What were you guys up to?!?

Senior Retreat The Senior Retreat at Camp Luther was a memorable

experience for all who attended. Father Wayne spent much time and effort in preparation for the event, and he should be commended for a job well done. The activities of the day ranged from playing mailcall to celebrating mass. At one point in the mass all the seniors received a letter from a teacher who had them in class. The letters were very moving and the teachers wished us well in the future. Although the day was fast-moving there was also time for thought and reflection. The retreat was a day that will long be remembered by all seniors.

Dances

Homecoming

On October 22, the Scotus Shamrocks played their Homecoming game against Aquinas and celebrated their annual Homecoming dance. The Queen, Karen Pokorny, and King, Greg VanDyke, were crowned during the halftime of the game by 1981's Homecoming royalty Lora Kurtenbach and Dave Englebert.

The band, Wrecking Company played to the theme of "Sharing the Night Together", which was the theme that was chosen by the senior class.

Before the big Homecoming game and dance Spirit Week took place. These days were set aside to do crazy things to get the team and fans psyched for the game.

Monday was called "Backwards Day". During this day clothes were worn backwards. Shirts, earrings, and padlocks were placed on backwards by both students and faculty.

Tuesday was "T.O.A.D. Day" which stood for "Team Organization Activities Day". On this day students who belonged to an organization or participated in sports wore the uniforms that represent these activities.

Wednesday was "Let's Get Physical Day". Jogging suits, muscle shirts, and headbands were worn by many.

Thursday was "Mourning The Loss of the Monarchs". During this day black was worn. Black gloves, sweaters, and socks were a few of the articles worn.

Friday was "Green Day". Everyone wore green this day to symbolize the spirit of SCOTUS.

Sweetheart

On February 16 the Sweetheart dance took place in the cafeteria.

The evening was very enchanting. Sweetheart reflects the mood of Valentine's Day, which was the setting for the Sweetheart Dance. The crowning of Queen Cathy McLaughlin and King Jack Kelly highlighted the evening.

The decorating reflected the theme "Life is Just a Fantasy". The band that played for the evening was "Flight". The night will be well remembered for a long time!

Memories Memories on film for the juniors were the many

dances of the year. Homecoming, weetheart, and Prom were among the many. Besides the memories on the night of Prom, the juniors remember selling all those magazines to raise money for the event. Other memories were the excitement of receiving class rings, and Mr. J. Puetz's ever fun American History class.

The year sped along as the juniors waited to take over the reign at Scotus as the enior class of '84. The cla s sponsors were Mr. Hixon and Mr. J. Puetz.

Memories A second year has passed away for the sophomores.

But fortunately many of their memories have been captured on film.

There were many new experiences for the sophomores such as receiving a driver's license. Now these little angels can be seen everywhere "cruisin!"

The class participated in new classes. In world history they could travel through time seeing the many wonders of the world. Biology taught many the features of life. Selling candy bars was a form used for raising money for the Sweetheart dance held on February 12, 1983.

Memories

The freshmen experienced many new memories this past year. One of the biggest and best is coming down to the first and second floor. They got the chance to use the full lockers.

The year was filled with learning of foreign language, earth science terms, and having Co-ed Pe. It was a year for joining new clubs and participating in sports.

They got to rub elbows with the upperclassmen both in the halls and in the gym to cheer the team on to victory. Students went to tape dances for the first time.

Their class sponsor was Mr. Dan Mahoney.

The 1982 Cross Country season was a success, with the team finishing fourth at the district meet and winning various invitationals, triangulars, and duals.

Having a team with only two seniors, the Shamrocks cross country team performed well.

The Shamrocks won the Scotus-Aquinas-Lakeview triangular meet with John Riley being the top Shamrock runner. They also won the Scotus Invitational, Fremont Bergan dual, and the Nebraska Centennial Conference meet. Although they didn't send anyone to the state meet, the team represented their school in a way they should be proud of.

The 1982 Cross Country girls' team finished the year sending one runner to the state meet. Scotus, as a team, finished second in the Aurora Invite, second in the Scotus Invite, and won the Aquinal dual. The Shamrocks finished third at Districts.

