Strong Team Excels With ten players returning from last year's second place squad, the Badminton Team was well prepared for another out-standing season. Led by seniors Loranne Klausmeier, Cathy Shufeldt, and Nancy Unruh, the team held daily after school practices to ensure that all players were ready for each upcoming match. The addition of assistant coach Sandy Haskell was a great asset to the team. Having been in the CIF finals last year representing Cres- centa Valley, she brought excellent drills and strategy maneuvers to practices that were a benefit to the entire team. The toughest competition came from Hoover and Crescenta Valley but the hard work and dedication that was put into each practice paid off as the Badminton Team proved to be one of the best in the league. ABOVE CENTER: A singles game of badmin- ton can have you running all over the court. Here, Cathy Shufeldt is caught off balance by her opponent's shot but she still manages to return a deep clear that gives her time to get back into a better position. ABOVE: Madeline Fernandez is forced to leap high in order to return a high clear. RIGHT: Getting low for the return of a doubles serve, Nancy Unruh prepares to hit a drop shot just over the net while partner Madeline Fernandez intently keeps her eye on the birdie.
