The battle in Wal- dron February 2 continued the Lady Kittens bad luck; their season record stood at 0-6. By the end of the first quarter the Bullpups had taken a ten point lead that they would not relinquish, and the Lady Kittens never pulled closer. Waldron then coasted to a comfort- able win, 41-16. The stats also showed Waldron's domination over the Lady Kittens. Waldron made 36 percent of their free throws while the Lady Kittens only made 28 percent. We started out with only four ninth grade girls out of twelve, so it's obvi- ous a lot of eighth graders saw a great deal of action this year. We're just young and inexperienced, but the young playing will help us down the road, Coach Pr wq explained-----.... 5iedra Frost had the top scoring average at 5.3 pet- TiTe the two top re- bounders were Tiffany Ju- lien with nine per game, and D'lisa Rayborn with four. Rayborn, an eighth grader said, Most of the girls are already looking to next year, but we all work hard, and going through these losses together has really brought us closer as a team.

Despite rough start «Si Kittens come '. - • r 0c ■ r j ■ V ■i ..y Ji. r'jfSJs'f-'S For a game that didn't start out right, the result proved that beginnings don't always decide the final score. The Junior boys Basketball team finished off Su- biaco 34-28 in a come-back. The Kittens struggled in the first half with only one field goal; the turning point came in the second quarter with a rally of ten points from the two-two-one press. Brandon Barnard successfully shot a three-pointer with three seconds to the half, placing Booneville on top 12- sulting in a three-point play. Toward the end of the third, the kittens went to their “spread offense. But two turn overs from Booneville enabled Subiaco to cut Booneville's lead to five. As the clock clicked down to three, Wright faked a shot, then dropped off to a wide-open Hall for two. Most of the final quarter was spent at the free-throw line, as the Trojans be came frustrated. The Kittens won 34-28. By Tresa Adair 9.

You're tearing down the court with the ball. The perfect shot is in sight. You're almost there. Up, up, you shoot the ball — only to come down on your ankle, spraining it for what seems life. I jumped up to contest this girl's shot. I came down on my ankle. Need- less to say, I managed to pull both ten- dons, explained Tresa Adair. Although sports seems to be mostly fame and glory, it has its disadvantages as well. Injuries can set athletes back. The coaches have weight lifting pro- grams to help athletes achieve a higher quality of fitness so that an athlete will be able to heal quicker. Injuries bring about unfortunate cir- cumstances. Scott Webb, one of the Cats' best receivers was carried off the field on a stretcher during a conference game against Ozark and taken by ambulance to the city hospital. Three of his verte- brae were knocked out of place. His big- gest concern at that moment was, atten- dants recalled, his jersey being cut off. Coach Scheel will really get me. I thought it was over, for good, remem- bered Scott. After having surgery on his knee, Ty Hampton commented, It's really easy to get out of shape, not to mention how weak my knee was. Dr. Doug Parker of Fayetteville, AR, established a Physical Therapy Depart- ment at the Booneville City Hospital, which opened February 1, 1988. Teresa Prewett, who worked under Dr. Parker, runs the Therapy Department and at- tends the games. The quicker the ath- lete gets medical attention the quicker he will recover and start playing again, commented Ms. Prewett.
