ANY WAY YOU WOK ATIT, WE ARE ALL JUST

From the moment we all entered the doors, we became Knights. We knew what it meant to wear black and gold and what it was to have true Knight pride. Even as the new freshmen and sophomore classes walked into school on that hot August day, they knew what was inside. They entered a world full of pride , dedication, and resilience.

When the transition was made, our sense of tradition at Southeast grew. We now had five hundred extra people to cheer on the sports teams, participate in the performing arts, and to excel in the classroom. With these new people, the Southeast tradition has grown, and will continue to grow. Combined with the junior class, the strength of our traditions will continue to hold fast even after the last bell rings and the tassels are turned on every senior's hat.

When the senior class of 2004 leaves the hallways, they will not only leave being part of the school, but also as having the school part of them. Being a Knight is not something that is left behind once we leave; once you are a Knight, you will always have a sense of what it is to be a Knight.

"I learned a lot here at Southeast, not just in the classrooms but in the hallways and in the relationships I had with others. Southeast tradition has left its mark on who I am as a person That is something you can never forget," stated senior Zac Wolfe. "Southeast has been known as a strong school because of our emphasis on tradition. It takes pride in always being as strong as it can be. No matter who entered the doors, the traditions behind our sports teams, performing arts department, and the academic excellence will continue to go strong. Thanks to the coaches and teachers, who give l 00% to the student body and our school, make the traditions that much stronger."

No matter who you are, what you will do at Southeast, or where you are going after high school, the fact that you are a Knight now, will stay with you no matter what. Once you are a Knight, you will always be one.

utheast students are filled daily with t just school. We found time in our busy schedules to work, volunteer, and travel. We went out into the community and found ways to have fun, to make memories, and to make new friendships.

"Getting involved with theatre and music helped me to meet a group of great people. My closest friends all come from the fine arts department. When we are not singing or acting, we are always hanging out, laughing, and just having a good time," said junior Alex Walker.

Whether we were giving back to our community, participating in a theatrical productions, or simply hanging out with friends, we were having fun. High school is supposed to be about learning, but it also about fun and friendships, and we found ways todoitall.

proud to be a knight

-SHOWING SPIRIT IN EVERYTHINc-:, WE DO-

Every where you turn you are reminded of the success, memories, and friendships that are all a part of high school. Whether you are a cheer1ea de r, football player, member of the band, actor, DFA (Dedicated Fan Association) member, or a club president you have the "comfort of knowing that the student body 1s behind you all the way, " junior Lauren Lineweber said.

Knights show their spirit by joining activities, sporting the Southeast black ana gold, standing shirtless in fhe cold, decorating lockers and cars, ana attending pep rallies and

other school-sponsored events.

Although he is a new sophomore Matt Hill knows just what it means to be a Knight "It means taking pride in the opportunity of going to Southeast, because we truly are lucky!" Sophomore Karen Obrist expressed the essence of our spirit. "The energy here creates this feeling of excitement that gives you this rush, this amazing adrenaline rush," Obrist said.

The spirit contained within our school was a tradition before we got here, and will continue to thrive beyond our years.

What would you have done if you didn't have to go to school for three months straight, the sun was hot, and there were no worries about homework, grades, and bad hair days?

"Summer was a time to relax, hang out, go swimming, and most importantly sleep in," explained freshman Cari Bowers. "Once summer began, there were no more worries about homework or getting stuff done on time, you

can stay up late and sleep until noon," Bowers continued.

Many students spent their summer days working, swimming, volunteering, and hanging out with friends.

"On a typical summer day, I got up around 10:00, watched some cartoons, played video games, went golfing, went home and made scrambled eggs, then hooked up with my friends," stated senior Andy

Road trips allowed for students to hang out in different enviroments. Whether it was to Omaha for a trip to the zoo, or to Kansas City for a concert, students found ways to have fun outside of Lincoln. "We went to see the Vans Warped Tour. Rancid was really good even though we had to pay $4.oo for some bottled water," commented senior Whitney Majors.

"No matter how people spent their days, it never lasted long enough," junior Trent Price said while adding "summer doesn't last forever so live it up!"

Summertime brings hot endless days and nights for the Southeast students. During the summer, there was plenty of time to go places, meet new peopfe, and do new and interesting things.

Many students had the time and opportunity to travel. People went to other cities, states, and even to other countries. Sophomore Charlie Henninger went to Aruba (an islancf l 5 miles north of South America). "I went scuba diving, jetskiing, and swimming in the ocean with dolphins."

Senior Laura Duden also went to South America last summer She played bells in a Peru church with her mother and two other families. They went to play handbells at different churches and buildings for religious ceremonies. "It was interesting how different people act and survive in a different country. It was exciting because now I have seen things I never saw before," saicf Duden .

Many people stayed within the United States, Chelsea Schrage went to Alaska with her family. "I went glacier hiking, and flew around Mt. McKinley. It was cool how it was never dark up there during the summer," Schrage said. People traveled by boat, plane, bus, and by car. Or at least some tried to travel by car. "The car broke down on the way to Branson, Missouri," freshmanElizabeth Wood said. Wood spent time in Missouri, Alaska, Nevada, and Washington, D.C. with her mom and brother.

Other people stayed within Nebraska. Senior Jeremy Stokes went to Cabelas in Kearney. "Spending time with my dad was the greatest part of my day."

Students at Southeast enjoyed a fun-filled and adventurous summer wherever they went, whatever they experienced and with all the people they met. by Katie O'Hara 1

or folding clothes, but collecting the check on payday has got to be one of the perks. "I really need to look for a job, ifs hard to go out and do stuff when you have no money," said senior Melissa Covalt .

On top of working one, two, and maybe even three jobs, students still somehow

find time to volunteer. "Volunteering is a good way to give back to the community, a positive way to fill my time and keep me out of trouble," reported senior Ashleigh Peters.

Whether ifs the- seniors volunteering for their citizenship issues class, volunteering for your church, a club , or working for pay, jobs paid an important part in high school life.

A loss of l 6-3 to Omaha's Creighton Prep didn't stop students at the Homecoming Dance from having too much fun. Sophomore Claire Pasco simply put it by saying, "It was bumpin' yo." Students came together on a warm September Friday night for a "A Knight To Remember." For some, this year's homecoming dance would be the last one they would ever attend, but for many it was the first.

The excitement was evident on the faces of the first time attending freshman and sopho-more students. Newcomers were very excited about getting all dressed up, showing off their dance moves, being at the game before, and just hanging out with friends. Freshman Ashley Thiessen said, "I had so much fun I popped." The seniors knew what the party was all about, but without the freshmen and sophomores, Homecoming would not have been the same.

Homecoming is all about showing school spirit and honoring those classmates who have extended their skills beyond the normal parameters to win the votes of their loved and dedicated followers. Seniors Sierra Nielsen and Zach Copple took home the titles of Homecoming Queen and Homecoming King. Copple said, "It was an honor receiving the title of Homecoming King," while Elizabeth Love added "it was so great to see such admirable and deseNing people receive royalty." They were awarded with their crowns during the middle of the dance. Then the party proceeded.

Junior Andrea Allen described her most memorable experience of the night. "Having to take off my shoes and dance barefoot was sort of gross," she said. But barefoot or not, everybody seemed to be having a good time just dancing. Everyone could agree that Student Council did a great job of organizing this year's Homecoming DSJnce.

S!NC-BZS BRING THE ENwURAGING FABLE OF THE LJay DuCKUNG To THE SouTHEAST STAC-£

Opening night : actors pulled on orange tights and bright costumes. Techies touched up last minute painting and adjusted lights. The cast and crew were called to the stage to block the final snow scene before the doors open. Eager family and friends crowded Southeast's commons area waiting for the doors of the auditorium to open and release the sound of the first note from the orchestra to signal the beginning of the night of magic.

Even though the cast and crew had run though HONK! countless times the week before opening night, everyone backstage and in the house held their breath when the lights illuminated the first actors on stage With song after song being delivered perfectly and technical aspects working as intended, relief flowed through all who took part in its production

HONK!, the story of the Ugly Duckling, starred junior Tom Salistean as Ugly, senior Becky Hergert as his mother Ida , junior Zach Bloebaum as his father Drake, and senior Tyson

Jugens as the Hungry Cat. They were backed by a lively ensemble of singers

"The best part was the immense energy on ~toge and the crowd's reaction to the hilarious jokes and people onstage," said Tom Salistean.

Senior Sarah Comer, who played Dot the Goose, said, "Getting to entertain people and let them live In another world for an hour and a half was the most enjoyable part of HONK!."

The hard work and long hours put into the musical showed through outstanding performances night after night The cast dazzled children with fairy tale magic and amused adults with real life situations.

Senior Mike Johnson , who played the role of Fluff the Duckling and was also a crew member, said, "All performances were good because of energy, but the Sunday matinee was the best We recieved a standing ovation " by Sarah Wertz

If there is one group at Southeast that shows school spirit 110% year round, it's Student Council. President Sierra Nielsen said, "The satisfaction of being a part of StuCo is unexplainable. Our shared passion for Southeast and our great times of excitement and laughter make being a member an amazing experience."

In 2003 Southeast changed in many ways, the biggest was adding the freshman class to our school. There were many goals that StuCo had set for this year. "One of our goals this year was to boost school spirit by getting freshmen and sophomores involved," said Vice-president David Marker. For Nielsen, being President of StuCo is a very

large responsibility. "As a personal goal I wanted to tr1 to be a proactive leader and role model for the rest of my council and the whole student body," she explained.

Student Council would not be complete without their admirable and goofy sponsor, Brent Toalson. Toalson has been the Stu Co sponsor for 13 years. He has received the Nebraska Outstanding Advisor Award twice-in 1997 and 2002. Volunteering is at the base of what StuCo does. But saying that they just volunteer is too vague Each year the members of StuCo put their heart and soul into what they do, wh ich is quite a bit. Student Council plans and sponsors dances, Spirit Week, Pancake Feed, Spring Day, student forums, and drunk driving

awareness. Other events include the food drive, Mr. S.E. pageant, Penny Wars, Knight cards and volunteering at Saratoga. Community service projects include funding the skate park and the Antelope Park playground, which is accessible to all children. Last year StuCo raised over $15,000 for the auditorium renovation and continued that project this year.

