Although they haven't known each oth cr for a long ttme (they met their sophomore year in high school), their friendship is sure to be lifelong. "Barry and Jamison met during the summer before I got here, said Gosma. "Then I met Barry and he Introduced me to Jamison. Once we met each oilier we started doing things with each other and formed an inseparable bond. We just became family." "We hit it ofT," Murphy said. That explains why they call themselves the three musketeers. Ihe three have many things in common, including growing up as "Air force brats." furthermore, they each have also had a dream to attend the Air Force Academy. And their dreams are coming true at the same time. All three were accepted into the Air f orce Academy and reported to Colorado Springs, Colo. Iasi month. What is even more remarkable than these best friends making it into the Air force Academy is that they all attended the same high school, Nonhridgc. "You'll probably never see another high school in the Utah area having that many students selected to one academy." said John I licks, the boys' admissions liaison officer and a 1978 graduate Academy. "That'a very very unusual." Hicks attributes ihe high school's success to many things. "I think it's their curriculum, I think it's their teachers, I think it's parents, port of the PTA and Ihe community, 1 think it's all that," he said, "I think its the studentx, too." If I hod to point credit in one direction, I think it wuul J be the ROT C," Covina laid, With the classes we were taught in leadership education and stuff like that, 1 think helped us through a lot of the situations that we were facing as students outside of ROIC." The application process started In the winter part of their junior year. Kicks saw them through their senior year. What we (admissions officers) do Is more than just get kids into the Academy, we direct kids." Iluks said.
