Mom-Thanks for always pushing me so hard ... you were right, it does help you in the long run! Jerry-"Maybe it was that sensor, or was it that pump? Oh well! We'll just replace them one by one till we get it to work the way that we want it to!" Ms. Bleifuss-You have been the best mentor that anyone could ever ask for. Mike-There was this famous quote from the movie "Tremors II," It went something like this ... "I ran completely out of ammo, that's never happened to me before, ever." Kolin-Are your pants still tingling? Will-If you ever get bored and need something to do, you can try to take me on in a driving simulator, because I know better than to take you on in a flight simulator. And yes cars will fly in the future. I think that you have to add more than just wings on them though! Leah-No one will make fun of you in that short skirt if you put it in your senior page.:) And make sure to take care of that teddy bear.

John-RIC is my life and everything else is my hobby!!!! Travis-Aamir still has the head of the class- what are you going to do about that? Bill W.-Poooooooof- BARK!!! Everyone that I left out-I wish you luck on all of your endeavors.

Mom & Larry- Sometimes I really thought I wasn't going to make it. Oddly, I am not talking about my career at Wayland. I am talking about the time you rescued me from inside the dishwasher when I was a toddler; the time you rushed me to the hospital after splitting my head open; and the time you came and got me when the road had flooded. It' s what you do, and it' s what you' ve always done-watch out for me. There were those times when I thought that you had abandoned me- when you didn ' t pick me up from preschool on time; when I woke up alone in the house; when I was so sure that you would never return from that Christmas party. But you both have always come through. Thank yo u for making me the strong woman I am, intelligent in my decisions and honest in my work. Thank you for canng enough to whoop me when I needed it, but also congratulating me when it was deserved. I know how much of a sacnf1ce It was for you to send me both financially and emotionally.

I hope that I have made it worth the struggle. I appreCIate everything you 've done to help me be here, but moreover, what you did to help me be successful in the world.

You truly are wonderful parents. Thank you for only being at the neighbors when I woke up alone, thank you for always helping me maneuver out of danger. P.S.: Mom, sorry about making yo u worry (can we say Orlando?) and Larry, sorry I never became a cowgirl, but you got something better- a crafty little girl who is excellent at carving things into window sills. !love you both.

Josh- Ok, besides that little eight month haitus of refusing to talk to you, we've had a great childhood. We've grown up, though, and I couldn't be more proud of my big brother. You have always watched out for me, if we just ignore those little incidents of throwing me into closet doors and hitting me in the face with golf clubs. Don' t worry, I still love you and I am happy we have gotten so close.! wi ll always be your Iii' sis and couldn' t have asked for a better big brother. I'll forever cling to you.

Taffy- My identical twin sister! I love you to death! Thank you for all the emails and terrific sisterly advice. Oh and thank you for always being the kind siblin g (as opposed to Josh who loved flipping me over in the shopping carts) Thanks for your non-abusive tendencies. (stamps are great!)

Meghan- My little megamo?, magpie, megzilIa, miss meghan, megharoru- coula I make you sound anymore like a little kid? But we're not little baby girls anymore! We are grown, mature, young women ... uh, who just happen to have an uncontrollable giggle side, a fetish for random acts ofcrawlingdown the hallway, and love for frosted flakes. (hee hee) And I know we have had our blowups in the past, but just remember-l'm not the one with tnewater buckets. But on a more serious note, thank you for all the love & support, I would have lost it without you. But after our invention of the shower charade, (what can ya do, we just love showers) I tl'link its pretty arguable that we did lose our minds regardless. You are my best friend, even if you never go platinum: But honestly, you are my other half and I will forever thank you for being there for me.

Zan- I want my boat! Where' s my boat?

Ahh, the woman after my own heart. Just remember we' ll always be glamour queenseven with psycho curls. We' ve been through some crazy times- sorry about that book fthrew at you when we were fighting that one time. Nevertheless, "You're my little trofhy!" I actually am yours ... Comparin g ge products. You may be the youngest, but you are not the most innocent! For quite some time we were on the same level- but you had to go and get a hole in your boat, attempt to swim upstream, and then get stuck in stagnant water! Way to go sweets!