Working hard is a must in StuCo, but it's worth it. Andrea Tallman said it best. "We have had so many times when we have worked really hard for so long that we become delirious and spend countless moments of tearjerking laughter."

Always an important part of high school life, a variety of styles and fashions were witnessed when walking the halls this year. Basketball jerseys, jeans with holes, tattoos, piercings and Birkenstocks were abundant among the stude nt body. However, above all else, comfort reigned supreme.

Senior Desiree Matthews described this year's fashions as "a little more laid back, comfortable but still cute," and favored the "roll out of bed" trend

Fellow senior Mark Barrera agreed, "I follow the lazy trend, because its l .

so comfortable." The style most commonly mentioned as least favorite was the ever-present sagging pants. Abercrombie, Hollister, American Eagle, Hot Topic, and Wet Seal were most commonly noted as "trendy" stores. Fans of the local and national music scenes represented their good taste with band shirts, and an increasing number of students showed their creativity through tattoos.

Senior Megan Morton said that the creativity of tattoos is why they were her favorite trend. Nose piercings became much more common, and some

students even branched out to piercing other body parts .

The fashion show that is a high school hallway or classroom took on a new look this year, but most of all students just wanted to be themselves. "I don't participate in any trends, I just try to be me," said freshman Bradyn Peters . Whatever the trend, or lack thereof, each student enjoyed their own niche, one which clothing and fashion are only extensions of, by

so muCh to dO...

With the piercing ring of the bell that signals the end of the school week and the beginning of the weekend for Southeast students, the realm of possibility is endless.

Each weekend for 32 weeks, l , 700 kids filed out of the front doors of the school and into a world full of parties, movies, athletic competition and general merry-making.

If you're freshman Emily Cohn, that means searching the malls for deals. On the other hand, you could be like thrifty freshm an Matt Harvey, who avoided anything that cost him money on the weekends this year.

The upperclassmen had plenty of fun, too.

Senior Joelle Hepburn remembered taking a boot from an abandoned farmhouse during one weekend excursion, and having it analyzed by a psychic.

Senior Sean Higgins also found plenty of interesting diversions for his weekend enjoyment. When he wasn't spending his time at the dojo practicing different forms of martial arts, Higgins was finding new, untested ways

to spend his time.

"My friends and I found a railroad rocket and strapped it to a manhole cover, and blew it up," Higgins said. "It shot about 40 feet into the air, and br9ke into about four pieces."

Senior Teresa Barry kept it simple and traditional on the weekends. "For fun on the weekends, I go to movies or hang out at my friends' houses. I spend money every once in awhile--it depends if there's a good movie out."

With the weekend excursions also came the question of curfew. Most underclassmen were forced into their homes by l l or 12 -at night. Many juniors and seniors, however, began to outgrow their curfews and stay out, as senior Audrey Farnham put it, "until the wee hours of the night."

Kids in all grades could agree: weekends were what actually made the year interesting. by Chuck Lippstreu

Whether they had 7 a.m. classes or wanted to get that parking spot on Smith Street or in 'C' lot, all of the students at Southeast had to wake-up earlier then they probably wanted to. Hitting the snooze button became a luxury that we all learned to accept. "I would be energetic if I got to get up later, but I didn't care that much," said sophomore Melissa Staberg.

Many students made it out to support their school, friends, and team by going to the sports events. "I went to every football game, rain or shine," said senior Chris Tran. "Being a Southeast student, I respect the tradition of painting up for the game ."

Whether they spend 3 hours or 30 minutes on assignments, all Southeast students experienced homework on a daily basis "When I study, I have music on," reported senior Laura Duden.

After a long day, a Knight becomes very tired. This means its time for bed. Students brush their teeth, take showers and change into their jammies and get ready to repeat the day again tomorrow. Its busy being a Knight!

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain

We all have sorrow

But if we are wise

We know that there's always tomorrow

Since the first grade, seniors Brett Broman, Josh Foster, and Zac Rabe have been buddies. When they were younger, they liked to make movies, build forts, and play War outside. Now they do almost everything together and know most things about each other's life. They experienced many firsts together, including "when Josh got his first kiss after a dance at Pound," said Broman and Rabe. Whether it was on the dance floor or out on the football field, the guys were always seen laughing and joking around with each other.

Lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on For it won't be long 'Til I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on

With their parents as friends, junior Tom Salistean and sophomore Spencer Goff, were friends at an early age. From playing G. I Joes as kids to being in Boy Scouts, they have grown up together. The two were friends, but not always that friendly. 'When I was four, and Spencer was three, he got in my Playschool car and was driving around. I got mad and decided to push the car (with him in it) off a retaining wall," explained Salistean. Even though they had their rough moments, they remained friends and now enjoy playing video games and football together.

Please swallow your pride

If I have things you need to borrow For no one can fill those of your needs That you don't let show

lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long 'Til I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

Since the fourth grade, seniors Jason Schwarting, Scott Hottovy, and Stuart Crittenden, have been friends. Through school, they played together in band and were in some of the same classes, but they also hung out outside of the classroom. "We used to have Nerf Gun wars, play with Star Wars figures and play Super Nintendo," said Schwarting. 'We also used to go Trick-or-Treating together as kids," added Hottovy. As they grew up, they began to make new friends, but they kept time for each other. "We're always there for each other," stated Crittenden.

If there is a load you

Have to bear

That you can't carry

I'm right up the road

I'll share your load

If you just call me

As neighborhood friends, seniors Joanie Thelen and Annie Krein made it a weekly routine to play Barbies every Sunday. "She always got the 'cute' Ken and I always got stuck with the 'New Kids on the Block' Ken with the cutoff rat tail," stated Thelen. Now that they have grown-up and moved past their Barbie days, they are busy with school and Shirettes. "The main reason our friendship has lasted is because I can always count on JoJo. Sometimes I don't even need to say anything, she just knows what I'm thinking," said Krein.

For the past fifteen years, senior Jessie Gibbens, sophomore Holly Jones, and junior Kim Ruud, have been spending their time together. Knowing

each other through their parents and daycare, they would play Barbies and spend the nights at each others' houses. 'We would spend the night at Kim's a lot and we would make little movies with Kim's brother Bo and his friends," said Gibbens. Even though the Barbie days are gone, these girls are still friends and try to hang out as much as possible.

Lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long 'Til I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

(Right) The New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers faced each other in Super Bowl XXXVIII. As the close game wound down, the Patriots' kicker Adam Vinatieri kicked a 41 -yard field goal with nine seconds left to play, leading the Patriots to a 32-29 .victory. Super Bowl XXXVIII was not only remembered for the game itself and the commercials, but also the scandalous halftime show. Janet Jackson revealed herself in a new light, with a 'faulty' costume.

(Right) Every year, the President of the United States addresses the public with the State of the Union Address. President Bush focused his address on The Patriot Act, taxes, the upcoming election, the war on terrorism, the capturing of Saddam Hussein, and the liberation of Iraq.

(Left) The Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King hit the theatres with a bang over the holiday season. Based on the J. R R Tolkein novel,

The Return of the King was a highly anticipated movie. The third and last in a box-office-blasting series , The Return of the King brought The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy to a close

(Below) After much turmoil between the US and Iraq, Saddam Hussein was finally captured. Hussein was found in a six by eight foot hole, covered in bricks and dirt. He was equipped only with a basic ventilation system and a handgun, which he did not use during his capture, making it unexpectedly uneventful.

From the war in Iraq to the arresting of Michael Jackson, there was no shortage of historically significant events. The music industry was full of surprising news dealing with the Jackson family to "American Idol" rejectee and soon to be superstar, William Hung. With the spread of Mad Cow disease to the increased popularity of the Atkins Diet, American's began to take their health a little bit more seriously. Kobe Bryanrs rape allegations added drama to the NBA while the Louisiana State Tigers upset the Oklahoma Sooners in the BCS Sugar Bowl. The political scene pumped itself up with the election of Arnold Schwartzenager as the Governor of California and continued to heat up with debates over legalization of same sex marriages

The pictures were taken by a "pancam," mounted on top of the Rover, which was claimed to have 20/20 vision, providing the highest-resolution shots ever taken of the surface of another planet. The images showed Mars as one would see it with his or her own eyes.

Lincoln is a changing and growing community. Each year brings new entertainers, new companies, and new opportunities for fun. With big name rappers such as 50 Cent and Ludakris coming to town, Lincoln's youth got a taste of big city entertainment.

Lincoln's government officials dealt with many issues including the smoking ban and State Fair budget problems. The smoking ban failed to pass, but plans have been set up to organize ways to bring in more money for the State Fair.

Many changes were made within the city of Lincoln, which only made the Capital City a better place to live.

(Below) The Lincoln Arts Council sponsored the "Tour De Lincoln," which featured local artists creations. The bicycles were auctioned off in December, raising $430,545.

The bicycle sculptures could be seen around town.

(Below) Lincoln Public School Superintendent Phil Schoo announced his intent to retire after this year . After a nationwide search, a new superintendent was hired. Mary Gourlay was previously the Superintendent of the Puyallup School District in Washington.

(Left) The Douglas Theatre Company planned a fourteen screen movie complex for downtown Lincoln. The Grand will be located on the block surrounded by l l th, 12th, 'O', and 'P' streets. Demolition began in the summer of 2003 with the grand opening scheduled for midsummer of 2004.

(Right) "One Book One Lincoln's" second year featured Ann Patchett's novel, Bel Canto. Many students and faculty members participated in discussion groups in school and in the community to help them understand the novel.

(Left) Six season Husker football head coach Frank Solich was fired, despite his l 0-3 season, and 75% overall winning record. Solich coached football at Lincoln Southeast for l l years, from 1968 to 1979 and then was hired by former Nebraska Head Coach Tom Osbourne, now a U S. Senator, to coach the Cornhusker freshmen Solich was replaced by ex-NFL head coach Bill Callahan.

