In June of 1982 Kim played with the Cal Juniors Vollevball Club instructed by USC and ASU coach, Steve George. Her 15 and under team placed seventh in the Junior Olympics, a national tournament. In July Kim ' s 1 7 and un- der team won the national title and was fea- tured in the October issue of Women ' s Sports. In Brahma volleyball, Kim made all- tournament at the Valencia tournament. Win- ning titles gave Kim the opportunity to travel nation-wide. Doubling up with volleyball, Kim also par- ticipated on the 15 and under Southern Cali- fornia basketball team. In July she went to Boston for the AAU Junior Olympics. The team placed sixth and Kim made All-Ameri- can. Keeping up her tradition, Kim toured to Pheonix in July and made Ail-American with her all-high school Prep team. Slowing things down, Kim came down on a players foot during practice and had third de- gree tears of ligaments in her ankle. Her injury put her on the bench for three and one half weeks. She returned just in time to assist ther Brahma team in CIF playoffs. Torn between two sports, Kim has decided to play only one college game, but she hasn ' t decided which one yet. Scouts have already noticed Kim ' s abilities and have contacted her coaches. She received her first scholarship of- fer at the end of her sophomore year. UCLA, UCI, Cornell University (N.Y.), University of Hawaii, Louisiana Tech, and Cal State Long Beach are only a fraction of the schools that are interested. Being a loyal Brahma, Kim took presidence in her D.B.H.S. sports. When high school sea- son was over she went all out. I remember one Sunday I had a four hour morning volley- ball practice and after that played in two bas- ketball games. I was dead! Kim exclaimed. With both activities it ' s a challenge for Kim. Surprisingly, she managed to keep up a 4 0 G.P.A. and have fun with her friends.
