be disappointed with second because I was so close."

The boys and girls cross country teams had competitive seasons in 1984. What the squads lacked in experience, they tried to make up for in effort.
The girls were faced with a numbers problem in most meets. In order to figure into the scoring in a cross country meet, a team must field five runners. For the girls, that number was too high most of the time. While the girls who did show were allowed to run , they ran many times for personal bests , not team finishes.
Although the boys team was able to field enough runners at every meet, the Rockets suffered due to lack of experienced runners.
A season highlight, however, came when Northeast finished 11th at the Omaha Bryan Invitational. But, that showing was followed by last place finishes at Trans-Nebraska and LPS.
Valerie Smith led the girls to their only win of the season, against Beatrice. Smith ran the course in 17:36, followed by secondplace Becky Hartung and third-place finisher Casey Smith.
Most of the runners were pleased with their progress throughout the season Many bettered personal bests at the distances
I improved on my times as the year went along, and that made it more fun ," commented Becky Hartung. Valerie Smith said one of the reasons those girls who were on the team remained out for the sport was the feeling of participating together.
"The team got closer as we went along , and that helped us perform better," Smith said.
Rich Hansen paced the boys team in a win against Beatrice. Hansen captured first in a time of 17: 17. Eric Duerr was second, Jim Koch fourth , and Matt Chick finished fifth.
" We gave a good effort all season ," Duerr said. " It was important for us to keep a positive mental attitude, and I think that we were able to do that."
Coach Bill Rogge said the squad ran well , despite the problems with numbers and a lack of experience
Keeping the proper form in running is important for cross country runners like Sean Musil.

The Northeast varsity tennis team concentrated on a rebuilding year as it stumbled to a 3-7 record. The squad found the going rough with only two seniors on the team. Nine juniors carried most of the load
The netters got off to a slow start, losing their first four meets. But, a strong showing against Beatrice resulted in the first win , 6-3.
Shane Bair, the Rockets No. 5 singles player throughout the season , said the Beatrice meet provided incentive for the squad
" The Beatrice meet was probably our best team effort It was also our first win and helped us confront all o f our previous losses ," Bair said.
Improvement the rest of the season was slow, but noticeable for Northeast. The netters won two of their last five dual meets Both of those w ins came against Lincoln High , within a week.
Jay Johnson and Dave Sacks , the No. 1 and No. 2 singles players and the No 1 doubles team , were a major strength for the
Rockets. The two earned all eight of Northeast's state meet points The team finish at state , however, was not as impressive as the Rockets finished 16th out of 22 teams.
" Having all six varsity members with somewhat equal talents was our main strength However, we were not very quick
and our ball control wasn't the best ," Johnson said.
Coach Steve Tegler said individuals on the team played well at times , but he was disappointed that the squad could not play well as a team.
Since the netters are young , an improved team next season is with in reach. " Finishing in the top five at state next year is a very real possibility," Johnson said. Ted

The Northeast boys varsity basketball team finished a somewhat disappointing season with a 9 -11 record. Although there were many disappointments along the way, there were also a large number of positive happenings
The team got started on a bad note, losing to Omaha North , 6343. Senior Mike Longe started his final season with a 15 point performance against North to lead the Rockets. Longe proved to be both a scoring and rebounding leader throughout the 20-game season
Northeast bounced back to win its next two games , defeating Hastings and Kearney. Hastings played the Rockets tough throughout most of the game , but a tough defense ended the Tigers hopes " We switched to a man-to-man , and since they were smaller , the change seemed to work ," commented senior guard Tre Brashear
Next up for Northeast was East, a team that finished as the runner -up to state champion Omaha Northwest. Northeast played East close , but the Spartans won 57-53 lt was the first of three losses to East during the 1984 -85 season
Christmas time brought the LeBlond Holiday Tournament in St. Joseph , Mo. Northeast finished 1-2 in the tourney , winning over LeBlond , but losing to Lafayette and East for the second time.
" We played very unsteady during the tournament, " Coach EdJohnson said " One night we would do very well and the next night we just fell apart. "
Northeast captured two straight wins , downing Lincoln High and Columbus , but a loss to city foe Southeast stopped the string of victories.
" For a while there , I thought we had turned around all together ," Longe said. " We were playing the best basketball we had played all year, but then Southeast kind of put a damper on that feeling ."
Northeast then lost two games in a row, including its third setback to East. The Rockets bounced back , however , and defeated North Platte. Longe and sophomore Brad Richardson combined for 29 points against the Bulldogs.
Northeast won two of their next three contests following the North Platte game before losing to a good Grand Island team
The Rockets ' regular season ended on a high note with a 69-38 win over Ralston But, the disappointment that had dotted the season appeared once again in the first round of the A 1 district. Northeast dropped a 5 752 decision to Lincoln High. The season was Johnson ' s 36th at Northeast, and the veteran mentor was already looking ahead to 1985-86
" I feel good about how the season went, " Johnson said. " I thought we tried very hard and we have a lot of our players back next year. Hopefully, we can challenge for the district title ."