Students will leave with the sense of accomplishment in whatever they achieved. From the friendships that were made to the intramural championships won, Knights were recognized throughout the school.

The individuality that makes up our school is what makes us one of the best. No matter where you come from, who you are, or where you are going, you will find a place to fit in here. From the classroom to the court, students represented the school and put their all into everything that they did. By adding in a whole new grade level, Southeast pride expanded into the freshmen class. New traditions combined with ones already intact with the upperclassmen, gave our school added pride and dedication.

"My favorite thing is seeing someone like my work enough to publish it. That, and finishing something I've been working on for a long time."

>AF.At--KY RIDE Not many people make daily trips to the barn to visit their very own horse, but Makenzie Rath does. She rides dressage, which comes from the French word dressur, meaning "to train."

"Dressage is the intricate harmony between horse and rider. The horse performs gymnastic-like movements in a series of tests and levels," explained Rath. She has been riding for eight years and won the 2002 Nebraska Dressage Association Award for both first and second level champion Her talents have been recognized and she was offered an internship for the coming summer "I will be in Germany for two to three months riding and training with a prominent instructor. I am extremely excited!"

exce lence and

Excellence in the classroom. Our school has been f f ~tiis to many years. This tradition has eGnfitn ~e g (j .,. ponded. With the new freshmen and sophomore classes, Southeast raised the bar for academic excellence. By adding a whole new freshman curriculum to teachers' already busy schedules we have made the transition to fit the definition of high school: we are now a school with grades 9 through 12 .

Even with cutting certain classes like Painting, Business Law, and Sports and Entertainment marketing, students had a chance to try new classes such as Photojournalism, Law and Literature, and Woodworking Tech.

"I like Southeast a lot because there is more opportunity for you to excel in certain areas. You get to choose from a variety of classes and I like being able to pick a class that I know I can look forward to having ," stated freshman Sydna Cooper.

No matter where you were from, how long you had been here, or who you were, you had the choice. This choice allowed students to actually enjoy their classes while doing the best work they could do.

"The opportunity to choose is awesome! I enjoy having fun classes here. Instead of religious, musical, or biological education, I learn how to cook and lift weights. I also like to have classes with all grades and not only juniors, like it is back home with the same class from fifth to tenth grade," added ju ·or foreign • • exchange student Michael Combach.

strength in numbers

A + B = C is simple algebra that students who enroll in a class in the math department always learn. From the ease of first year Algebra to the rigor of Diff Calculus, math is always in a student's schedule. "Diff Pre-Cal is really hard and we have to do a lot of work to keep up," said junior Maria Funk.

Students had a variety of math classes to choose from in order to fulfill their graduation requirements. Thirteen teachers made up the math department teaching many classes including: Algebra, Geometry, Advanced Algebra, Discrete Math, Statistics, Pre-College Math, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. Some of these classes were available as weighted courses, offering a .greater challenge to those who desired it .

Students usually associate math classes with homework. When taking a math class, students expected to have homework each night, whether it was 15 minutes, or two hours. "The amount of homework I give depends on the class," said Sheila Kellenberger, math teacher of l 8 years, "from none in Algebra Extended, to an hour in Differentiated Geometry, to an hour and a half in Differentiated Precalculus."

The many teachers in the math department provided a great staff whose teaching styles vary. Math teacher Anne Munksgaard said she tried to incorporate a lot of questioning into her lectures. She attempted to lead the students to figure out what was going on, while Kellenbarger said she tries to teach in a relaxed and interactive style.

Variety and education continue to be the staples of the math department. Students were sure to find a class and a teacher to fit their needs.

tomorrow's citizens

SOCIAL SlllDIES MOL[}S THE FUTURE

Dr. Jan Rogers, ninth grade civics teacher, had a piece of computer paper hastily taped to the door of her classroom. In its original Greek form it reads "Idiot: Anyone who does not participate in politics." Maybe Rogers never went so far as to call her students idiots, but the point was there all year long, hanging precariously on the wall. The mission of the social studies department, was, conceivably, to prevent tomorrow's leaders from being "idiots."

Plenty of rearrangements were in order to achieve this goal. Teachers Brent Toalson and Rogers taught ninth grade civics classes in addition to Toalson's U.S. History and Rogers' World History classes. Even Drivers' Ed teacher Mike Butler was called on for a Civics class.

Freshman Tamaryn Contatore thought he did a fine job, and applauded ninth grade civics in general. "Butlers a good teacher," she said. "He teaches you a lot, but makes it fun at the same time. The worst part of the semester was when he had to get knee surgery and we had a sub for much of the class."

A new AP World History class was added as well. Advanced Placement classes, providing the opportunity to get college credit in high school, were offered once again in Psychology, U.S. History, World History and Government.

Junior Tyler Heidinger, a student in AP Psychology and U.S. History, was glad that the classes are available. "They're challenging," Heidinger said. "They make you a lot more confident about the AP tests at the end of the year."

Longtime psychology teacher Mick Pierce retired at the end of first semester, but continued to participate in Southeast activities by announcing at the basketball games. Jason Settles joined the social studies department second semester.

The way it looked at the end of this year, Southeasts students would be excellent citizens, indeed.

wielding language

I TALK ENGLISH REAL C--OOD

The official language of Southeast High School abounded in the many classes that were offered to students by the English department.

Classes were available for all levels of reading and writing. They ranged from English 9 to Advanced Placement Literature and Composition, a college-level course taken by seniors. Several specialized classes were offered on the literature of such subjects as the Holocaust and Law.

Law and Literature was a new course second semester taught by Sue Petersen. "The reason I wanted to teach this course was that I think it is a very interesting subject," said Peterson.

Some students chose traditional English classes. "I'm taking American Lit. right now," said junior Seth Porter. "It's a typical English class, we read American authors and classics. The only thing different about it is the name."

Two new teachers joined the English department. • Michelle Stewart, formerly at Irving Middle School, now teaches Oral Comm. and Photography. Dan Studer taught the English l ODiff. Block and English 9. He had spent the last six years as president of the Lincoln Education Association.

>THERE SHE GOES AGAIN Kathy Steinke goes off on another one of her amusing tangents. "I love the freshmen; they are so much fun," she said, teaching English 9 Diff. for the first time. All

EXPERIMEN11NG DAILY

Anything is possible when working in the laboratory during science class. Every day in the name of science, students turn on the overwhelming gas in Chemistry and play with wet chicken thighs in Biology. From producing large colored- flames while chemical testing, to riding skateboards to test forces, there is always a way to have fun.

"When my friend and I were doing a dart gun lab in Physics, I got shot in the nose and the dart stuck," said junior David Geruwitz. "It was great."

Senior Jen Strasil also liked Physics. "I can apply the stuff we do in labs to everyday things," she observed.

It seems the choice of which class to take is endless. Biology , Chemistry, Anatomy, Geoscience, Astronomy, Physics, Earth Science, Marine Biology: all are available to students. The only class not offered this year was Environmental Studies. Junior Hannah Sughroue said, "I was really angry when I found out there wasn't going to be an Environmental Studies class because of budget cuts."

Don't worry about missing out on weird science experiments because of changes in the curriculum. It will all be the same next year. Science department chair Randy Emry said, "Not much was new in science this year," and then excitedly added, "but there was a new name given to an element!"

fit for life

MANY CHOIQ:S IN PHYSICAL FlTNLC,S

Soccer, Hip Hop, baseball, archery, and tennis are just a few of the activities one can do in a P.E class. It may have been hard to choose from so many options. Students chose from Fitness For Life, Health , Rec Sports, Team Sports, and Weight Training. P.E. classes help you exercise daily and learn about various diet plans.

Fitness For Life is a new freshman class. This semester course allows students to set up a fitness program to increase their flexibility, strength, or endurance.

"The students work on a healthy life, willingness, and risk factors. They are supposed to make it as personal as they can," said instructor Mimi Kuebler.

One day a week, the students are in the classroom. On the other days they are participating in activities such as handball, volleyball, racquetball , swimming and bowling.

"The variety is nice, but we aren't sure we like having it as a semester class. Maybe a quarter class like the other gym classes," said John Larsen, department chair

"It was fun, because we kind of got to do our own thing, and it wasn't too structured," said sophomore Andrew Rose.

the sky's the limit

SPECIAL PROGRAMS GIVE f'ARTICIP ANTS AN EXPERIENCE OF ,A LIFETIME

Lincoln Public Schools provides several programs for students who do not participate in the traditional LPS curriculum. These programs are: Information Technology Focus Program (ITFP), Arts and Humanities Program, Zoo School, and the Special Education Program.

During first semester a handful of students were seen carrying personal laptops to each class. Freshman Nate Henjes said, "The best part besides the laptop was the fact that we got to work with stuff we wouldn't normally use." For a final project, students were given the choice between making up their own project to teacher standards or doing a dream sequence. "I did a PSA on the effects of marijuana on your body and mind," said Henjes.

Arts and Humanities is a junior/senior level school, but sophomores taking higher level classes can participate also. Students attended A & H from l 0:00 AM. until 3:00 PM., leaving them time for, at most, three classes a day at their home high school. Students frequently visited museums, art shows, performances, and guest speakers during and outside the normal school day. During second semester, 22 Southeast students took part in one of the alternate high school programs.

Junior Adam Wolzen attended ITFP and the Zoo School. "I like the different schedule and how I can take different classes," he said. With a wide range of classes offered, Wolzen got college credit for the entomology course he took. A partnership with the Folsom's Children's Zoo is another aspect of the Zoo School's focus.

The Special Education program is designed to give students a chance to interact in everyday situations and to learn skills they will use in life. Many students in the Special Education program take classes and electives in other departments of the school and find that the special support systems help them succeed.

Something for everyone, success for all kinds of learners. All of these programs add up to make high school a special experience for all students.

the wonderful world of language

PROVIDING MORE CHOICES FOR STI.IDENTS

The World Language Department offers a total of four languages: Spanish, French, German, and Latin. A world language isn't required to graduate high school, but many students take a minimum of two years for college requirements.

