The main reason for this was be- cause the team had to get used to each other. More than half of the members were underclassmen. The two freshmen on the team, Melissa Jantz and Azsha Bren- nan, showed their talent at try- outs and really surprised the coaches. Their skill was comple- mented by the experience of re- turning varsity members. Rachel Herzog, Bethany Weber, Shannon Paulson, Kristie Loyd, Keri Lucas, Jenny Dehlichola, and Rachelle Weir, held down the fort. The team was successfui because its members enjoyed working togeth- erg they encouraged one another. The girls agreed that a good atti- tude helped them become a stron' get team. ,.,,,f'fv , f' J t at H , , V. ,,,, V- , M , i 4 , 2 V I - ,,- Gia. 4 ,mam my , , , , A , .
