Leading the varsity volleyball team to a 6-8 record were standouts Cindy Murphy, Most Valu- able, known for her awesome hits in every game, jackie Eastburn, captain, Donna Poore, Most Im- proved, and Pam Kling, a spark plug off the bench. This team won the consolation bracket of the Garden Grove-Los Amigos tournament and also placed fourth in the Canyon Invitational. Another outstanding game was the upset of undefeated Villa Park in round one-Canyon's best effort of the sea- son. The junior varsity girls' volleyball team finished their season with a 6-8 record under the coaching of Carla VanRy. Coach VanRy's famous quote dur- ing practices was, Oops, lost my head. Kris Nelson was voted Most Improved team member. The most inspirational award was given to Michele Martin. Natalie Harlow was the proud re- cipient of the coach's award. Other girls com- mended for their outstanding efforts were captain Kyla Woods and co-captain Sandi Eastburn. The most outstanding match of the year took place against Villa Park when Canyon came from behind 12-2, 11-4, to win 15-12, 16-14, an example of great team work. The team did a super job and the outlook for next year is excellent. 1. Olga Martinez makes a last minute attempt to get the ball up and over. 2. vARslTY VOLLEYBALL TEAM - from row: coach Wood, B.

'MA ll SI Concluding with a season of six wins and six losses, Canyon's swim team had a substantial sec- ond year. Under the coaching of Ted Ondracek and Steve Anderson, Dale Turner qualified for CIF diving competition, the first Canyon swimmer to do so. Other outstanding season performances in- cluded senior Chuck Lay who set four individual records, among them the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events. Additionally, senior Ron Cheser broke all Canyon records in the 200-yard individual medley, a combination of butterfly, backstroke, breastst- roke, and freestyle. Cheser was also one of the four swimmers who set Canyon's new 400-yard team medley relay, along with Vaughn johnson, Wayne Ozaki, and jim Marion. Since only four seniors-Ron Cheser, Ron Gil- lespie, Chuck Lay, and Dale Taylor-will be leaving, coaches Ondracek and Anderson look forward to next season as a culmination of the past season's groundwork and training. 1.