But !love you thanks for all our crazy times.

Take care and see you in California!

Laura, Tomoko, & Erin- My little sweeties.

Field hockey will always be something to remember. Erin stay outta trouble and take a karate class so you can actually back up all your smack talk :) Tomoko- we survived warren, you made it all easier. Stay sweet!

Laura- roomies forever! Spazmatic! What color children are playing in the street?

Natalia- One word: EEEEWWWW!!!! Oh my little daughter! My tanning buddy, my Spanish tutor & mini-me. Why don't you "schooch" on over. ha ha 1 Porque no? Porque si? Pe-coooock! Take care my little munchkin, afways know how much I love ya. Te quiero mas que ayer. .

Danielle- You take care my little one. I am so happy you decided to stay- you always know how to make me Iau!?h. And remember all those times I wouldn't let you 111 the pool for not doing a certa111 someth111g?

It was for your own good, I promise. Thank you for always being my confidant- and hey! Wanna dnve to Chicago? Make sure we have a ton of change! You are the best and you 've kept me grounded.

Adrell- Thanks for waiting for me. You are one of my greatest influences of strength, love, and perseverance. I couldn't be more thankful for what we have learned from each other, and the stability we achieved in our relationship. I will not wri te everything I need or want to say- that's for another time. I thin!< we both know what we've found, and the fact that by sequence of events our two worlds met. I "Yill forever think of you as one of the greatest people I ve ever encountered, and know that I love you. P.S. (couple things- the blue shorts, "rehabilitation", running tights, "the pictures", and doctor' s like their patients.)

Meghan T., Darcy, Abbi- You girls a;e the cutest and the craziest! Thanks for all your little VISits when we're on duty and crazy nights in the dorm. Take care of each other and don ' t worry- some day I'll adopt you. Loves!

Terrence- Hey, nice "heels". I thoroughly enjoyed our eccentric talks before Spanish, and looks like you'll have to find somebodynew to decipher your stories. Thanks for all the advice- or maybe It would be better called "all the times I made you tell me and forced it out of you!" You really are a piece of workbut don't worry- Your secrets are safe with me. At least until you' re famous and rumors about you miraculously resurface. (N-Sync-need I say more?)

Jordan E.- "Can I talk to your mom?" It' s been a pleasure knowing you since freshman year. Especially since we have the best names 111 the world. And Its O.K., I understand that you wish you had been born a girl Jordan . And for goodness sake, "Stay away from brunettes, they are nothing' but trouble.'

"But those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength; They will mount up with wings on eagles; they will run and not be weary; They shall walk and not be faint" -Isaiah 40:31

Daniel Fourness

As I sit here with Alkaline Triton on repeat, attempting to write my statement that sums up my high school career, I can't help but think that I am lucky to have been here. So many people have had such a profound, positive influence on my life that it almost makes me forget the ignorant majority that have made my life a living hell the past three yeas. But, aside from that, there are too many people to thank and too many memories that would be cheapened by the mere fact that I am mentioning them. My friends know who they are and they know how much they mean to me. There is nothing more to say.

"I do what I want. I can't predict the future. I don't care' cuz I know they're all liars ... Correction- I need no correction. Let me go just one last time. I spent my whole life looking for direction, just let me go one last time."

-Let Me Go-Rancid "Regrets, I've had a few-but then again, too few to mention . I did what I had to do, saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course, each careful step along the by-way. And more, much more than this, I did it my way."

-My Way-Frank Sinatra "I never talk when I am ignorant."

-Creon from Oedipus

Do not judge your life on outcomes or tangible things. Judge it by your feelings about yourself and the effort that you give each day. Do not give into the pressures of life. Fight back with every ounce of power you have. Don't stop working until you feel you have accomplished your goal.

Charlie Mom & Dad- Thank you for all the help you guys have given me over the years. You two did a much better job raising me than you some times think. Well, than I act anyway ... Dad, you helped me with my individualism, Mom, you made me push myself.

Even though I complained a lot, it helped me in the long run, so thanks.

