During the Summer
Fr. David Kenehan, Sr. Joan Allem and Jim Yerkovich went to Washington, D.C. to represent Judge as an honoree of the Exemplary Private School Recognition Program. The school was notified of the designation by Western Union Mailgrams from U.S. Secretary of Education T. H. Bell, a Utah native. The National Catholic Education Association held a reception for the Judge trio and other award recipients. A Salt Lake Tribune article about the recognition quoted Yerkovich citing three scholar-athlete graduates as representative of the type of people Judge produces – Mike Curtin, Paul Giovacchini and Denise Gaztambide – along with current Judge student and basketball player Richard Holmes, who was being recruited by Stanford after recording the highest SAT score in Utah. The celebration of the award continued on Nov. 30, when Secretary Bell came to Judge for an assembly that began with an invocation by retired Bishop Joseph Lennox Federal and performances by the concert band and chorus under the direction of David Asman. Bell spoke, as did Bishop William Weigand, Sr. Joan Allem, Jim Yerkovich, Fr. David Kenehan and student body president John Oliver.
Jill Hull and Nicole Zuchetto represented Judge at Girls State.
The leaking roof was repaired and covered with a metallic silver finish to reflect the sun and keep the building cooler. Building cracks were sealed, the cafeteria was painted and the All-Purpose Room was divided into a reading lab and a social studies classroom to accommodate the growing student body.
Social studies teacher Chuck McKenna took 11 students and two Judge graduates on a 30-day trip through Europe. A visit to the Wimbledon tennis tournament in England was a highlight. Lowlights included a lost passport, lots of rain and poor train service.

Sports
Frank L’Etoile retired after nine seasons as Judge football coach, amassing two state championships, five region titles and an overall record of 72-28. Winning those championships was memorable, he told the Bulldog Press writer Andy Westley, “but I got just as much satisfaction out of the teams that didn’t do that well.” John Colosimo, Class of 1974, was selected as his replacement. L’Etoile’s last Judge team nearly made it to the state tournament but lost the deciding game to Murray. His final season kicked off with a couple of thrillers. Judge looked like it had lost to Jordan 13-12 when a bad snap on a field goal attempt resulted in kicker Kelly Terrill throwing an interception. But a flag on the play revealed Jordan had too many players on the field, so the Bulldogs got another chance. This time, Terrill drilled a game-winning three-pointer. He also had the game-winning extra point in a 14-13 win over South. The injury-plagued team ended up 4-6, dropping its final two games to West (13-6) and Murray (22-21) to miss out on the 3-A state tournament. Judge was led by quarterback Anthony Cordova, running backs Todd Paluso and Greg Hoffman, and veteran linemen Jim Oys, Matt Burkley, Lonnie Ramon and Kevin Moore. Seniors included John Bair, Earle Bevins, Kevin Condas, K.P. Heiner, Mike Marinac, Anthony Mello, Rick Miller, Paul Pazell, Randy Pearson and Jeff Varner. L’Etoile’s assistant coaches were Stan Finn, John Colosimo, Tony Crandall, Galey Colosimo, Dan John, Dick Ruberts, Tim Carr and Ed Kinder.
STATE CHAMPION – Christine Volla, a freshman, captured the state title as the No. 2 singles player to lead the girls tennis team to second place in 3-A. Coached by Ellen Glines, the girls swept to the region title, qualifying for state in all five events. No. 1 singles player Elke Schaumberg, a junior, lost in the finals in a two-hour match while junior Wendy Bevins, at No. 3 singles, sustained an equally hard defeat in three sets. But Volla came through in between those setbacks, lifting the Bulldogs into the runner-up position. Judge also received points from both of its doubles teams, which won their opening-round matches. The No. 1 doubles team featured senior Amy Fleming and junior Wendy Talboys. Sophomores Jennifer Gamble and Kristina Obermann formed the No. 2 doubles team. Also on the squad were senior Lisa Meyers, junior Lisa Nelson, sophomores Lesley deBrier and Jennifer Gamble, and freshmen Lorinda Miller, Christine Volla and Sabina Schaumberg.