Some students participate in these classes for something more valuable than credits. "I want to be a translator when I get older," freshman Gemma Kaizere said. She is currently enrolled in French, Spanish, and German.

At Southeast there are 46 total language classes, the majority of which are Spanish. Outside LSE, 330 million people speak Spanish as a first language, as opposed to only l 00 million German speakers , or 70 million French speakers. Here at school you can hear students walking down the halls yelling "Hey!", "Hola!", "Bonjour!", and "Hallo!" to their friends, giving the passing periods a feeling of diversity that in the past many students never saw. "It used to be, once you got out of that class you never wanted to hear 'como estas?' again," said freshman Melissa Jakubowski.

It •Seems as if students now are more eager to learn a language. Teachers have become more creative with assignments, and allow students not only learn the language, but also the history and the culture as well.

"We can ask more questions, even if they aren't totally serious," said Kaizere.

"I had a student ask me how to say 'ninja' in Spanish," Spanish teacher Arlys Eddy said.

The curriculum teaches about foods, people, and customs so that students can grasp a deeper understanding of the language they are imprinting on their brains every day for as many as five years. Fifth year French and fifth year Spanish are now offered for those who want to continue with thier language.

designing the future

IT1 S A TECHNICALITY

An Industrial Tech class has its advantages. Some take it just to get the Industrial Technology credits needed to graduate. Others take it for · different reasons, and some for both, like twelfth grader Maggie Sullivan who said about Graphic Communication, "I needed a tech credit and who wouldn't want to make their own t-shirts?"

Most people Who decide to take a tech class their senior year, had never taken a tech class before in their three years at Southeast. Then again there is an exception to every rule, like senior Corey Gutknecht. He has taken Computer Applications, Web Page Programming, and Communication Art. Gutknechfs most memorable moment in class was, "when I drew my first picture?!"

Some students take CAD classes to gain "better computer skill" like senior Zach Thompson. "I took the class to have the ability to take further CAD classes next year as well as have a better understanding of drafting," said junior Trevor Eno.

There is a variety Industrial Tech classes that Southeast has to offer, from Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) to Furniture Construction Design. In some classes, you get to design your own note pads and t-shirts. In others you learn ·the basics of cabinet design.

This year there was one new Industrial Technology teacher, Stan Haas. "I transferred to Southeast for the course I would be teaching, the staff, and the academic standards," he said. Haas likes to do woodworking, furniture building, and hunting in whatever free time he has.

Whether it is accumulating credits, or genuine interest in a subject, students can learn basics of design and construction in Industrial Tech classes.

freedom and creativity

THE FCS LlA.~ES KNOW HOW TO HAVE A (.'--10D TIME!

From Cultural Foods to Creative Clothing and Design, the FCS classes continued to rank at the top of many students' favorite class list. "This one ranks above all because it was just so much fun! I didn't even skip that class once all semester! Thafs how much I liked it," said senior Claire Armbruster. It just couldn't be said any better! The laid back atmosphere, freedom to explore personal interests and time to work with your friends, made the FCS classes the peak of a studenr s day.

"We all have to eat," said senior Andrea Tallman, which is a great reason to take Cultural Foods. While it gave students a chance to look at the food of other cultures, sophomore Andy O'Dell was simply excited that it would help him "be able to make food other than Mac and Cheese." Senior Steven Miller had his future in mind when he decided to take the class with hopes that he "would be able to make exquisite food to later impress my wife when I get married." The students learned about other cultures from all over the world while having fun preparing items such as Greek Pizza, African Lemon Squares, puffy fried bread, Italian Chocolate Cheesecake, and so much more!

The students of the creative clothing and design classes may have only started off with a simple pin cushion but their true skills began to shine through their creations of purses, pajamas, boxers, dresses, stuffed animals, and pillows. Sophomore Stephanie Robertus loved how she was able to use her imagination. "Now able to fix things on my own!"

Manniquins wearing extravagant costumes or nothing at all sat among random objects such as bike wheels, vases, and flowers. These objects were creativly arranged as subjects for drawings and paintings.

>Voit.Al Sophomore Nathaniel Yznaga proudly presents his artwork. Students in Beginning Drawing work with shapes, shadows, and shading. "Art is very relaxing. It gives you a chance to express yourself, while relieving stress. In drawing class we shade pictures with different kinds of pencils and pens. We don't do stuff that you would normally do, like shade with a white colored pencil and pen on_ly. It's sometimes frustrating because you always want to make it perfect," said sophomore Sonja Fejzic. All photos by Sarah Wertz

Photo by Sarah Wertz

When you think of art, what is the first thing that comes to mind? A famous painting? An enraged artist throwing paint? Students are not only limited to painting, they have a choice of many varieties of art, from drawing to making pottery. "I like making things and getting messy," said senior Garret Groathouse. In pottery students use clay and many different tools to slice and decorate.

Drawing is another class offered. " I do whatever the teacher tells us to do. Right now we're drawing some colored pieces of cloth called ties draped over a metal frame," said junior Trevor Eno. A style of drawing is assigned and students use their imaginations to create something unique.

2D/3D design is a class that offers a combination of drawing and sculpture. Usually there is a project to research a famous artist or an aspect of art history. In Beginning Photography students begin experimenting with light and chemicals. The first camera students use is made from a cardboard box with photographic paper inside. Students form their first black and white negatives and learn how to develop them into a real photograph. Sophomore Sasha Lesoin g said "The best part of photography is making my own prints. I've always wanted to go in a dark room."

People get immersed in the many different forms of art. Some may just want to have fun and others aspire to be future artists. Art is sometimes only seen as paintings in a museum, but here students create everything from photographs to clay pots to turn the halls into an art museum of our own.

printingp~ WORKING lN PUBUCATlONS

A normal day in the publications room can get pretty crazy. As music blares in the background, staff members rush to meet deadlines, locate missing photographs, interview people, finish writing articles and then edit them, and overcome writer's block. How does an editor sum up publications and the sometimes stressful work involved? "Boom!" joked senior Michelle Leland pointing to her head. "Yearbook is very stressful because there is so much work to do and nobody listens when I tell them to work," Leland continued. As the editor of the Shield yearbook, she had a load of work to do such as editing pages, writing pages of her own, and using her authority to ban people from the internet and other distractions so they get down to work.

Junior Chuck Lippstreu said he spent way too much time in the publications room, working hard every day to complete stories and pages before the deadline. "I am very hot and so is Clarion," he boasted. Lippstreu was the sports editor for both the newspaper and yearbook. "All we do is sit in the Clarion office and make memories," he joked.

Other publications classes offered are journalism and the new photojournalism course. Students in these classes learn the basics of journalistic writing and telling stories through photographs. These courses or photography are prerequisites for being on a publications staff.

Though being on staff can get very stressful and time consuming, it's all worth it when the newest issue of the Clarion comes off the press or when the final copy of the yearbook is distributed to students. Senior Sarah Goodbroad, Shield section editor, said, "I can't wait for it to be done!"

a year of firsts

CHOIRS EXPERIENCE CHANGE

The school year of 2003-2004 was a year of firsts for Southeast as well as it's choirs . Along with the new freshmen this year, came a brand new all-freshmen choir, Singing Knights. They, along with the other choirs, performed in Southeast's first ever Madrigal Feast in December.

Southeast now has eight choirs: Singing Knights, Belles Voix all girl sophomore choir, Knight Sounds-sophomore swing choir, and the Varsity choirs: Queen's Court (last year's Chansonneire), Court Choir, Countesses and Noblemen, Ars Nova, and the host of the Madrigal Feast, Bel Canto.

Bel Canto, is the school's madrigal choir. For the Madrigal Feast friends and family were invited to come and eat food, talk and listen to eight talented choirs. \\It was a lot of fun, and everyone worked so hard", said senior Tyson Jurgens . The Madrigal Feast had songs from "Carol of the Bells" to "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch."

"Everyone just has so much fun Its a great place to relax also. Choir is completely worth everything you put into it," Jurgens smiled.

Junior Caitlin Smith agreed with Jurgens. "Everyone does their best, because ifs not about just one person," she explained. "Everyone cooperates to get the best sound and image."

New students, new instructor, a whole new sound. Southeast's ch'oirs continue to grow, from Singing Knights to Court Choir. "It really is just a great way to spend your time," Smith commented.

PERSONAL PROFILE

Senior Mandy Schnakenberg, said she came to Southeast as a sophomore and joined the girls' choir, Belles Voix. Schnakenberg has performed in many of the other choirs like Belles Voix, Ars Nova, Court Cho ir and Queen's Court (last year's Chansonniere). Schnakenberg said she had an awesome time with all.

• "I love performing but when you look at people , and they're new, its scary," she laughed . "But performing isn't too bad, because the people in the choirs are really nice , it makes things easier. And everyone is really close," Schnakenberg said.

Schnakenberg had experience with all the instructors except Noonan. "Bowers and Hartman are strong teachers," she commented . "Its hard to audition in front of teachers and students even if you've known the students forever."

"It's not like sports . If you audition and are serious about singing, the instructors will do everything they can to put you in a group," choir director, Joey Hartman told her girls in Belles Voix. The small groups range from 12-16, and a large group can range from 30 or more .

"Singing also helps relax you, it helps you forget the bad things of the day and makes everything just a little bit easier."

Schnakenberg added.

BANDS CREA.TE LIFETIMES OF MEMORIES

Some people only like the music they hear on the radio or when they go to parties. But what about classical? What about jazz? Music is everywhere. 1 Music is in the halls of Southeast. You can walk down 'M' hall any time of the day and hear the sound of music.

In the early fall mornings, before others arrived, the Marching Knights were hard at work on the practice field, learning their show and perfecting their music. The marching band transitioned into a new phase that included freshmen. The band spent two weeks in August learning the music and drill for their show, "The Sound of Music."

Competitions took place every Saturday in October. "Clarinda was the best," said freshmen Matt Ohs. 'We won the competitions and received the Sweepstakes Trophy, too. It was awesome."

The celebration didn't end there. Trumpet trio, juniors Paul Krueger, Tom Salistean and Nate Schulz also received the award for best soloist.