Northeast's reseive boys basketball team finished just above the .500 mark, posting a 8-7 record
Close games seemed to be the rule rather than the exception during the season Northeast opened the schedule with a 5046 overtime win over Omaha North That game was followed by a narrow, 4241 loss to Hastings
The squad was led during the season by the rebounding and scoring of sophomore
Mike Ripley. Ripley pulled down 83 rebounds and averaged 8 3 points per game.
" We played well together," Ripley said when asked to analyze the season. " At times , we played well on both offense and defense "
A 54-50 win over Millard North and a season-ending 484 7 win over Ralston were just two more examples of how close the scores were for the Rockets.

Northeast bounced back from its season opening loss to defeat city foe Lincoln High , 33-29 " We broke their press , and we played very good defense ," Shawn Kennett said of
the Lincoln High win. The defense was so tough , in fact , that Lincoln High scored only 10 points in the first three periods
The sophs then squared off against Lincoln Pius , and Northeast held a 39-37 lead after three quarters But, Pius rallied to post a 5145 win.

Northeast started the season with a great deal of confidence as the team raced to four straight wins. That confidence was soon put to the test and the Rockets promptly lost three straight, to Lincoln High, Lincoln East, and Millard South.
Northeast rebounded from the losses to post a convincing 61-25 romp over Kearney, but that win was followed by two straight losses to Lincoln Southeast and Lincoln High. The pair of losses characterized Northeast's lack of success against city foes
Over the course of the next four weeks , the Rockets would experience the highs and lows of basketball. The joy of winning was soon followed by the despair of losing as Northeast traded wins and losses for the remainder of the season. The Rockets downed Pius X in the first round of the District A -1 tournament , but Lincoln High ended any Northeast hopes of going further as the Links claimed a 59-50 semi-final win over the Rockets.
Rollercoaster would have been a good word to describe the Rockets ' season. It seemed like all of the big wins were soon followed by a loss

