20 Gary Hooper Sharm Smoot Varsity Football "Get your§!?@! in gear- move that ball! Come on, you pansies- what are we play– ing, powder ball??!" Emotions working up, not once, but every week of the season - Learning to eat, drink and sleep football– Then hours and hours of conditioning and training, for that final moment- The thing that makes it all worthwhile-The "before– game-stomach-upset'·- The "during-game– blues"- The "after-game-exultation" ... and occasionally ... The "after-game-de– pression' '- A humble and sincere prayer offered by a team united in a single thought -WIN!! A coach full of hopes and anxieties -A half-time, full of cursing, rationalizing, justifying, encouraging- Weeks of prep– arations- Sizing up the opponents– Running onto the field -The heart-warming experience of hearing your school behind you, 200%- Running off the field bruised and muddy yet ecstatically victorious– Filling a red-carpeted room with pride, unity, spirit ... and baby powder- Treating themselves, after a victory, to a "Mr. Bubbles " shower- Sometimes using a whole box, with a bar of gardenia-scented soap between them- Sweat, tears, and occasionally blood, made the men of the famous Viking team.