The band traveled to Phoenix, Arizona, in December for the Fiesta Bowl Parade. "Marching band is all about the people," said senior drum major Scott Hottovy .

In the evenings during the winter, you could hear the Black and Gold Basketball Bands preparing for a night of fun at the game. "The best thing about basketball band is just playing fun tunes at the games," said junior Paul Krueger.

"I enjoy being with my friends and doing something that I love, music," said freshman Heather Hottovy.

"The best part about being in band is the people and the experiences," said senior Mitchell Lowery. "The memories that you gain will last a lifetime."

SOUTHEAST BANDS AND ORCES1RA PROVIDE

SOMETH1NL~ FOR EVERYONE

With nine years under his belt at Southeast, R.J. Metteer has continued to remain many studenrs favorite teacher. Through the years he's been able to keep a traditional program consistent, while being able to make transitions when needed.

Metteer conducts for nearly all of the music groups here at LSE, and he has a favorite part about each of them. "Symphonic Band allows me to see kids improve so much throughout the year," he said. In Wind Ensemble, he enjoys the challenging musicial literature that he and his students are able to study. "I like the different literature and kids that I get to work with in the Orchestra," said Metteer.

Southeasr s Jazz II program allows students to learn the basics of jazz music and improve on their improvisation skills. "I don't really have a favorite class though," he explained. "The variety I get to teach throughout the year and even within each school day is part of the reason I love my job."

Both the directors and the other students welcomed freshmen to the music groups this year, and soon it was hard to tell who was a "newbie."

"Mr. Metteer always makes class different and interesting," said freshmen French horn player Libby Weishahn.

Ifs obvious that Metteer wouldn't put in all the time and effort that he does into his job, if he didn't love it. "I love the kids, families and colleagues that I get to work with here. The people are great," said Metteer.

SnJDENTS TAKE CENTER STAGE

Lights, camera, action! Before the show starts students did everything from playing theater games to meditating. "My favorite game was freeze,which is a fun lmprov game," said sophomore Brandon Hugo. In Theater, games that strengthen enunciation and team work started class daily. After the games however, students got down to work.

Students learned how the stage works and behind the scenes terminology. They also learned to direct a play and how to write a director's script. Fridays though were special days where students worked on only improvisation, which is acting off whatever comes to mind without rehearsal. Don't think that students got off easy when it came to the final. They had to perform a duet scene that they wrote and directed themselves.

In Advanced Theater students worked on few things over a long period of time, compared the lots of little things learned in Theater. First students decided if they were going to do something for Nite of Knights, such QS try out for emcees or perform an act. Students also studied Shakespeare and other famous playwrights. It was hard work, but the rewards made up for it.

"I started theater because my friends told me it was fun and I wanted to have a reason to be on the stage," said senior Mike Johnson . Finally the students had the option to perform a one-act play they wrote and directed for their friends and family.

The technical theater class did all the behind the scenes work. They designed and built the scenery, hung the lights, ran sound, maintained the house and handled every other possible aspect of the technical side of theater. "I love technical theater. I only started last year, but now I want to major in Theater," said senior Cara Schroeder. Together the actors and the techies created stories that came alive with their theatrical magic.

READY FOR tHE REAL WORLD OF BUSINE._C,S

Vfhen one thinks of business they may imagine Wall Street including suit and tie wearing businessmen, not Keyboarding, Computer Applications, and Marketing classes in a high school building.

Students learn valuable skills for everyday life in business classes. They learn how to type quickly and efficiently and to raise their words per minute without errors in Keyboarding. Students explore the world of marketing and research in each of the many marketing classes and apply what they learn to real life situations. College Accounting lets students who have a special interest in money and finances learn at a college level .

Some students really enjoy classes in the Business Department. Junior Andrew Hanna especially liked Economics Perspectives taught by Doug Miller. "Economics Perspectives is a good class because we learned things that are useful in everyday life . We studied everything from filing taxes and opportunity costs to planning out a life budget and seeing if it would realistically work for us," explained Hanna. Economics classes give students a view of how real world issues like money and living expenses work.

Other students have taken business classes that are completely different than Marketing. Senior Josh Arten took Keyboarding I class second semester. "A usual day in keyboarding is lots and lots of repetition. I took the class because I needed a technology requirement, but I am actually glad I took it because I can type now," he said.

Sam Berndt, senior, also has taken Keyboarding. "My usual day c onsisted of typing, click click click."

While learning every day life skills and tricks of the trade can seem boring or repetitive, be thankful that business classes are nowhere near as stressful as a day at the stock market.

THE COUNSELORS AND NHS PROVE THEIR DEDICA110N TO SUl'lE-C,S

While they may have had other dreams such as becoming the Artistic Director of the New York Metropolitan Opera or running a glamorous art gallery or upscale art store, the counselors always knew that Southeast was where they truly belonged.

Alex Currie has always looked forward to each new year and the new "crop of young people to get to know and work with." The constant changing of students' schedules may not have been one of the most exciting responsibilities, but their hard work and dedication to the students and staff had great genuine rewards. Sally O'Neil loved knowing that she "made a difference in a young person's life." Constant worries about grades, scholarships, college applications, and other day to day stresses were put to ease with the help of their impressive team of proactive and caring individuals.

Along side the counseling team, the members of National Honor Society have helped to make a positive difference within the school and community. On October 8, 130 students gathered for the annual induction and to commit to a lifestyle of Scholarship, SeNice, Leadership and Character. Throughout the year, the students helped with various community activities such as ringing bells during the holiday season. For senior Elizabeth Love NHS forced her "to think about what is important in my high school career." The members of NHS held much pride in their success and set a great example for years to come.

Officers of NHS were: President David Marker, Vice President Eric Tesmer, Secretary Scott Hottovy, Treasurer J.D. Feerhusen, Reporter Carie Bose and Historian Kelly Seacrest.

ADMINISTRA110N

Freshmen aren't the only faces new at Southeast. The administrative team has welcomed several new additions to their ranks, including new educational coordinator, Takako Faga. Her responsibilities include working with student discipline and attendance issues, coordinating the student mediators, working with the Teammates program and working with testing.

Fago said it had been a very busy year, compared to the elementary school she had been at previously, but said, "its challenging and wonderful."

Her first impression was that, "there is a special feeling when you walk in (to Southeast). Its warm and welcoming with staff and students working together."

Other changes in the office staff were Kathy Schroeder moving from the attendance office to the main office, with Phyllis Rabe assuming some of the attendance duties. Schroeder said, "My job here is totally different. There is more variety " She works with student fines and obligations, the Club Day schedule and locker checkout. Schroeder added, "I do my share of answering the phone, too. It rings a lot and it usually takes all three of us."

Senior Ismael Martinez said , "I have stuff delivered (to the office) all the time for music, and the secretaries are very helpful. They have helped me . with my schedule, too."

Another new face around the office and around the school is resource officer Carla Cue who joined the staff second semester. Being available to offer help and support i~ a part of the school resource officer program

BEHIND THE SCENES

Cooks, custodians, attendance techs, and nurses were among the school staff whose essential contributions often did not garner the recognition they deserved. LPN Joan Johnston did not mind this, however. Johnston's favorite things about her job were "the staff and students that I work with" and she did not • feel that any of her services were under-appreciated.

School attendance staff also may have gone unrecognized. But if you have been late to class one too many times, they don't just fade into the haze of busy school days. They know who you are.

Aside from well-known custodial supervisor Todd Scherer, one probably did not appreciate the everbusy custodians who kept the school clean. Scherer said his daily duties included "opening the building, checking the boiler and swimming pool, and lunch room detail."

When your hunger overwhelmed your desire to learn, the cooks and lunchroom attendants came to the rescue, providing good food atan affordable price. Although they often did not receive the credit they deserved, these staff members helped make school the place to be over the noon hour.

quiet times

THE LIBRARY HOUSES KNOWLEDGE AND ART

Whats the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the library? "To be as quiet as possible or off with your head! Wait maybe that was Alice in Wonderland," exclaimed freshman Jordan Gottula. Either way, you think 'library,' you think 'quiet.'

But even after repeated attempts to find the library in this state of silence, you next to never find our library perfectly quiet. There's always the faint tapping of students rushing to type up a paper, the class before its due, or a class trying their hardest to stay on task and dig up as much research as humanly possible before the bell rings so they don't have to ruin their weekend plans by staying up all night to find information on their topic. "I know that I've spent a couple class periods, early and late school days in the library just to try and get some projects and research done so I didn't have to take it home and forget about it," agreed senior Lindsey Yardley.

The library also does an excellent job of highlighting students' talents. From displaying projects constructed for classes throughout the semester, to framing pictures done by photography students, pieces were constantly displayed. Both 2-D and 3-D works were highly visible. "I love seeing all the students' artwork hanging around the library. It reminds me how talented and special the students we work with are," commented media specialist Sheila Schumacher.

The library is a place to see art and learn more about any topic. Whether its Dr. Suess' Green Eggs and Ham or William Shakespeare's "Hamlet," that you favor, you can always find it in the library among tall shelves and fine art.

When club day occurred once each month, students were provided with an opportunity not to just get out of class, but to make connections in such a large school . Clubs offered a smaller community within the school, one unlike any other.

Some clubs offered an extension to existing classes. For example, Science Olympiad is higher education to any given science class. With 18 members, the club would conquer any task thrown at them. Then they were able calculate the force at which it was thrown and with what amount of work taken to throw it.

On a typical Science Fiction Club day, the members would usually pick out a favorite science fiction movie. Sometimes it would be a classic like 'The Thing.' Other times it would be

Fridays have always been the highlight of the week; school is over and the weekend is just beginning. But on select Fridays every month, students are allowed a break from the everyday hardships of school and have fun with close friends and make new ones.

Historical Documentaries may sound like something straight out of National Geographic, but the truth is, they watched movies. Old or new, funny or not. Kids got together once a month in the cafeteria to eat popcorn, talk with friends and watch classics such as "Rocky''

The Knights in Custom Car, Outdoor Encounter, Nature, and Fishing clubs had several unforgettable experiences this year. Joining any of these clubs was not a regretable decision for any member.

