l z JV softball finishes 2-14 season with uenthusiasmv Without much experience or any standout pitchers, the Junior Varsity softball team exceeded the expectations of Head Coach jean Agee by winning two games. I didn't think we would win any games , stated Agee. We had no player that pitched as a specialty. Even our lack of a real pitcher could have been offset, however, if we would have had strong hitters. We only had one home run hit this season, that was by Jackie Ovaninf' Agee also stated that even though the team did not win many games, the team should be commended for its enthusiasm. Although we weren't winning, the kids kept coming to practice and trying their hardest, commented Agee. 1. Joanne Lozano fouls off a pitch from a Pacifica pitcher. Lozano was one of the many sophomores that played on the team. z. Head Coach jean Agee guides the Aztec offense from the third base coaching box. Agee was pleasantly surprised by the team's two victories. 3. Laurie Ludwig staunchly awaits a pitch from an opposing pitcher. Ludwig was the starting pitcher in both of the team's victories. 222 - softball
