Not only was this a great sea- son interms of the victories but also be- cause the team experienced close unity and strong friendship among the players like they had never seen before. As Coach Bob Fires puts it, "This was a dream year. The way we played and the way we enjoyed each other will always be a blessing." After a very tough season just two years ago, this was definitely a "dream year!" In the NCCAA district championship game, Cedarville faced Taylor University, who had beaten Cedar- ville the previous year in the same situa- tion. In a very close and exciting game, Cedarville defeated Taylor, giving Cedar- ville the championship title and a trip to Tennessee for the NCCAA national tour- ney.