Mike- You are the craziest person in the world, as well as reckless, accident prone, and often a complete fool. All the more entertaining when you are my brother. You be careful not to cut off any limbs, or failing that, not get yourself killed. Dog fights are not fun to leap into, and sharp objects are to be treated with care.

Heather M.- My first love. I do not think I could say anything new here, but I will say this . I love you, more than anything else in the world. I hope you know that, and never forget it.

Dana- You have the inherent ability to be cute. I wish I had that. Combined with your charisma, patience, and genuine concern for others, you will go far in life. I'm counting on it, so please don't make me look stupid(er).

Terry- You have said and done some of the stupidest things over the last four years. Well, so have I, so we will leave it at that.

Any time you want to go one-on-one in a simulator, understand that you have set yourself up to be humiliated.

Mr. Kasper- You are probably the most frustrating teacher that I have ever had. Nothing was ever good enough for you! I am just surprised at how all the things that gave me headaches when I was in your classes stuck. I guess drilling them into my mind with never ending homework and impossible te sts worked pretty well. So, well done, and thank you.

Other Faculty- You all put up with me for all four years ... That takes determination and skill, so you can consider yourselves an elite few. By the way, I never whine; I just complain as often as needed to feel smarter than you make me seem.

People who ever worked with me- You have my sincere apologies and sympathy. I hope you all understand I respect you all (well, most of you). It was crazy some of the time, annoying the rest, with occasional bits of fun. That's life, I guess ...

Anyone I left out- Sorry. I wish I could say a little something to each of you, but I don' t think that I have the time, memory, or wit. Take care of yourselves, be good, and don' t do anything I would do . By the way, my sense of humor is fine ... it's just you guys don't get it.

To those loved and lost- I miss you all. Someday we will be able to remember the good times together. Till then, I keep you in my thoughts.

If any of you want to write me, I'm at rogueledr@hotmail.com or rogueledr2002@yahoo.com. I always am willing to talk, if any of you need to. I'll listen, and if you want, I can try to help! Just always remember that to find happiness, you must know yourself.

MPC, JC, AR, AR, LM, TO: You have been like sisters to me. I will miss our never ending talks about the drama we call our life. You have been there to laugh with and given me a shoulder to cry on when I truly needed it. Thanks for always making me look cute, on those few occasions I decided not to be a complete scrub!

JS: At least we got through freshman year. California was fun ... limo, bathroom, Adam's song (I don't remember any of it) . You'll always be my favorite Jew! LR: Will you marry me? .. .. j/k, I swear!

Meghan Patrick-Crane Here's to the night we felt alive Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry Here's to goodbye Tomorrow's gonna come to soon.

-Eve6 Mom and Dad- I know you think that I don't appreciate anything you do, but I can't express how grateful I am to both of you. You've given nothing but your love and support through everything; I would not have accomplished anything without you. Thank you for everything. I love you more than you know.

Mr.Seighman- You've been the best mentor a girl cou1d ask for. Thanks for the hugs and the talks when I needed it most.

To my other half- It seems like I've known you my whole life, but the lifetime is yet to come.

I never knew true friendship until I met you.

We've been through so much together, but no matter how much I write to you or how long this quote is, it could never express how much your friendship and love has meant to me.

Everything I've shared with you and everything I've learned from you will always be with me. You mean the world to me and I love you.

Erin- All I can say is you've become one of my best friends here ... how weird is that? You know I love you. Thanks for being one of the people in the world that I didn' t hate at times. Who's gonna burrito you in college? Zan- "I used to be afraid of the ... " you know how it goes. You always know how to make my birthday perfect! Someday you will realize that you are gorgeous and wonderful and so will the Abercrombie model on page 27 in the next issue of A&F catalog!! I promise!! I can't wait to buy you a boat. I love you and always will. Laura- I can't tell you how happy I am that you came back this year. It gave me the chance to realize that you're one of the best friends I've had here. Some of the best conversations I've had were with you. You are the sweetest person I've ever met, not to mention insane!! Kidding!! I love you. (I love everyone, don' t I?) Mox- I know you hate America, but I'm so glad we connected this year. You' re a person I feel I could tell anything to, thanks for listening. I'm sorry I called you and Eoin "kids" . I don' t think of you that way. You're the coolest chainsaw ever!! I love you, Mox!! Peter- Through the good times and the bad, when it was all said and done, I have never regretted a second of the time I've spent with you.

