LASKO FAMILY KOSHER TOURS
Presents
WINTER VACATION AT THE
Society and was Phi Beta Kappa.
Eddleston earned entry into Harvard.
Spaulding attends Wayne State
University.
Future Goals
While both Spaulding and Eddleston
continue to mix athletics and acade-
mics, only Spaulding is playing a var-
sity collegiate sport.
Eddleston enrolled in Harvard with
the hope of achieving his dream of
playing college football, on the strength
of his strong senior season at
Cranbrook. But a chronic shoulder
problem, his bout with mononucleosis
and a desire to focus on academics
altered those plans. He says he may try
out for Harvard's JV basketball or
lacrosse squads later in the academic
year.
In the meantime, he keeps busy via
intramural sports. "I'm kind of spear-
heading the intramural movement in
the dorm," he says. "It's a pretty big
thing at Harvard. All the freshmen
represent their dorm ... Every week
I'm pretty much playing ultimate fris-
bee — which is like a game of soccer
with a Frisbee — and football and
soccer. So I'm staying active in that
respect.
"But I'm starting to focus more on
academics, especially here, because it's
such a prestigious place and, obvious-
ly, it's rigorous."
Eddleston misses football, especial-
ly playing quarterback. "That's some-
thing that I truly loved. When I go
and see football games, it's not as
much that I'm really watching the
game as much as I'm watching the
quarterback."

Spaulding is continuing her hockey
career at Wayne, which features the
only women's Division I hockey pro-
gram in the state. "I just love playing
the game," she says. She earned a pair
of assists in her first two college hock-
ey games.
With no in-state competition,
Wayne's road trips are long. The team
will travel throughout the Midwest
and along the East Coast this season.
Spaulding will have to balance her
academic requirements with travel,
games and practice.
"We have a tight schedule when
we're away," she says. "Our coaches
are real strict about academics. We
have to bring our homework along
and do it on our break time. But it's
manageable," she added, following
her first road trip, to Minnesota.
Spaulding is studying elementary
education.
Eddleston's path is different. His
interests range from law to social
studies to medicine.
Both Eddleston and Spaulding
have a desire to coach youth sports in
the future. "It's kind of like my vicari
ous way to keep playing the sports
that I played," Eddleston explains.
"Sports can teach you how to deal
with hard times and how to deal with
positive times," Eddleston says. "It
keeps you on an even keel."
Spaulding enjoys "making so many
friends from all over. Girls that I've
played with the past few years are all
across the country right now, playing.
So whenever we play other teams from
other states, I'll recognize a face. It's
kind of interesting, to know that we've
all gotten to that point and spread out
and then gone our separate ways.
"Sports," she says, "have also
helped me become more competitive.
I try to be the best that I can."
