And Their Relevancy To The
Olympics : A 7 page paper which examines how important
high school athletics, and athletic programs, are in training
individuals for the Olympics. While most people would
assume that high school athletics have little influence on an
individuals desire, or ability, to perform in the Olympics, the
fact is that an individual who is interested, and capable, of
performing well in any athletic capacity will first
demonstrate those abilities early in life. Often if the urge or
ability is not fed during the early years, especially high
school years, then the ability goes unchallenged and the
opportunity to succeed in a competition such as the
Olympics, is lost forever. High school athletics are essential
to the success of Olympic participants. Bibliography lists 5

Should Drug Testing Be Required of High School
Athletes? : A 9 page paper arguing against the blanket
testing of high school athletes for indications of drug use.
The proliferation of drug use among athletes has caused many
to decide that all of them should be tested, regardless of age.
There are many reasons, however, that high school athletes
should be exempted from such testing, not the least of which is the
Fourth Amendment. Even though the Constitution protects
the countrys citizens from undue search, there are other
reasons to abandon drug testing of high school athletes, most
of which revolve around lessons in physiology and the
possibilities of economic gain from high school contests.
