Scrappy Kids From Costa Mesa Basketball has long been one of America ' s all time favorites. No matter where you went, you could find players of all ages enjoying this great sport. However, for the members of Estancia ' s girls ' basketball team, being a part of this na- tion-wide activity was more than fiin, but also tough. We had whole new teams, said Shawna Mew- bern, and we had to ' adapt. All three teams, Frosh-Soph, J.V., and Varsity, were composed mainly of new members. The Varsity team, especially, started off slowly with only one return- ing player, but soon picked up its pace. The team placed second in the league and headed for CIF play-off. Both J.V. and Frosh-Soph, too, did comparatively well, despite the youth of the teams. Along with their strong de- fense, the players also had the ability to control the tem- po of the games through their team work. They are just a bunch of great kids working together as an excellent group, com- mented Coach McNamee. But these accomplsish- ments always followed a load of hard training. It was an intense team. We all wanted to play in our hearts, said Shannon Su- zuki. Apparently, the girls ' bas- ketball teams came through in terrific shape. After all, who else has earned the reputa- tion of being the scrappy kids from Costa Mesa? 1 10 Sports

MVP - Miguel Mendoza Captain ' s Award - Craig McKiernan Most Improved - Matt Aston Coach of the Year Abel Estrada The varsity team had a good year despite a few difficulties. Apparently the team started off with CIF poten- tial, and were well on their way to becoming champions, but the demands of Coach Juarez was a bit too demanding for many of the varsity players. At the end of the season, only three of the original players remained. We were the best team in the league without the best record, added Mark Tyssee. The varsity soccer team pulled out a third place overall this year. They competed in both the Foun- tain Valley and Irvine tourna- ments. The most exciting game this year was against Saddle- back. It was our first victory over them in four years. It was great! explained Sean Daley. The team played together for once, and there was less confu- sion. Varsity later went as far as the quarter finals in CIF. The Jr. Varsity team this year proudly won the league cham- pionships! I 12 Sports
