VOLLEYBALUTH E VARSITY Even Record Disappointing After many early morning practices from 6:30 to 8:00, the girlslvarsityxvol- leyball team ended with an average record. Our record stayed even-up throughout the season, said coach Suzie Lynch. Basically we rocked back and forth. The team ended its season with an even 13-13 record and an even 8-8 dis- trict recordq The team attended three tournaments in which they placed at one. The team received consolation at the Dulles tour- nament where they beat the home team in three close games. Aldine had lost in the first round to the team that later A won the tournament. Pam Renfro was selected the all-tournament player at Dulles.'They also attended tournaments at Klein and C. E. King. Coach Lynch said she had expected a better performance by the team this year with four returning players. The varsity finished the season fifth in the nine team district. Also during the season the varsity and l.V,.teams sponsored a bake sale to raise money to paint the dressing room and to install two new coke machines. its 1 Below: Sherri Bell, chosen as the only setter on the all-district lirst team, bump sets the ball to Susan Spence. . ,ig Above: Susan Spence, selected to the all dis- trict second team, spikes the ball to Fort-st Brook, a team the Mustangs lost to in both opening rounds ofdistritt play.