The boys tennis team was coached by Bob Juhasz and included John Oliver, Mike Johnson, Jeff Kamnikar, Rob Markosian, Peter Heinbecker, Chris O’Brian, Chris McLaren, Tony Green, Peter Winnett, George Matus and Jerry Seiner.
Eric Houle was the new coach of the boys and girls cross country teams, assisted by alumna Ann Chambers. The boys took third at region with junior Ben Rushing finishing third and preventing Murray from sweeping the top five spots. Senior Joaquin Mixco was 11th and freshman Robert Brooks was 20th, followed by teammates Tim Binning and Felix Salazar. Other runners were John Mason, Joe Walz, Steve Cox, Paul Guenther, Brian Curtis, Joe Coletti, Mike McGean, John Mason and Frank Rice.
For the girls cross country team, coaches Eric Houle and Ann Chambers relied on freshman Jean Gomez, who finished ninth. Sophomore Evelyn Davies and junior Rebecca Rhodes were the next fastest Bulldog runners at the 3-A state meet at Sugarhouse Park. Senior Sheila Corey and sophomore Laurie Hipley also competed for Judge. The rest of the squad included senior Marie Parker and Jennifer Knell, Tory Blackwelder and Mandy Griffin.
Returning starter Jami Adamson and junior Kelly Shaheen were co-captains of the volleyball team, coached by Maureen Eckroth. The squad included Amy Burkley, Amy Adamson, Chalaine Zuchetto, Janelle Jensen, Carol Bertram, Stacy Francone, Amber Rowland and Katy Liston.
Five boy golfers qualified for the 3-A tournament after Judge placed second in region – John Gray, Paul Bruns, Dave Sorenson, Eric Veltri and Tom Narr. Their teammates under Coach Fr. John Norman were Mickey Pierce, Wally Curry, Mike Lyngle, Steve Bonnema, Rhett Curry, Sean Murphy and Peter Benton.
Yet another plan to expand the Judge gym emerged during the fall. This plan envisioned increasing the gym’s capacity from 1,000 to 2,500. Shortly thereafter, the Judge board of trustees also floated the idea of creating a Heritage Fund to upgrade facilities so that present standards of accreditation could be maintained. By mid-December, the architectural firm Scott, Louie and Browning had designed a $4.3 million project that entailed building an enlarged gym west of the existing facility and the demolition of the auditorium and the erection of a new one on the same spot. The west face of the complex would be largely glass overlooking the football field. The fund-raising campaign was seeking $5 million. But as a Dec. 22 Bulldog Press article by Paul Gascoigne noted, “the one major obstacle still hindering the construction is the availability of sufficient funds.” Little wonder then that Fr. David Kenehan opened the article saying “it’s still up in the air as to what can built.”
Seniors Tina Vierra and Jami Adamson were leaders of the girls basketball team, which went undefeated through region play. Coach Maureen Eckroth’s Bulldogs received a boost when junior Kelly Shaheen moved to Salt Lake City from Salina. Shaheen joined seniors Kendra Peters and Julie Quinn, juniors Claudia Cabal and Jennifer Hartigan, sophomores Peggy Hazel, Janelle Jensen, Jennifer Knell, Stacey Lamar, Katy Liston and Kristina Obermann, and freshmen Lilianna Cabal, Julie Jorgenson and Mary Chris Yerkovich on the squad. Eckroth’s assistant coach was Mike Klonizos.
Coach Jim Yerkovich’s boys basketball team posted a 19-1 season record and finished second in the 3A state tournament, falling in the finale to Provo, 59-54. The game was a classic, pitting two undefeated teams against one another. And they both played well – Provo shot 57% from the field, Judge 52%; Provo hit 87% of its free throws, Judge canned 21 of 22. Turnovers were even. In the weekly Green Sheet’s account of the game, the outcome was decided by a referee’s call midway through the fourth quarter. Bulldog star Richard Holmes drove to the hoop, scored and appeared to be fouled. But the referee whistled Holmes for charging, the potential three-point play was wiped off, Provo got a three-pointer of its own first time down court, a six-point flip in a matter of seconds. After Judge missed a shot, Provo ran out the clock.
