hat kind of girl would stay after school to run up and down a basketball court? A varsity basketball player of course! Girl's Varsity Basketball, under the coaching of Mr. Gary King, got off to s slow start but'by their sec- ond game, they were moving along when they beat Greenway. I think we have a really good team this year. With a lot of prac- tice and hard work, I think we have a good shot at the division champs again, Coach King states. This year's team consists of twelve members who practice ev- ery day for long hours. I wouldn't do it if I didn't love it. The work, sweat, agony, and pain are worth it especially when you beat a tough team. I guess you just have to have a lot of dedication, Renata Cannon, senior explains. Dedication is definitely what it takes to become an outstanding member on the team. The girls started practicing four weeks be- fore their actual games began. The girls work really hard and I am proud of them no matter if they win or lose. Of course, I am hap- piest when they win, but even when they lose I know that they dio the best they could do, comments Coach King.

ifi : ff ? sis- G G e have a balanced team. More talent and height than before, That's what Mr. Don Cline, girl's JV basketball coach says about this year's team. The girl's JV and freshmen basketball season starts February 29 and ends the last of April. A few of the games that will be the hardest for the girl's are the ones against Xavier, Horizon, and Thunderbird. They have always been the toughest ones to beat in our league, Coach Cline comments. The freshmen are coached this year by Mr. Mark Palombo. l'm really looking forward to this season. l'm sure we'll do better than anyone expects us to, states Coach Palombo. It takes a lot of hard work, long hours, sweat, and pain to become a good basketball player and that's what these girls are striving for. So, are there any outstanding players? With the season just starting, it is difficult to say who is outstanding. There are those who show promise though, says Cline. The junior varsity and freshmen girls are the rising stars for next year. Their hard work and dedication will pay off during the season and next year. 'WZ , .. 54 ..