Whatever happens, I hope friendship is the lasting outcome. You will always be a part of me. Natalia- Mary Lamb, C-L-E-A-TS, Team Colombia, whatcha whatcha!, JUMP!, wop parties, Nelly, kickboxing, summer talks, "Tracy, will you please pull over ... ", roadrunner (didn't we only match that once?), Blow!! .. . Thanks for always making me laugh and for the never-ending fun I always had when I was with you. You taught me how to let go and have fun, but kept me on track when I needed it most and never let me give up. Take your own advice. Danielle- (aka Tigre) My kindred spirit!! You are one of the few people who truly understands me and I didn't think anyone could make me feel as good about myself as you can. Thank you for your comforting words at those times when ... you know what I mean. You are a beautiful person, don' t ever think otherwise. Be your own goddess!! I still am THE goddess, though, right? A.B. and D.T.- Who's going to replace the B.F.F. Prefect ever?? Wait., you'll be prefects. Thanks for the laughs and the fun and respecting me as an authority ... riiiight. I'll miss you guys.

First off I would like to thank all of the faculty of Wayland Academy for making the past four years of my life one of the most memorable and enjoyable experiences. Mr. Seighman: you have been the driving force behind my success here at Wayland, and I want to say thank you. I never could have done it without you. To my parents there are no words that I can say to express the love that I have for you. You have given me one of the best opportunities that anyone can receive. I want to thank you for providing me with the opportunity to come here, and always being there to guide me through the hard times, and also providing me with the guidance needed to proceed on the next step in life. To my family I lov e all of you very much and want to thank you for always being there when I needed you. To all of my friends who have gone before me, I wish all of you the best of luck in your future journeys, and thank you for the experiences that you have given me to make my days better. OJ, EL, CS, AF, JM, and EA what can I say to all of you, you guys are the siblings that I never had, without you I never would have been able to succeed here. You all have taught me valuable lessons that I will take with me for the rest of my life. To all of my other friends that are still here, I need not mention who you are because all of you know how much I value your firendships, without you Wayland would not have been the wonderful life experience that it has been. To the penthouse boys, we have been through lots together, I want to thank you for putting up with me when I was always complaining or starting arguments. You guys were always there to help me through the heard times, and you always knew how to make me laugh. I would not have wanted to share my senior year with anyone else but you.

BRB, I can' t say anything but the fact that I mi ss you very much, you are always in my thoughts. You opened my eyes to a whole new outlook on life and I would like to say thanks for helping me become the person that I am today -RIP. If there is one thing that Wayland has done for me it has made me a better person , I have one piece of advice for all of the kids that think they do not fit in here or want to leave , stick it out and graduate from Wayland. I have been here for four years and I can say that there is no place that I would have rather been .

Jordan Schneider Jin- Thanks for putting up with me last year. I know I am not the easiest person to live with, but I also know that you had a lot of fun (I think) . Sorry for all the nights I kept you up late and for the "lights out shower incidents." Those were HUGE mistakes!

Tilsch- R.I.P. You will be missed by many.

Kristin- Wow, where do I start? In the past two years we've become the best of friends even though we started out as the worst of enemies.

Without you in my life my days would have been boring. Not only that, but they probably would have been spent sleeping or doing homework.

Well, at least sleeping. Together we've been to hell and back. I will never forget some of the experiences we've shared together. I think my greatest high school memories are all pretty much of us.

Thanks for being an incredible friend and a huge part of my life. I hope next year we stay just as close!

Good luck on your senior year and with college.

Schmidt- Even though we have been off again/on again friends our "talks" have meant a helluva lot to me. I'm really sorry about the NYC incident. I promise that one day we' ll have to meet up in the "Big Apple."

Also, I promise that if I decide to get rid of the guitar, it's yours. Have a great summer and gimme a call sometime, you know the number.

Maeve- It's been an interesting year and a half. I don't think I will ever forget that COLD December day in the union. You still owe me a rematch!

