[UrbScotty]

85. Question to you cross country runners

Often times I see someone with a shirt that says "Mount Pleasant Cross Country" or "Loy Norrix Cross Country," and then there is a "CC" with an arrow running through it. Any significance behind the arrow?

[Nikia]

53. I did also

I also swam for a while, but it became difficult to stay fit for both sports and I was better at running.

[AllegroRondo]

12. football fields are for band practice!

yes, pit musicians count.

did you have to march parades with them?

[bbernardini]

15. Ah, yes. Forgot about parades.

Which is odd, since I just brought it up in a faculty meeting yesterday. We were the honor guard at the front of the band for every parade. I was usually in charge of the American flag.

[UrbScotty]

86. "Half time is game time!"

So said a couple trombone players in my band. Of course they were trombonists, so I wouldn['t trust them. }(

No organized sports for me, just a skateboard and any curbs, ledges and stairs I could find.

[SoxFan]

56. Football, Baseball

Threw the shot put (not very far, unfortunately)!

When I maxed out at 5'10", that pretty much put the kibbosh on any chance of playing defensive end for the Patriots!

[bigwillq]

57. Baseball (nt)

[Gormy Cuss]

58. Band.

Hey! It's a sport. We had uniforms. We drilled routines on the field. We competed.

[achtung_circus]

59. The only sport I ever really cared for

was helping the girl's synchronized swimming coach. I got to spend a lot of time with nubile teenage girls. I also got personal "instruction" from the coach.

High School.

Good times.

[SPKrazy]

60. Swimming and Track

track until my knees swelled up and I had to quit due to arthritis

but swimming was good.

[u4ic]

62. Floor hockey

I didn't participate much in school sports other than the above and gym, but outside of school I was pretty active. Riding horses was my main focus.

[reyd reid reed]

63. I was on the dance team

and the ROTC drill team.

:eyes:

[Lydia Leftcoast]

64. Proud non-athlete

It made me sick to see the way the jocks were allowed to be kings of the school and torment the other students, also how one class was cancelled at least once a week for a Nuremberg Rally, uh, I mean, pep fest.

Sports were WAAAY out of control at my high school, and ironically, my school was always at or near the bottom of its league. They might as well have given up and paid some attention to academics. But that would have been un-American.

I studied, sang in the choir, and was in the class plays. I can still read, sing, and act. How many of those football and basketball players can still play a credible game?

[dolo amber]

65. All 5 ft nothing of me shockingly played basketball

I couldn't dribble, or assist, or pretty much do anything but hit shots from the perimeter all freakin' day. :D

They canned me after sophomore year; I guess they figured I'd get pummeled. :(

[hyphenate]

66. Sport?

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:


I'm afraid I've never been good at any sport, and in school, I did everything humanly possible (including getting scarlet fever one year) to get out of gym class.

Although I will admit that despite that, I have always enjoyed swimming (it was just never in our school), hiking and the one thing I could do in high school was climb ropes (as long as they had the knots in them).

[gemdem]

67. Ran track my freshman year

I got my freshman numerals ("equivalent" of upperclassmen letters) and then retired to the chess team. I ran like a plowhorse back in the day -- now I run like an old broken down plowhorse. :-)

[anti-everything]

68. Hockey

My school didn't have a team because I went to school in the south, but I played in a youth league.

[camero]

69. lettered in wrestling and lacrosse

made my state tourney as a senior in wrestling and started in lacrosse as a junior. High School that is. God, that seems so long ago. 22 years now.

[opiate69]

70. Hockey and Baseball..

I was a goalie and a catcher respectively.

[Drum]

71. golf team.

and I skiied for fun.

[Lilyhoney]

72. 16 inch softball

Although I did not play in school, I played at my local park for 10 years. I even played left field for city championship game at the old white sox park.

Lilyhoney

[Broken_Hero]

73. Football, and Track and field...

Football, I was nose guard, and right tackle...in track and field I was a disc/shot put man.

[Broken_Hero]

95. and, track/field in college....

:D

[HuskerDU]

75. Baseball and

basketball. Wish I would've gone out for football too because I love to play.

