Unity and spirit brought the girls golf team IMPROVEMENT and some unforgettable events on the course. What was it like to be stuck at a truck stop with a broken van in the late hours of the night? Most high school students wouldn't have liked it. But the girls golf team experienced that event along with plenty of other fun” times through- out the season. Even though the size of the team was restricted to eight members, fun times were their specialty. They were a super group of girls. Just a super bunch ' com- mented Coach Barrett. Fun times weren't just try- ing to get to their matches. There were some on the course as well. They had memorable wins over Mesa High which brought them the city championship. They also placed 7th in the state tour- nament. Long hours were spent in practice on applying the perfect swing” to their game. That swing seemed to help the members im- prove their game. As a whole we improved. said Julie Lear. Exciting times and new ex- periences kept them busy all through the season, but they still concentrated on better- ing their goals on their quest of rising to the top. Design by Brad Treptow.