Gilbert- Maybe now I will tell you what one is.

You owe me for the window show!

Erin- There's not much I can say to you that I haven't already said. But I will simply say ADAM'S SONG. That and you will NEVER live down Freshman year! You had the biggest crush on me!

I like many things, but I cant have everything, not even most of what I want. One thing that I did get, and I was happy to get; although I didn't expect to get it, was friendship. I've spent a number of years investigating the difference between friendship and love. Rather I found out the power of love; which previously I didn' t care about, but now I do. Yet I still remain self centered. Life is too short, too short to satisfy other people. So I satisfy myself. Yet to enlighten myself, I enlighten others.

Life is too short, too short to confuse other people. So I confuse myself; yet to confuse myself, I confuse others.

"I am alive because I am in love."-Yang Guo (translated by Cen) ''I' m curious." -Richard P. Feynman "HA HA HA ."-Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Three quotes of my heroes that are equal to three of mine. I feel extremely smart and I hope this feeling lasts.

Charles Whitlock

"A harmonica is easy to carry. Take it out of your hip pocket, knock it against your palm to shake out the dirt and pocket fuzz and bits of tobacco. Now it's ready. You can do anything with a harmonica: thin reedy single tone, or chords, or melody with rhythm chords.

You can mold the music with curved hands, making it full and round like an organ, making it as sharp and bitter as the reed pipes of the hills. And you can play and put it back in your pocket. And as you play, you learn new tricks, new ways to mold the tone with your hands, to pinch the tone with your lips, and no one teaches you. You feel around sometimes alone in the shade at noon, sometimes in the tent door after supper when the women are washing up. And if you lose or break it, why, it's no great loss. You can buy another for a quarter."

-The Grapes of Wrath-John Steinbeck "We could never regain the old intimacy with those scenes. It was not any recognition of their beauty and their significance that attracted us, but with communion, the feeling of comradeship with the things and events of our existence, which cut us off and made the world of our parents a thing of incomprehensible to us- for then we surrendered ourselves to events and were lost in them, and the last little thing was enough to carry us down the stream of eternity.

Perhaps it was the only privilege of our youth, but as yet we recognized no limits and saw nowhere an end. We had that thrill of expectation in the blood which entitled us with the course of days."

-Erich Maria Remarque-All Quiet on The Western Front "Just takes lots of practice, the will to beat your face in, get up and try again."

Eric Lackey To my Dad, Mom, and two sisters: I would like to thank you guys for not giving up on me. Through all of your help, perseverance, and as I called constant nagging, I'm definitely a better and stronger individual because of you. Ellie and Catherine, even though it felt like you guys left me to go to college and forgot about me, you didn' t and you cared about me . I know that through time, I'll realize more and more the impact that you all have made on me. Today is now what I have become and who knows what tomorrow may bring .

76 Dedication to Mr. Borrud

Jim Borrud has been a dedicated and loyal teacher at Wayland Academy for many, many years. Through this dedication and hard work the German program has been greatly expanded. Jim has been very instrumental in initiating a program that has allowed many German ~tudents the opportunity to spend a year abroad taking courses here at Wayland Academy. He has also sponsored numerous tnps to Germany for our own students. When German students and faculty have visited Wayland he and his wife Gerda have been generous in hosting them in their horne .

He is also t~e Golf coach. Year in and out his teams have been at or near the top in conference competition. During the past three years his teams have won the conference championship and have gone on to state competition, winning the state title three years ago.

It has truly been my pleasure to have been a colleague and friend of Jim's since he carne to Wayland.

David Kasper

It has been my privilege. and honor to have worked with Mr. Borrud at Wayland Academy. I have known him for many years and have respected his skills as a linguist and teacher. His dedication to the academy and concern for his students are evident in the many hours he has put into the CJD German exchange program and the many other travel opportunities he has provided. Our students appreciate his working tirelessly as a teacher, dormitory supervisor, mentor, and coach. These efforts in and out of the classroom have had a lasting and permanent effect on his students for the many years that he has served Wayland.