Kicking it into gear, the Custom Car club was for those interested in customizing their car, or someone else's. On each club day the

members congregated to discuss plans for upgrades to their cars as well as debating the pros and cons of different vehicles. You didn't have to own a car to be in the club, you simply had to possess

Film Club, Thespians and Thalians, Speech and Debate, and All Male Choir are all related. They all convey a message or story in different ways, through film, singing, acting, and public speaking. Each of these clubs also require outside of club day work time to create a product of entertainment.

Film Club is not just sitting around watching movies; it is a club geared toward learning how films are made, the

time that goes into making a good story board, the work that it takes to produce the shot wanted, and how to edit film. "I like film club because it gives students an opportunity to interact with other kids that have an interest in filmmaking," said junior Brent Schmoker. Guest

Speech and Debate is a club that requires a lot more outside work than most clubs. Participants spend time each week rehearsing for tournaments and learning better speaking and acting techniques. Junior Axel Arth described a tournament as, "like a visit to the dentist. Ifs long, sometimes painful, but if you behave and do well you get a lollipop, or in this case a medal."

For all these clubs the main focus is getting a message across in an artistic and creative way. Each club requires outside work, like producing a film, play, speech, or vocal concert, but the end product is well worth it.

When the gun sounds and the guys take their first step, their focus is on the finish line. They push forward, staying strong throughout the whole course until, finally, they cross the finish line. By staying motivated as individuals, they succeeded as a team. Senior Scott Hottovy said, "I pushed myself to stay in front of the people behind me."

The team came together as the season progressed. "I had been running forever, so it was just natural to run for Southeast," said junior Robert Rutford. Being a part of the Southeast tradition also

compelled boys to join the team.

Before each meet, the team got together with the girls' cross country team to eat loads and loads of spaghetti.

BEING PART OF

the cross country • exper1ence

Being a member of Girls Cross Country team is an exciting experience that involves lots of determination, pasta, and laughing. Many people picture cross country as an individual sport but working as a team is a very large part of their daily routine.

The tension between the girls and boys teams was a bit rough at times, but they worked out their differences. Junior Sophie Vodvarka said, "The girls team was better than the boys team because we got extra cuteness points."

Fellow junior Claire Christensen had a similar view. She stated, 'We

look better in short shorts." Having fun played a huge part in cross country, but none of that fun came without self-determination and team work. As senior captain Stephanie Walz said, "As a personal goal I wanted to encourage my teammates to do their best."

None of the runners were able to do their best without proper training and nutrition. Walz said, "We ran six times a week, during season, and tried to eat healthy and drink lots of water." Water was very important for everyone in order to maintain their hydration. Christensen loves water and stated, "During the season I drank more water than

So at the end of a great season what memories remained running through their minds? Friends. Christensen summed it up best," In ten years from now I won't remember my times, or how we placed, but I will remember the friends I made and how much fun I had with them."

OF ONE OF THE HARDEST WORKING TEAMS ,AROUND Foo1ball traditions for the Knights will be forever strong. Traditions of the Knight Shake, Walk the field, pre-game meals, and the tradition of winning will always be there. At the beginning of the season, the team went in with their heads held up high, looking forward to a great season, and at the end thafs just what they had.

An unexpected early loss at state frustrated and surprised everybody. "It was more disappointing after being state champions last year and it hurt even more because we lost in the first round and didn't have a chance to defend the ttt1e," senior receiver Kent Campbell said about the first round loss. Despite the loss, the the Knights claimed the ctty, district, and conference titles. "It was so upsetting, due to the fact we had worked so hard to get to this point and to see it end so quickly," said senior tight end/ defensive end Brett Broman.

All players had their good and bad memories. Senior Adam Porter said his most memorable experience was "when I 'hulked' out on the Grand Island quarterback and sacked him."

At every game students, parents, and faculty filled the stands to cheer the team on to a victory. Players appreciated the support and enjoy the painted frenzied fans of the DFA.

When the varsity foo1ball team was asked what they would like to do after high school, about one half of those interviewed answers had something to do with football. They simply love the game and loved playing with each other.

Senior Brandon Bolin plainly stated, "I like to play football and really like to hit people." trs this kind of dedication and outtook on the game of football that help the Knights keep the winning tradition alive.

The powerful smell of sweat filled the summer air. Running, throwing, catching and tackling brought drops of perspiration over the faces of the young men. During two-a-days and after school practices the JV football team was found on the field practicing with the varsity team.

JV's goal for the year was to have fun and be talented at what they did. Assistant Coach Dave Leader explained, "They were getting to do what they did as little kids." The boys got to run around

Although having fun was a major part of JV football, the competition was still fierce. "I'm all about being number one. That's what Southeast is known for," stated junior Jim Dawson.

"You learn a lot more in high school football than you do in junior high, not just about the game but about yourself, too. You are faced with more adversities which makes you into a better player and person," explained ·

junior Seth Wilson. Every member had their own reason for joining the team, "At first I played to get out of the house and to be active. Now, I play to be a Knight," said Dillion Cornett.

On the other hand, junior Garret Ely said he was tired of doing nothing through high school and wanted to be a part of something, so he picked football.

No matter what the reason was, the team pulled together for a very successful year.

goal of gold

BOTH RESERVE AND FRESHMAN TEAMS SU CCEED IN BECOMING CITY CHAMPS

The fans cheered, the coaches yelled, · and the players tried to remain focused. The reseNe and freshmen football players experienced this on a weekly basis. They pushed themselves during games and practices. Each team achieved its goals of being city champs and they took the titles in traditional Knight pride.

Putting on that Knights jersey for the first time can be a little intimidating, but players on the freshmen football team felt at home in their black and gold. "Playing football at Southeast is amazing," recalled freshman Danny Miller. \\We have our own locker rooms, fields, and we get the pleasure of playing under some of the best coaches in the state ."

With the first games in the record book as wins, the team endured a major blow when quarterback

Dan Reigert suffered a season ending injury. But as I-back Steve Schaffer said, \We had the second string guys come up big for us."

The new kids at North Star put up quite a fight. \\They were a decent team," said Reigert. \We came out kind of flat and picked it up in the second half."

Accomplishing their goal of gaining another city championship title with a win over Southwest, the team came short of being undefeated with losses to both Norfolk and Pius X

Whether they were struggling to secure a starting position, or learning the plays, the reserve football team was victorious. They ended the season with a nearly perfect record of 7- l , achieved their goal, and had a blast all at the same time . Starting the season off with wins boosted the morale of the Reserve

team. They prepared themselves for the rest of the season and the city championship game.

Only one thing separated them from the city championship title: their cross-town rivals, Lincoln Northeast \Northeast was challenging because they were a tough team and we had to play on their field," remembered quarterback Mike Zabel . But the team was triumphant and won the title of city champs.

Both teams end the season with winning records and city championship titles, but ifs going to be the friendships that they gained that they will remember. \\As a team we supported each other," reflected sophomore defensive-end Andrew Ruhrdanz. \\We started the season as teammates, but we ended the season as friends."

gil:ls just wanna have fun

As the wind blew and the sun hit the greens, the girls stepped onto the course. No matter how they finished, they were a team and they stuck together.

The first thing the girls picked up was not a golf club, but rather a pencil to write down three goals for the team and for themselves as individuals. "My goals were to improve putting, hit more , greens in regulation, and of course, to win state," said senior co-captain and state champion Rachel Byleen . There was a common team goal of going out and having fun. Senior varsity co-captain Lisa Herman said, "My biggest goal was to learn the fun parts about golf. I wanted to learn that golf wasn't just about

competition, but that it could be fun."

Whether it was at practice or at a meet, the girls helped each other stay motivated, while continuing to have fun. "Rachel always was in a good mood and made sure we were practicing hard while still having fun," stated sophomore Amanda Byleen . Between coach Ryan Phifer and the two captains, both of whom have been varsity golfers for three years, the team was able to do well on and off the green. "They work hard, have fun, and help each other out," said Phifer. Both teams overcame "losing half of the girls from last year," said senior JV golfer Kaitlyn Hedrick. Both teams went on to win two tournaments despite the early season setback.

Out of the 13 girls, five went on to compete at the state tournament. Although freshman Stephanie Brady, sophomores Amy Powell and Amanda Byleen, and senior Lisa Herman did not bring home a team trophy, they did have senior golfer Rachel Byleen, the individual winner, to congratulate. By going through most of the season as the number one golfer in the state, it was only fitting that she ended her high school career with the title of State Champion. Whether it was to just have fun and be a part of a team as JV golfer junior Sarah Gustafson explained her reason for being a golfer, or to take the state individual title, each member of the team finished the season on top .

VARSITY VOLLEYBALL GAVE IT TI-iEIR ALL

Day after day, the Varsity volleyball players squeezed into their spandex shorts and headed to the gym to strive to reach their goals for the season: putting forth l 00% effort at all times, working as a team, and having fun!

The team faced a huge challenge, working with only two returning starters. "We had to overcome the transition from Reserve and JV players to a faster-paced varsity game,"said senior Kate Mischnick. The team worked well together both on and off the court. The youngest member of the team, freshman Megan Statton said that she didn't feel any younger than anyone else. "We all truly fit in well with one another."

After practicing two and a half hours a day, running drills, lifting, and conditioning, the girls found practice very satisfying. Senior Katie Rocke said, "It was fun having good practices where everything just clicked and we made each other see the potential the team really had."

Their pregame floor talk about their goals got the girls ready and excited for

the game. They continually showed their great sportsm ans hip and genuine character. No matter where the score led them, the Knights always stayed positive and had a good time together. 'We all tried to make each other's experiences as fun as possible; there is no point in playing if it is not fun," Rocke stated.

Senior Courtney Stahl believed the most fulfilling aspect of being part of the team was building relationships with girls who shared a common interest .. .volleyball! They shared a charismatic and goofy bond filled with lots of fun and laughter. With individual nicknames, the thrills of "senior night," seeing Coach Kathy Wieskamp in a gigantic curly wig, the bus rides out of town, and the continual entertainment of Stahl's trips to the floor, the team made cherished memories.