[Wapsie B]

76. None. Never had the skills to play at the high school level

for football, basketball or anything else. One of my dreams was to go back and be able to make the high school football team. For a team literally out in the middle of nowhere they were good; damn good. When at the time their winning streak is broken it's the 5th longest win streak in the entire U.S. I'd say they know how to play a few downs.

[HuskerDU]

77. Could I take a guess and say Emmettsburg HS?

Just a guess.

Hey it's great to be a Hawkeye bushwentawol!

[Wapsie B]

78. No.............. it was Wapsie Valley

Good guess though. They have a good program. We had the fortune to beat them for one of our state championships.

Yes it's great to be a Hawkeye HuskerDU!

[HuskerDU]

80. Should have known it was Wapsie!

I remember the guys from Wapsie kicking our butts at flag football over by Hillcrest dorm in IC. It seemed like every kid from that school was a stud athlete.

Go Hawks my friend!

[Wapsie B]

84. Yeah, when your regular-season opponents include Robert Gallery,

and all those studs from Aplington-Parkersburg with 5 players in the NFL you get plenty of practice.


Go Hawks my friend!

[LisaL]

79. basketball

[UrbScotty]

81. Do marching band or sitting on my behind count?

If I weren't so lazy, I probably would have wrestled. Maybe I would've run track or threw discus/shot put.

[ElizabethDC]

82. Crew in high school, volleyball and basketball in middle school

it was all a tremendous waste of time for me, as I am quite possibly the least athletic person on Earth. In my PE classes, I developed a real talent for finding ways not to participate.

[cherokeeprogressive]

83. Never played in school but I grew up playing baseball

and was better than average. I started at 9 playing at a field about a half-mile from my house called O.K. Harrison field (I have 8mm movies of my uncles on Opening Day in 1956 at the same field). I played shortstop and third base.

The coach at my high school was the pony league coach at a field on the other side of town. Needless to say, if you didn't play in HIS league, you didn't play on the team at MY high school.

[Cabcere]

88. I played little league basketball in middle school, but

never anything "official" until college, when I joined the rowing team. :loveya: I LOVED rowing and still miss it (had to quit last year because of a back injury that wouldn't heal properly x(). Great sport.

[enigmatic]

89. Football

3rd down reciever; I had the best hands on the team and didn't have a problem going over the middle, but I wasn't very fast so I didn't usually play on 1st down..

[Wetzelbill]

92. you didn't go both ways?

You seem like you have a defensive mentality. Like you'd rather hit a guy and make him blow snot bubbles than to even live. :)

[enigmatic]

93. Nah

I played special teams on the junior varsity b/c they really needed somebody who knew how to tackle, but I was strictly a receiver when I got to the varsity. I would have been a Larry Centers-type had I played in the NFL (which wouldn't have happened, obviously) catching screens out of the backfield and occasionally running the ball..

[Wetzelbill]

90. I wrestled and rode bulls

when I was younger I played just about everything though. Baseball, basketball, football.

In HS, though I concentrated on wrestling and rodeo. Pretty well decorated. I led the state in bull riding my sophomore year, from start to finish of the regular season.

Wrestling I was a two-time division champion, twice all-state as well (took second and third) was chosen to represent my state in an All-Star Cultural exchange trip to Bulgaria. I also was a two-time state freestyle State Champion.

[enigmatic]

94. We need to see some pictures, bro

I'd love to see you in action; what weight class did you wrestle in?

[Wetzelbill]

96. I got a bull riding one

All my wrestling stuff is back home. I should digitize a few of my matches one of these days, none of my really good ones work anymore, effed up tape etc.

I wrestled from 98-112 in high school. Although in freestyle I wrestled higher. Like I won my last Big Sky State Games title at 125 lbs. I weighed like 120 though, I just didn't cut weight that week.

I'm coming out of retirement so I should have some new ones here in the next year or so. Looking to do some submission wrestling. I want to hit one big national tournament and prove to myself that I could have handled the big time then retire. :)

[BikeWriter]

97. left out

[cboy4]

98. ...

[rug]

[femmocrat]

100. I went to school before Title IX. No sports for girls in those days.

[SKKY]