Mike Schneider-Foreign Language Department

For four years, Mr. Borrud was my teacher, coach, mentor and friend . Over that period I carne to know a man whose sincerity, camaraderie and encouragement I will not soon forget. As a golf coach, Mr. Borrud was a kind and patient teacher. He was always there to remind me that, inevitably, there were going to be days when I would 3-putt more often than not. It was how I responded on those days would be my greatest measure. The classroom was Mr. Borrud's greatest stage and nowhere did he shine more brightly. His immeasurable love for learning and relentless quest for truth instilled in me a powerful commitment to excellence, knowledge and character. He is a noble father and husband, and exquisite human being. More importantly, he is my friend: a pillar of truth, and the epitome of scholarship.

At the end of the first semester, an event occurred that has only happened 18 times in the storied history of Wayland Academy. Dr. Grieshaber stepped down as President and is moving to Delaware to pursue teaching opportunities at the college level. Under the presidency of Dr. G. Wayland students have become well-oiled machines and the paragraphs below prove that statement to be true.

Among the Academy's many accomplishments during Dr. Grieshaber's tenure were improved results and growth in the number of students taking the Advanced Placement Examination, with 91 percent of those taking the AP examination earn- ____. ing college credit in 2001. The Academy also improved acceptance rates for graduates at the nation's more competitive colleges and universities. Over the past three years, Wayland graduates have been accepted to 42 of the nation's top 100 colleges and universities, as ranked by the US News & World Report's America's Best Colleges guide.

The Academy's athletic program also saw a marked improvement during Dr. G's tenure with a rise in winning percentage of Wayland's sports teams. This improved record has been highlighted by, among other successes, two state final four appearances and one state runner up in boys' basketball (2000), and a golf state championship (1999) followed by two third place finishes in state in 2000 and 2001.

We will all miss the little things Dr. G did such as, those hilarious jokes before each assembly, the wonderful rides to Rotary Club each Monday (you know what I mean if you were a Student Rotarian), and the countless friendly encounters on campus.

His enthusiasm, spirit, and loyalty will be sorely missed.

On behalf of the yearbook staff and the whole Wayland community we would like to thank Dr. G for his six years of dedicated service to the Academy. Your presence will be and has been missed.

Few people have as much insight into what Wayland is about, where it has been or where it is going, than Robert L. Esten '64. He has experienced the school from every angle- first as son and grandson of teachers, then as a day student and alumnus, and most recently as trustee and parent of boarding senior Jordan. This past January, Bob added yet another perspective as the Academy's 18th president in the school's nearly 150-year history. I have known Mr. Esten for nearly six years and in that time he has treated me with the same kindness and warmth in which he treats everyone that he encounters. Whether it is on the golf course, basketball courts, or on the Wayland campus, Mr. Esten's presence is always a welcome sight. Wayland Academy welcome Mr. Esten and wishes him the best of luck during his term as the 18th president of Wayland Academy.

The 2001 Field Hockey team had a good season. This was a developmental year with half the team composed of players who were new to the sport. Under the leadership of captains Jordan Cole, Erin Lamm, and Trina Saladin. The team developed into a viable competitor.

We improved as our season progressed. Our final game displayed that improvement, Wayland's post season tournament game went into overtime and was settle by penalty shots.

Though Wayland lost by one shot, the team showed tremendous teamwork against a team which it had previously lost to.

Wayland completed its season with a 5-4 record and a 4th place finish in the conference. This is Wayland's best record in 17 years. They used a ground attack most of the season behind a big offensive line. The speedy backfield of senior Terrence Robinson-Wilson, Adrell Bullock, Jawonza Brooks, and Gary Gustafson helped pave the way. The future looks bright for the Wolverines because it only loses 5 players off this year's team to graduation. Each conference coach commented on how well our team played and how physical we were.

As a football coach, that is sometimes what makes you proud." At the beginning of the year I told the players that they had to earn the respect of the other teams because of our recent history of not being a very tough team. I believe that we earned their respect," said Hill.

