They stepped up and met the challenge of getting out of debt and making enough money for a senior prom. They were a few hundred dollars in debt, but after the carnival they made exactly 860 dollars profit. Though not many people showed up, the carnival was still fun. Everyone participated in the games, even a man in a pink tutu . The carnival was good for more than just making money. It was entertainment for the little kids who were too young to stay out late and trick-or-treat. The only bad thing about the carnival was that the juniors didn't get to go out and go trick-ortreating. The costumes were great.

Sixty-two percent of the Bayfield High School believes in ghosts, thirty-one percent went trick-or-treating in 1995J and half of the school went to the Halloween carnival.

They had everything but their mental game. After Bayfield would get ahead on their opponent they would let their guard down, letting the other team back in the game . Looking at the scores, mo t games were very close and many went into three very close games. Losing most of the starters from last year to graduation, it was tough to form a team ~d learn to play to- gether. Bayfield's varsity was known mostly as a defen iveteam. Not having an offensive is what got them down. By the end of the year the team improved greatly and will most likely be an excellent team next year. Erin Dumavant commits a mall net violation.

Cody Duran's dream came true as he was crowned state champion in the 125 pound weight class of the 1996 State Wrestling Tournament. He won 7-2 in double-overtime versus C.J Taylor of Hotchkiss for the title. "I can't de. crihe the feeling of finally reaching my goals", Duran said, "especially the revenge factor of heating Montoya in the semifinals and Taylor in the finals, hecause hoth heat me last year at state." In the match that followed Marshall Hahn lost a 10-8 overtime match to Brian Carlucci of Monte Vista to earn second place in the state tournament. He had defeated Carlucci three previous times in the season. Altogether the season was a success. The team was very young. The varsity consisted of two seniors, Cody Duran and Josh Homer, four juniors; Marshall Hahn, Olan Morrison, Cannon Ivers, and Miguel Gomez; two sophomores, Aden Morrison and Rohhie Lewis, and three fresh- NUFF SAID! men; Adam Mars, Clayton Shonk, and Ben Nelson. Of the eighteen out for wrestling, four qualified for the state tournament; Cody Duran, Marshall Hahn, Adam Mars, and Olan Morrison. Of those four Cody finished first, Marshall finished second, Adam placed third, and Olan did not place. The lone freshmen to qualify, Adam Mars said," I was happy with my finish and I am really looking forward to next year and hopefully competing for the title. The team's expectations for next year are very high with the talent the team returns. The experience everyone gained in 199596 will help the Wolverines contend for the title in 1996-97. Leading the squad next year will he five seniors. Marshall Hahn , a three time state placer, Olan Morrison and Dusty mars, hoth have qualified for state hefore, and Cannon Ivers and Miguel Gomez who will be looking to qualify for their first time.

Photo were defaced and captions altered on 46 pages. Personal attacks. obscene com ments. insults and profanity appeared in captions, while photos were scratched and drawn on. The vandalism was discovered by chance by advisor. Rick Edwards as he checked pages one last time in early June. The damage and destruction caused considerable delay as the yearbook had been put away for the year. At least 90 photos were damaged beyond repair and had to be replaced. Disks with copy and captions had been erased and new programs loaded upon the computer for the next year. All of these factors made the reconsruction of the damaged pages difficult if not impossible. Several pages remain empty except for ads because of the damge. We have operated for years with a feeling of security and trust at BHS . The actions of a few ick individuals have shaken that trust, but they will not defeat us, We will not give in. We will not allow this incident to break our spirit. We will bounce back to produce an incredible yearbook in 1997. We will work hard to overcome the violation of our memories and safety of our thoughts.We will not tolerate this kind of oppression and intimidation. We have one thing to say to the fool responsible for this crime." STAY AWAY. DON'T EVEN THINK OF TRYING IT AGAIN. Your actions were totally inappropriate.
