"We've got as good a chance
as anybody," were the words
of Heppner High School girls'
track coach Rebecca Randall
this week.
'This week ends the first
week of practice for Hep

Tom Shear, Heppner High
School golf coach, has insti
tuted a Johnny Miller style to
his girls' team in anticipation
of betting an 11th in state
mark this year. Charlie Raw
lins, a fifth place district
finisher, will head a boys' unit.
Shear said he thought his
Mustang stickers were "two to
three weeks ahead of his
teams in the past," mostly
because this is an "experi
enced bunch."
"We can get right into it,"
Shear said. "We might be able
to get into the psychological
aspect of the game."
The golfers started their
season last week on the Willow
Creek Country Club course.
This week will culminate that
work with a play-off match to
determine varsity spots.
Heppner opens its golfing
debut on Mar. 25, next Friday
in Madras in an A and AA
class meet for both boys and
girls.
Shear lists ten returning
lettermen from a group turn
out of 13. The remaining three
golfers are freshmen.
Senior Vicki Edmundson
and sophomore Cindy Kerr
will head up an experienced
group of female stickers.
Along with that "most ex
perienced" duo, Kathy Wolff,
Kristi Edmundson and Joan
Warren return to a team that
was second in district and 11th
at state last year.
Debbie Paustian fills out the
girls' squad as a freshman.
On the boys' end of the club,
sixth place district finisher
and possible state contender
this year, will lead a group of
five returning lettermen.
Rawlins, who takes his golf
seriously, has been working
for the last two months on the
golf course. Shear eyes him as
a district medalist hopeful
when the Mustangs take on the
McNary Golf Course in a two
day meet in May.
Another senior, Mark Sar
gent, is joined by juniors Jerry
Cutsforth, Don McEwen, and
sophomores Ron Ward as his
returners. Freshmen with po