The Knights took team unity, spirit, and desire into every game working towards their theme of 'Pushing the Limits.' "This team has come a long way, developing both as volleyball players and as people with character," Wieskamp stated.

Freshman reserve player Kelci Shipley wanted to play volleyball at Southeast." LSE has had a strong program in the past, and I wanted to play where I felt I could make the most impact."

"The hardest thing about volleyball was being so dedicated. It was time-consuming and took a lot out of you," said sophomore Erin Balderson. The reserve team had a good season, finishing l 2-8. One disappointment came when the team lost a close game with Southwest. Sophomore Katherine Krieger thought the loss was the best thing for the team because it gave them a reality check.

Joining a sports team is a great way to meet people at a new school. Freshman Kara Mieth said the best thing about the team was "being able to hang out with some really awesome girls."

Freshman Emily Vanous said, "We got to know each other and we would count on one another. We were more like sisters than teammates."

Working together, the girls achieved a 7-10 record. Freshman Simran Sohi said, "The best game for the team was our very last game of the season when we played East and we were behind, but pulled through and won."

Whether it was on the ice or on the lanes, these students knew how to get the job done. From playing hockey to bowling, Southeast students participated in other sports than just the ones offered through school.

Senior J.P. Major and juniors Charlie Davis and Jared Jenkins were members of the junior Stars. The Stars hockey team, seniors Jared Boll, Evan Rankin and Nick Tuzzolino practiced daily and attended school, sometimes miles from their home town. The Lincoln Stars hockey team attracts many young hockey players who travel all across the Midwest, competing again st other teams belonging to the USHL.

Coming out of the cold into the dim lighting of the bowling alleys, students participa ted in high school bowling on a varsity level. The teams travelled across the state competing with other high schools in both meets and tournaments

Under the coaching of Kevin Dunkle, the boys varsity team became one of the top ranked boys teams in the state, winning two tournaments. "We had the

confidence that we needed, and if someone had a bad day the rest of the team would pick up the slack," stated junior Bobby Ryan. With tteam unity needed in any sport, these guys had a season that was "a total success" according to senior team co-captain Brandon Kaup. Kaup and senior co-captain Chris Holmes helped the team stay motivated to win.

The varsity girls team overcame team difficulties to help each other stay motivated, and in the end, saw the results of teamwork. The result: the first state title, along with the first tournament win of the season. With the final games being bowled against in-town rival, Northeast, the girls stayed focused in the stressful time. 'We all helped each other stay together by talking to each other and tryin g to cheer each other up when we got down," said sophomore Kristin Stiles. Hockey and bowling gave students the opportunities to be a part of the winning tradition. No matter what colors they were wearing, from the black and gold to the blue and white these student athletes represented their school.

the road to success

FUN /\ND

Ten seconds left on the clock, your team is down by one. You pull up for a jumper and the ball spins around the hoop before it falls through. That adrenaline rush is what keeps the reserve and freshmen boys' basketball teams coming back for more With successful seasons and a city championship, the freshmen and reseNe teams ended their season with more then they had started with.

The reseNe team had yet again another winning season that could have been credited to the team camaraderie that each of the players felt "This year it seemed like everyone was willing to work to get to our goal--the city championship," said sophomore guard Marcus Cech. Thats just what the team did. With a record of l 3- l and key players like 6' 4 freshmen Mike Masin and sophomore guard Kris Bauer, the Knights pulled out a City Championship title over cross

town rival East High. ''I'm a competitive person and it's always a good feeling when you win ," said sophomore forward Brian Hansen.

The freshmen team experienced new and exciting things with the start of high school ball. "This year actually counted," said freshmen forward Nate Dunnigan. "The other years you've had parents and people like that coach and this year irs the opposite. Plus its Southeast basketball and there's nothing better then that."

The Knights finished the year with a record of 3-9. The team worked hard together and had fun, despite the less then perfect season. "My teammates were great," said freshmen Ben Neukirch. "They would cheer each other on and stay really positive during practice. "

The Knights had a great season where they learned things that will take them far in the future.

girls jv basketball more than girls

,.JV GIRLS PLAY JUST AS HARD AS THE GUYS

•The JV girls basketball team this year proved once again that they can play just as hard as anyone can.

"I like girls basketball because it allows girls to compete in a predominantly male sport. Even though some may think it's a lot slower or not as competitive, I think they're wrong. Girl's basketball is just as competitive as guys' basketball," said junior Cameron Hill. Hill, like most of the other girls on the team, has been playing basketball since she was a kid. There isn't really any difference between the way girls and boys have learned to play and love the game of

basketball. Both are playing towards the same goal.

At the beginning of the season, the girls opened with a great game that ended in overtime. After that the JV girls had a rough time. While most teams would be discouraged with a five game loosing streak, the girls bounced back and threw down exciting game after game. "My most memorable experience was at our game vs. Omaha North, where we won by 34 points," exclaimed junior Sarah Bailey.

With hopes of next year being just as, or more, successful as this year, the girls will move on to new and bigger challenges.

Coach Paul Smith led the girls to a nine and nine season.

All athletes have somebody they look up to or are inspired by, but not all have to be inspired by a professional or deceased player.

Sophomore Talaneshia Rush said she is inspired by none other than senior basketball player Jaime Loos. "She understands the concept of the game. I love her attitude. She's also a great role model and a perfect example of what a young lady should be," said Rush.

The team put all their heart and effort into each game to walk away with a successful season.

Forwards, power forwards, and centers all have to know how to use their body to post and play defense. Making shots is just one half of the game of basketball. Point guards and shooting guards have to know how to use their speed and quickness to the teams advantage. "Anybody can grab a rebound, make a block, or steal a ball. But good players need to know how to do all of those in a game, without fouling," said junior center Kim Ruud.

"Zone" and "man-to-man" are the most common types of defense used in high school basketball. Although the JV girls ran a zone twenty-one defense more, junior Nikki Rathbun said, "I liked running a man-to-man to defense more than a zone because it allowed you to put your main focus on the person in front of you. Our team matched up well against other teams." Photo courtesy of Cameron Hill

Following the sound of yelling coming from the boys locker room, y~u could easily find the boys swimming and diving team. "The guys would always go into the locker room before home meets to pray and then go to the shower area where we yelled and got pumped up," said senior Matt Blum.

The swimmers and divers shared many traditions in the path to their success as individuals and as a team. During downtime from their tough workouts, the team hosted card parties, team breakfasts, and Speedoruns. These types of social events led the team to "come together and create a stronger sense of team unity," said senior Jared Dorland.

To stay motivated, the team looked not only upon Coach Dave Peters, but the seniors and other team leaders. "If one of our teammates had a problem, we instantly pulled together and did what we had to do," added Dorland.

THE POOL

"After competitions, we talked about what the meet meant, how they had the opportunity to prove themselves and what we've worked for," said Peters.

As some of the swimmers and divers moved on to the state meet, the team unity became even more obvious. From the shaved heads to cars marked "Swim Fast" or "Good Luck" the boys solidified their status as a team.

As the two divers and the seven swimmers competed in the state tournament, the Knights ended the season with an eleventh place finish. With freshman Matthew Ohs dropping a total of twelve seconds in the two day tournament, finishing ninth in the 500 yard freestyle, Ohs was the first freshman at Southeast to ever break the five-minute mark.

As the seniors dried off for the last time as Knights, they left behind a strong team of underclassmen that will keep the swimming tradition alive.

Another year has ended for the cheerleaders, but it was a year full of new friendships, laughter, embarrassing moments, and memories that the ladies will always carry with them. Along with developing and perfecting their talents, they continued to flourish throughout the entire year.

Without a doubt, the ladies' devotion to their squad and to the school were seen through the countless hours they spent fulfilling their responsibilities. \\It's crazy to think about how much time cheerleaders spend overall, more than anyone could ever imagine," said varsity cheerleader senior Jenna Hubl, \but cheering has been one of the most exciting things I have ever done!"

They kept very busy cheering at sporting events; organizing and preparing for pep rallies, spending hours on end making locker signs and rally signs, volunteering, fund-raising, attending extra weekend practices, and hosting pre-games and squad nights. \\There is a ton of time involved in being a cheerleader, as well as lots ·of motivation and dedication," said JV cheerleader Tiffinii Eberspacher.

From the sto mping of feet to the dizzying turns, the girls of Step Chai n and Shirettes entertained the crowds during pep rallies , home basketball games, and during ' competition.

Countless ho urs of choreographing, practicing and refining t he ir routines, both Step Chain and the , Shirettes came to g ether as one unit to not only do what they love, but t o also make memories that will last a lifetim e. "The best thing about being a Shirette was the friendships and the bonds that I made with my teammates," said junior Jill House.

When t he Shirettes traveled to Florida for the Nation a l Dance Competition, they came home with a first place trophy for small porn and placed third overall. "The feeling I got when we were performing, kno wing that it was the best we had ever performed was amazing," commented senior co-captain Joanie Thelen.

Ded icatio n and hard work also paid off for the members of Step Chain. They didn 't have to travel as far, but they still brought home a second place trophy

from the All-City Step Competition.

Center court was not just for th e Sh irettes and Step Chain, because when springtime c a me around it was time for the Guyrettes to show the m how its really done. The guys learned what it was like to be a Shirette; they practiced daily and worked hard to learn their routine. "Even after all the prac tices , I still didn't know what was going on. It was so hard," said senior Drew Fergus on . Whi le some were lost in the motions, oth ers were b reaking it down , Guyrette style, li ke senior Eric Tesmer, who wowed th e crowd with his spectacular moves.

> GOING OUT WITH MEMORIES As students leave the building, some for the last time and others to return next year, they take with them the memories that they shared. They leave knowing that they became Knights.

ANY WAY YOU WOK ATIT, WE WILL ALWAYS BE

As the last bell rang and the last students left the hallowed halls of Southeast on June 4, silence overtook the school. The students cleaned out their lockers, teachers cleared off their desks, and the custodians put away their brooms. Southeast was left as it was before we entered the building: clean, peaceful, and ready to be filled with students again next year. The students who left, however, were not leaving as they had entered, but rather as individuals who had changed over their high school years.