Paula Stopak, the one runner Scotus sent to state, finished 40th at state. Paula led the girls' team with good leadership and experience. Team Results Aurora Invitational - 2nd place Scotus Invitational - 2nd place Aquinas Dual - Scotus 23, Aquinas 15

Row 1 - Bill Soulliere, Todd Duren, Jeff Lassek, Todd Jarecke, Todd Peterson, Chip Korth, Timm Mullen, Tim Gray, Pat Kuta, Greg Jarecke; Row 2 - Coach Jim Puetz, Pat Krzycki, Rick Bogus, Jim Placzek, Joe Tshantre, Scott Spenceri, Chris Pokorny, Bernie Kwapnoski, Jay Cutsor, Kevin Wolfgram, Coach Vern Younger; Row 3- Fr. Wayne Pavella, Kris Harsh, Mike Ebner, Paul Prososki, Roger Konwinski, Wayne Borer, Mark Krings, Brian Van Dyke,

The 1982 football season brought many memories and breathtaking moments that will not soon be forgotten. Although the shamrocks ended the season with a 6-3 record, this team ranked as one of the best to ever wear a Scotus jersey. This year, however, no coolers were broken, but a set of headphones paid the price for victory.

This season was the only year that the Irish placed more than 8 people on the All-Conference football team, with 11 people qualifying.

The Shamrocks started the year with a loss before they strung out six straight victories. But luck ran out on the Shamrocks before the end of the season as they lost the last two games of the year.

The season finale against Fremont Bergan spelled "heartbreak" for all Scotus coaches, players, and fans. The Shamrock defense allowed the Fremont Bergan Knights to eros their 50 yard line only once. But once was too much as Bergan scored the only touchdown of the game and won the finale 8-4.

The scoreboard is now blank, the helmets are put away, and all that remains of the 1982 football season are memories. But to all who played a part in the success of the Shamrocks, the memories will always be cherished.

The 1982 volleyball season was a season that will be remembered for a very long time. It culminated an intense effort by the volleyball team members to accomplish a 20-2 record and a final season Class B ranking of 5th. With a team motto of "NO LIMITS" the team would not let itself be denied of its many goals.

The individual honors voted on by team members were:

Most Improved Player - Lori Soulliere Best Defensive Player - Jo Rhode Most Enthusiastic Player - Julie Paprocki

Team balance was the key to success. New records were set in nearly every phase of the game: serving, setting, spiking, and blocking. But most importantly were the many team honors:

At the beginning of the year we had a dream, And two and a half months later, it's come true it seems.

To get to Lincoln that first week in November, Was a goal we set and something we wanted to

remember. It began on a Tuesday when Albion was defeated. That first big win was something we really needed. From then until now and all the games in between, We just kept working closer and closer toward

reaching that dream. Our parents have supported us all season long, It feels great to look up and see Mom and Dad

singing that Scotus Fight Song, And the guys and their cheering and jingling their

keys. Running on the court and huggin' us till we fell on our knees.

All our support we've gotten is appreciated we feel, The whole season has been awesome and unreal, Today and tomorrow hopefully we'll play to the best of our ability. How far that will take us, we'll just have to wait and see.

The saying that we've used all season long still fits The Scotus Shamrock Volleyball team ha NO

The Scotus Girls Basketball Team completed another fine season while compiling a 13-5 record.

The girls got off to a tremendous start with an opening game victory at Omaha Cathedral. Throughout the season the team played close games after close game, highlighted by two-one point victories in consecutive games which were decided by Jo Rhode and Colleen Witt baskets in the closing seconds.

The team also competed and placed third in the first Columbus Holiday Tournament. The girls also won the Nebraska Centennial Conference National Division for the second consecutive year.

The success of this team can once again be attributed to the dedication, desire, attitude and hard work demonstrated by all members of the squad.

The spirit and enthusiasm shown in the Pep Club this year led the Scotus teams to successful seasons.

Candy and chocolate covered peanuts were sold for the first time ever and proved to be a worthwhile fund raiser.

Rain and wind during football games, and snow and ice during the basketball season did not affect the excitement the girls showed at every game.

Our Pep Club is still one of the best in the state!

