A Very Spirited Team Take me out to ihe ballgome. Take me out witti ttie crowd. Wtiat crowd? remarked shortstop Margaret Ziegler. A crowd was the only thing the Varsity Softball Team lacked this year. Fortunately, however, the team moti- vated themselves. We ' re a very spirit team , outfielder Cyndi Ehlers stated, We cheer each other. Motivation was a key factor which helped the team achieve its goals. Realistic goals of the team were first place in league and definitely going to C.I.F., commented Margaret Ziegler. Coach Watson added, We ' re a young, good, quick team that will do very well. Quickness was the main asset speedsters as Shelley Gallagher, Margaret Ziegler, and Lori Rydel. Driving them home were sluggers, Stephanie Richards, Jill Ma- tyuck, and Lisa Newmyer. The pitching duo of Tammy Moore and Lisa Walczy were an important part of the team, When things go down to the wire, we can count on our pitchers, noted rightfielder Jeanine Haerle, who has played varsity soft- ball three years in a row, was that good catcher who really knew what she was doing, explained pitcher Tammy Moore. The team thought a lot of Coach Watson. Firstbase- man Annette David talked about Mrs. Watson with a smile on her face, Coach Watson makes the season enjoyable for everyone and having fun is what its all about! ■ • Jt irr Senior Annette David hits another home run, Lisa Newmeyer swings the bat just right to drive in a run.