Our season could be characterized by one word, "persistence." We started off slowly with a new coach, a new system and players who have not played together most of their lives. We only had two wins in our first eleven games. Our team continued to press on for excellence. It was a thrill to see this team grow stronger to the point of winning five of our last six games. In the regional tournament, we traveled to Winneconne and defeated them 4-2. Our season came to an end just a few days later when we confronted Xavier, an incredibly strong team that walked away with the regional championship. This Wayland team is one to be incredibly proud of. We ended the season with an overall regular season record of 7-8-2 and 3-4 in our conference. I am truly grateful to have been able to coach this team.

The girls tennis team enjoyed a very successful season with a 4-2 record in conference and an overall record of 8-5. This is a great turn around compared to the 0-8 record last year. The team this year won a triangular meet against Waupun H.S. and St. Mary's Springs. The #3 singles, Darcy Trapp, and the #1 doubles, Emily Rhatican and Maeve Fischer, also qualified for the sectionals. The girls performed much better than anticipated and we look forward to the same effort next year.

The girls played well as a team, and I am proud to call them my friends. The team will really miss our two seniors Leah Martens and Laura Stegeman next year. Their leadership and talent will be hard to replace.

Thanks for a GREAT season girls.

The 2001-2002 boys basketball team finished the regular season with a winning record of 12-7. This year's team was once again led by the stellar performance of Terrence Robinson Wilson. With his leadership, the amazing ball handling of Jordan Esten, and the consistent double digit point averages by Bakary, Darren, and Lawson, Wayland was able to receive a #2 seed in our region for the WIAA state tournament. The bench play of Gary, Adrell, Shawn, and Humza also provided a spark that was essential to our success. We look forward to turning some heads in the playoffs.

The Wayland girls basketball team entered the season with a young and inexperienced group of players. Though the team struggled to a 6-16 record, no players are lost to gradua, tion. With hard work in the off season, there is much hope for a very successful future .

The highlight of the season was a trip to the Bradley Center to play in the Milwaukee Buck's Prep Series. The Wayland girls recorded an impressive win over University Lake School before an enthusiastic crowd of students, parents, and alumni.

This year's season did not get off the ground until after Christmas due to a lack of snow. Duringthelastweekofthe Christmas break the team went to a camp for two intense days of training. The Boys team qualified for the Conference meet and the State meet that was held in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. Leading the team were Jeff Kuehling (first team all conference) and Chuck Whitlock. The Girls team struggled this year because we only had two girls on the team and could not be competitive in meets. As coaches we were exceptionally pleased with our skiers this year. Our expectations at the start of the year were much lower than in other years. Through hard work and dedication, they became one of the better and more respected teams in the conference.

There was a lot of individual improvements with some swimmers cutting as much as 20 seconds off their times by the end of the season.

128 Hanukkah Celebration

Hanukkah is known as the festival of lights. For eight days, starting on December 9th, Jews all over the world began to celebrate . The Wayland Community celebrated Hanukkah this year by inviting Rabbi Kenneth Katz and Meghan Nesbitt to campus to inform us not only about Hanukkah, but also about some of the other customs and beliefs of Judisum. On the second night of Hanukkah, Wayland Academy had its first Hanukkah formal dinner where students and faculty joined together to perform the customs and traditions that make Hanukkah such a unique holiday within the Jewish religion .

We had our fair share of arguments this year.

But as a staff we somehow kept our sanity ...

Except for the times we were screaming at the advisor.

Good luck to you all.

Well, this year started off with a completely new staff, but we learned the ropes easily, and many ways to keep our sanity! I would like to thank the staff for making this yearbook a possibility (even with the scare of eventually not getting one), everyone who kept me from pulling my hair out (Deadlines, guys!), and everyone who has supported me in everything this year. All I can say is that it was quite an experienceYour("Deeditorized" everyday) Editor

A As a yearbook staff, we would like to thank Mr. Lennertz and Mr. Koenig for helping us finish the yearbook on time.

We were expected to spend every waking moment on yearbook, as if we had no lives of our own. Well we didn't, but we still got everything done and! hope everyone appreciates what we had to put up with just to make this yearbook for them.

y k

L To all my classmatesTha nks for maintaining a positive attitude because staying sane in this class was hard. It's been tight.

Ms. Pfister and I were like a married couple. We had our good times but there were far too many disagreements and thus our lovely marriage was cut short. So ladies, I am available.

Peace