The Northeast girls reserve basketball team finished its season with an 11-5 mark, which could mean some good talent will be moving to the Northeast varsity next season.
" All of the starters and non-starters were really close, and the support from the bench was great," commented Amy Bailey.
The reserves started the season off by dropping a five-point decision to Omaha Gross, but followed that loss with a pair of wins, against Bellevue East and Papillion.
The jv' s continued its winning ways for another week by thrashing Norfolk, 53-30.
Millard South ended the winning streak by claiming a 37-33 win A win over Kearney and a loss to Southeast set the stage for a string of seven straight wins for the reserves Omaha North was the seventh victim, but the Rockets were then stopped by a pair of losses , one to Fremont and another setback to Omaha Marian
" We have a lot of good inside ability , wh ich should be valuable for next year, " Bailey said. " Coach Shields coached us well to get us ready for the varsity level next year. "
For the second season of competition , Northeast's sophomore girls basketball team gave a respectable showing with a 7 -5 record
The team started the season with a 36-27 win over the Lincoln East sophs. The contest was one of a few that showed the Rockets with a little breathing room in the final score.
" A lot of our games were close , but we came up on the short end of too many of them ," commented Shelly Novak
The feeling of playing in a first high school level game was a little nerve-wracking for the sophs, but the squad handled the pressure
with the season-opening win.
" We were all nervous before the game , but after the first quarter most of us played our best ," Wendy Svoboda said.
After defeating East, the sophs won their next two games , then lost a very competitive game to Lincoln High , 23-22
" What helped with our season was that most of our starters were close and we all knew the abilities that each of us had ," Novak said.
With a winning season behind them , most of the girls agreed that a great deal was learned about effort and sportsmanship
Northeast's boys and girls swim teams finished mediocre seasons with somewhat average performances at the state meet.
Both teams started the season on a positive note with wins over Columbus. The girls downed Columbus, 105-60 , while the boys won , 93-65. " I think both teams swam well for that early in the season, " said Northeast Coach Jon Miller.
The two squads then suffered two straight losses , to Hastings and East. " I wanted to beat East more than anything ," commented junior Lynda Holt. " I guess it wasn ' t meant to be ."
The boys came back strong against Grand Island , handing the Islanders a 98-66 setback The girls were not as successful , losing to Grand Island , 91-76. Miller said he was searching for improvement from his teams
At the Ram Relays in Ralston , both Northeast teams finished in the lower half of the bracket. " I felt our teams put up a good
effort, but nothing seemed to work for us, " Miller said
The boys struggled and won one of the last four meets. " I was disappointed we didn 't win more dual meets ," Sean Strough said. " It wasn ' t like we were short on talent. "
The girls also dropped three of their last four meets.
The Trans-Nebraska and state meets symbolized both club ' s success throughout the year. The boys finished third out of seven teams at Trans , and 11th of 23 squads at state. The girls finished fourth out of seven at Trans , and 17th of 22 at the state meet.
Northeast did display some outstanding individual talent at the state meet. Senior Trevor Bryant placed in tv.i·o events , finishing seventh in the 100 freestyle and fifth in the 50 free Strough placed seventh in diving, and Jim Gelinne finished sixth in the 100 breaststroke.

The 1984-85 Northeast wrestling team mixed experience with underclassmen and finished with a 5-3 dual meet record The Rockets also showed they could compete with the rest of the state in various invitationals.
" l thought our kids proved themselves capable of competing with anyone and this was shown throughout the season, " Coach John McIntyre said
The grapplers opened their season on a slightly disappointing note, finishing 11th out of 15 teams at the Omaha North Invitational. However , Northeast bounced back strong , garnering their first dual meet win against Beatrice. Led by seniors Paul Fountain and Monte Harner, and sophomores John Larchick and Sean Swisher, Northeast edged Beatrice 25-24 " I think the eleventh place finish kind of made us hungry," Swisher said of the Beatrice win
The Rockets won two of their next three dual meets Northeast downed Hastings , 2716, and Southeast, 45-19. Fremont ended the winning string by claiming a 36-20 win over Northeast. " I think we probably could
have won the Fremont meet if we ' d wrestled like we could. It just wasn ' t our day," Fountain commented
After defeating Grand Island , Northeast headed into the Trans-Nebraska Conference meet, and McIntyre said he was confident his squad could perform well.
Northeast came away from the Trans meet with a third place finish. Once again , Fountain , Larchick , and Harner paced the Rockets.
The Rockets followed Trans with a 53-18 crunching of East High , giving the team a needed boost before district competition.
Northeast finished fourth in the district meet, scoring 96 points in the eight-team field Larchick finished second in the 118 lb. class , while Fountain won the 132 lb. title
The Rockets finished a good season in an average way at state, scoring 23.5 points and finished 20th out of 31 teams. Fountain placed fourth in his class , while Larchick finished fifth.
Sophomore heavyweight Sean Swisher defends himself from an opponent. Swisher was one of sever sophomores who wrestled for Northeast this sea son. Monte Harner puts a hold on a Lincoln High opponent. Harner was a steady competitor for the team during the season."I think we probably could have won the Fremont meet if we'd wrestled like we could have. It just wasn't our day."