It would seem that we have made progress in the Campus Ministry program here at Scotus since 1981 when the idea was introduced. A unique aspect of the program was the involvement of the students as ministers to a community that they are a part of. Liturgical planning and the summer garden for the poor showed student involvement.

The members enjoyed helping the needy in our community through a food drive. Christmas caroling gave a feeling of unity within the team.

Retreats for every high school class, that were planned by the team, were successful and will hopefully be repeated each year. The ice cream and volleyball party, repeated from last year, was enjoyed by everyone.

A visit from Auxiliary Bishop Milone will be remembered by everyone at Scotus. The Auxiliary Bishop along with priests from the local parishes were the celebrants for the September All-School liturgy.

The Scotus Chapter of FBLA took a trip to Omaha on April 14th, 15th, and 16th. Eighteen members of the 45 attended the State Leadership Conference and stayed at the Holiday Inn.

The Chapter submitted a Chapter's Activities Report and Scrapbook for judging. The members participated by taking no more than six tests and no less than three. Each person was asked to go to two seminars on Leadership and Careers.

When they were not taking tests or attending seminars they were sitting in their rooms, roaming around, swimming, playing pool, video games or golfing, or checking out booths of the candidates who were running for State Office.

Four delegates, Kathy Prokupek, Laura Bierman, Cathy McLaughlin, and Kelly Maguire were elected to vote for the new officers Friday night. Everyone else either went to the dance or to the movie held at the Holiday Inn.

Students winning awards at SLC were: Colleen McLaughlin and Diane Zornes, 4th place in the poster event; Virginia Sprunk for proofreading; Lori Sokol and Jane Wolfe honorable mention in the Creed Event, and Traci Ryba for her excellent job on the Scrapbook.

Kathy Prokupek, Laura Bierman, Virgin­ia Sprunk, DeLois Hebda, Shelly Tschantre, Mary Zoucha, Cathy McLaughlin, Kelly Maguire, Colleen McLaughlin, Traci Ryba, Julie Engelbert, Theresa Weiland, Jane Wolfe, Lori Sokol, Diane Zornes, Kathy Melcher, Becky Engelbert, Donna Bierman attended SLC in Omaha.

The Journalism Department had a very successful year once again, with 12 new students giving their all. We all worked together to prepare the 9 publications of Scotistics, an exper­ience I'm sure we will all remember in the years to come.

I would like to express sincere thanks and appreciation to the Pawnee Scout and to the Columbus Telegram for all the help and hard work they have put in for us this year.

I would also especially like to thank the staff and sponsor, Mrs. Bstandig, of Scotistics for giving me a fun time as editor, and for a great year!

Thank you! Brian Evans, Editor

Everyone hard at work on Scotistics.

Don't take that picture!

Don't jump guys - Journalism isn't that bad!!

What a ham!

Dear Fr1 ends,

It is with a great deal of pleasure that I extend to you wannest greetings on behalf of the entire Scotus Family. As I write this annual message for the yearbook, I think of the many hundreds of hours of dedication on the part of the Journal ism students and sponsor and the fine h'Ork they have· done. "Memories • on Film11 records well the activities and accomplishments of Scotus Central Catholic for us to hold and remeriler far into the future.

I think it is interesting that a portion of the title of this yearbook is "Tomorrow's a Dream". So ~ruch of what we experience in our daily lives is the result of another's dream. Persons of vision have built our Catholic school and have both sustained and supported it for well over a century of time. Foresight translated into dedication and hard work keeps us strong today. But, what about tomorrow? If tomorrow is a dream, then what does it hold for us?

I have full confidence in tomorrow for I know we have many who will fashion our future at Scotus Central Catholic TODAY. Our students, especia 11y our graduating seniors, are prepared to accept the challenge. It is they who hold the vision of tomorro>~ for it is they who were fonned by the dreamers of today.

S1ncerely,/

Today is a Picture, Tomorrow is a Dream

We look at these pages with laughter and a tear, Thinking of the days we have spent together this past year. From Homecoming fun to graduation mass, We were together in all we did as one united class. The Senior Retreat, open campus, and weekend celebrations, Ordering caps and gowns, writing research papers, and college preparations. These memories we hold in high esteem, Today they are pictures, tomorrow they are dreams.