The Bulldogs were led by a trio of team captains – Holmes, Anthony Cordova and Eric Veltri. The 6-foot-7 Holmes was profiled in The Salt Lake Tribune by Judge alumnus Patti Auer, Class of 1981, noting that he had a 3.96 GPA, the highest SAT score in the state and was the first four-year letterman in Bulldog basketball history. He was on track to set the school rebounding record while averaging 20 points per game. “Richard is very bright and organized,” Yerkovich said. “His real strength is his intelligence and intensity. He gives his best to basketball and to school. He gives his ultimate all the time and is one of the hardest working players I ever coached … the best inside player Judge has ever had.” Holmes set the career record in rebounding (953 in 1981-85.)
Undefeated during pre-league and regular season play, the No. 2 ranked Bulldogs got a scare in the tournament’s opening round, holding on to beat Sky View 63-58 behind Holmes’s 21 points and 12 rebounds. Judge then beat Timpview 70-69 when Cordova hit a 12-foot jump shot with two seconds left and advanced to the finals with a 55-46 conquest of Pleasant Grove. Yerkovich’s squad also included Tom Lytle, Matt Tippens, Dan Del Porto, Paul Bruns, Rick Solvason, Chris Sonne, Garrick Peters and David Pazell. The team went to the A.C.I.T. tournament in Maryland, beating Bishop Walsh 60-53 and St. John Neumann 57-56 sandwiched around a 65-51 loss to St. John. Yerkovich’s assistant coaches were Sonny Tangaro, Galey Colosimo, Stan Finn, Tom Bettin and John Colosimo.
Coached by Mike Kimball, Kathy Wurster and John Bizjack, the gymnastics team featured Noel Yerkovich, M. F. Reeves, Josette Carricaburu, Janet Jorgenson, Jayna Chaffin, Chris Jones, Colette Hanson, Dawn Bonacci, Kristi Herodes, Irene Petersburger, Yvonne DePauli, Steph Vigil, Teresa Friedheim, Jennifer Mollock and Charity Banker.
Seniors Pat Keenan and Tom Narr were the top wrestlers for coaches Chris Long and Jerry Burchett. The squad also featured Dennis Kim, Robert Chacon, Rick Gallegos, Adam Jolley, Peter Benton, Tony Green, Chris Aiello, Mickey Pierce, Eric Wetmore, Jeff Zamora, Kirk Wasdorf, Paul Larrabee, Fred Raso, Mark Mele, Roger Sausedo, Paul Warfield, Eddie Prisco, Bob Bracken and Paul Tafoya.
Michael Lovett coached the swimming team, which sent seven athletes to the 3-A state meet. John Atzet led the boys with a top five finish, while Mark Tyler and diver Dominic Albo were top 10 in their events. Teammates included Ron Varner, Paul Gunther, Jim Pickens, Andrew Lower and Greg Simos.
For the girls swimming team, Cheryl Bylski and Teresa Friedheim finished first and fifth in diving, while Lisa Petersen and Monica Atzet placed in the Top 10 as swimmers. Other swimmers were Liza Marie Garcia, Kelly Pollard, Jenny Frazer and Meg O’Brien.
Coached by Rich Stringfellow and Stuart Reynolds, the soccer team featured Kelly Terrill, Joaquin Mixco, James Beierschmitt, Christian DePauli, Brian Foley, Joey Trueba, Brendan Friar, Mickey Pierce, Brian Jemison, Paul Larrabee, Ron Varner, Adam Jolley, Tom Barrett, Louis Alcas, Steve Cox, John Petersburger, Roque Lachica, Scott Hoge, Robert Vaughn, Chris Tapscott, Chris Mayo, Grant Jensen, Chris Sonne and Paul Bruns.

New York transplant Jon Dale brought lacrosse to Judge. Bulldog Press reporter Joe Walz wrote that when Dale moved to Salt Lake City, he found that Judge classmate Todd Pace was one of the few people acquainted with the sport. They decided to form a team. Fr. John Norman was their moderator.
Phil Bohn and Chris Sutton were two Judge students playing boys club lacrosse.
