His words were prophetic since the team, for the first time, cinched their goal to go to the CIF play-offs. They finished with an overall 13-6 record. They attained this goal by practicing at least ten hours a week, working on ball handling, sprint- ing, passing, and shooting. The team is small but strong with an awesome offense, commented Cap- tain Tim Lovell. They proved this with their suspenseful game against Ramo- na, which was the game they had to win to go to CIF. The game went into I double overtime with Arlington clinch- ing the win with a score of 12-11. The team established a closeness after working and playing those long hours. Rob Platner, a returning player, commented, We ' re like a family with Pat being our coach and second fa- ther. w Defying two defenders. Brad Cargal catapults the ball for an awesome goal • ■ .