No matter what grade you were in, what school you had come from, or who your friends were, you found something here to call your own, something that you had a passion for, something that you put in countless hours on waiting for the moment when you could see what you had created. You had discovered what it meant to be a Knight.

Whether you were on the stage, on the basketball court, or simply behind a desk, you realized that you now shared in the tradition of wearing black and gold, of carrying the pride that each and every one of us has in our school. You became part of Southeast, and it became a part of you.

No matter who you are, what you did in high school, or where the road of life takes you after your graduation, the fact that you are a Knight will stay with you no matter what. Once you are a Knight, you will always be one.

ld 2003-2004 colophon

The 2003-2004 Shield was produced by the Southeast yearbook staff and printed by Walsworth Publishing Company in Marceline, Missouri. 1000 copies of the 49th volume edition were ordered. The staff created the yearbook using Adobe PageMaker 6.5 and Photoshop 5. 0, with AWPC fonts fast pardon, OuvE OIL, Avant Guard, Avant Guard Bold, and 5rARveo BoLD. We also used Walsworth spot color and formula color. Countless hours went into documenting the traditions and transitions within our school and displaying lifelong memories.

The yearbook staff would like to thank those who helped make the Shield a continuing tradition: Mike Diffenderfer, our Walsworth representative; John Schmitz and the Walsworth contact team, Ben Wilson for his help with computer support, the Southeast main office staff-especially Ane Banwell, Kathy Burkman and Judy Warren. Team photos, rosters and scoreboards were provided by the athletic department. Thanks to the photojournalism class for their assistance with pictures, to the "Clarion" staff and Judy Hanika for sharing workspace and journalistic ideas and to Tom Christensen for photography advice.

Thank you, too, to our parents who understood our late night and Saturday work sessions and to the yearbook "fairy godmother'' who worked late into the night helping to work magic with our final pages.

Finally, we would also like to thank the students and faculty at Southeast for continuing the traditions that make our school what it is, and for· working to make all the transitions smooth. Thanks for a great year!

KNIGHTS REVEAL THEIR TALENTS

Some people like acting, others like entertaining others with their strange and interesting talents. Either way, they enjoy doing whatever it is that they do.

On May 7-9, stud en ts performed "The Spectre Bridegroom." Theatre teacher Carol Svoboda, directed the spring play. The play was set in a rundown castle in Germany at the turn of the century. "The Spectre Bridegroom" is an on the edge of your seat comedy. It was written by Christopher Cartmill, a Southeast distinguished alumni who came to work with the cast during the week before the performances.

Two talent shows were held this year: Knight of Knights and Benefit Night. Student talents were highlights of both shows. Benefit Night, sponsored by Students for Peace • raosed funds to help children in war-torn countries to work together. Whether you knew or not Southeast's oldest club is the synchronized swimming team. SynkraKnights senior member, Laura Olson said, "Synchro is hard work, it's tough to hold your breath, kick your legs, get across the pool, and come up smiling like nothing happened." She also stated, "The routines themselves aren't hard but there is a lot to concentrate on."

>PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT Members of SynkraKnights , practice their routines after school in the Southeast pool.

you got puff'd! POWDERPUFF

At the end of every school year the cheerleaders ask a guy to perform in the powderpuff pep rally. The guys would practice outside of school to prepare them for the 2004 pep rally. The guys learned different cheer techniques and jumps.

"I loved watching us guys try to cheer like girls," said junior Charlie Shreve.

RALLY 2004

"I liked being around all the good looking cheerleaders," said junior Garrett Ely.

"It was funny, during our first practice, we had no clue how to cheer," said freshman Zach Munford.

All of the boys seemed to have fun, but Matt Clare said, "It's embarassing."

"A Knight Under the Stars", holding true to every prom theme incorporating the word "Knight" into it, was a special evening in students hearts. Held at Pershing Auditorium, students were welcomed by great decorations and a DJ that was "off the hook" according to junior Maggie Sahele. "The dance was a lot of fun once people got into it," said junior Nicole LeGault.

After the entire affair, Post Prom was off to the rescue. Boasting food, fun, and games, many students prom nights culminated in a tranquil Hawaiian paradise at Prasch gym. "The game§ were so fun," said senior Jessica Berndt. "It was a great way to wind down the evening." Many students spent their times scaling the obstacle course or sumo wrestling with their friends.

Prom definitely was a night to remember. "I've never been so tired, but yet I've never had so much fun," said senior Sarah Statton. by Audrey Farnham

TRACK AND FIELD ATHLETES HIT THE WALL AND RUN THROUGH IT

Knight runners , throwers and jumpers walked onto the track this spring with quite a reputation to defend. The girls entered the 2004 season looking for their fourth straight state title. The men set out to prove that new schools in the city could take nothing away fromt he tradition of Southeast track.

There is always something for everyone on the Southeast track team , and there were nearly as many reasons for joining the squad as there were people . " I went out for track because I wanted to get in shape ," said sophomo r e John Stull. " It was a great experience for me and I made a ton of friends. " "I just like to run ,"

said freshman Josh Rauner , who primarily ran the grueling 3200 meter run this season. Both the girls and boys teams showed great improvement from beginning to end. Although the numbers of both teams have decreased in past years, athletes from both sides pointed out that the team was about quality, not quantity.

"We only had a few girls , " said senior and four-time track athlete Alison Hill, " but the people we had could score a lot of points. "

"We had many outstanding athletes that went out and scored points for the team ," said Adam Cheever , a sophomore.

LEARNING TO KICK IT

The season started off great and ended with an even greater victory friendships.

The Reserve girls had a lot of fun and tried their best. They may not have won every game but playing together was an awesome experience for the girls. Brittany Gregson said, "All the girls had played soccer before and most of them joined to have fun and make new friends doing it!"

The boys on the other hand were more serious when it came to practice and worked really hard to suceed. Jarret Hayes said, "I have been playing soccer for all my life; it made sense to go out for LSE!'' Varsity Boys started off with a 3- l victory over Columbus! The boys kept their heads high and the victories kept on coming.

The team practiced hard . "Practices were two hours every day after school at Standing Bear park," said senior Adam Letheby. Senior Jared Nielson said, "Playing soccer has been my life's sport so why not try for LSE and what I had was a blast!"

The Girls varsity began with a rough loss to Columbus. But they kept there spirits alive and did their best! Junior Maddie Covalt said, "My most memorable moment was scoring a header goal against Lincoln High." Senior Liz Osterman said, "My most memorable moment was when I broke my hand!"

All the teams had a great seasons. They gained a lot of memories and friendships that will last forever.

toughing it out

Bovs GOLF STAYS STRONG THROUGH TOUGH TRIALS

Th i nk golf is just for old men? Think again. The JVNars ity golf team is out to dispel! this and other myths regarding this gentleman ' s sport. Think golf is boring? If so , then you've obviously never seen this team play.

According to sophmore Cliff Trehearn the team ' s goal is to "play our best to acheive the Southeast standard." Trehearn also stated that they stay motivated to do this by "competing week to week for varsity spots for tournaments."

However no season is without problems, and an injury to junior Joe Kubick is one of multiple setbacks the

team must work to overcome. According to Kubick , "We make it through bad times by making jokes and making fun of ourselves. "

According to junior Matt Rosno , " seldomly hitting a good shot motivates him to play well."

Despite all the setbacks this team has faced, their unity, strengthened through team dinners and playing basketball together, seems like it will prevail. Despite his broken hand , Kubick wants to "tough it out for the team ." With this attitude, the sky 's the limit.

PLAYING THE GAME THEY LOVE--AS A TEAM

W i th the sound of the m etal bats crack i ng , the ball land ing in the tough leather glove of an outf i elder , and the ump calling the out , the Knights baseball team ran out of the dugout for another successful season

Although the team faced a tough line up , they stayed strong as a team and played the i r hardest. The guys knew that they couldn 't get down , even if they were losing They had to stay motivated to finish the game strong. The team found motivation in many places, from teammates to friends , to the simple fact that they were playing the game they loved "Just being out on the field is motivation enough for me. If you love to play then you don 't need much outside motivation , you just have it ," said junior short stop Zach Messman.

Sophomore pitcher and first baseman Craig Gertch added , "just playing the game gets you going. When I step on that mound , my adrenaline gets pumpin ' and I' m ready to play ."

No matter how much motivation the Kn ights had when they stepped onto the field , they needed to work together to come out on top The team tried their hardest , and even when a win was not the result , the guys pulled together as one unit , cheering each other on home.

When the game started to get rough , and errors were being made , it was a necessity that they helped each other out and made sure everyone stayed focused . "Chip Healey , Danny Kuzma , and Craig Gertch--these guys always tried to keep everyone ' s head up , even if they made an error ," said Messman. This kind of team support allowed the Knights to become a team.

By looking at the record , a successful season might not be seen, but with a closer look , the true success of the guys as a team is found. They played the game they loved , and as senior catcher and outfielder Scott Hottovy stated , "I play the game for the team , not myself."

LSE PLAYS IN THEIR OWN "FIELD OF DREAMS"

Baseball is America's favorite pastime, and forever will be. As long as there are players like the boys at Southeast. Reserve player John Kampfe said, "I really like the sport, and everyone is really fun to hang out with." While some Knights play baseball for fun, had a passion for it, like reserve player Joey Camarata, "I play for the love of the game." Whether their reason for playing was to have fun or a true love of the game, Southeast never had a problem getting these boys to play. Even when they didn't always win, morale was high. "We'd just cheer each other on and keep going." said JV player, Marcus Cech.

JV player Mike Zabel said, "The best thing about baseball is playing with my friends. The team is pretty cool, we just have a lot offun." The friendships are strong on and off the field, and the boys really did get along. Each complemented each other on their game and even gave pointers. Which leads to the coaches. Because, no matter how much talent these boys had, it's the coaches who taught them how to perfect their skills. The coaches were, Chad Blatchford, Michael Goodrich and Gene Lessman. "Coach Goodrich and Coach Lessman are great coaches," Camarata commented.
