lay ball! by Erica Froker This past year, the girls' softball teams had fairly good seasons. This was especially true of the freshman team, who had the best freshman season in Evanston's history with a record of 8-4, finishing first in the conference, A lot of this success has been attributed to the new freshman coach, Julie Colwell. We worked a lot with videotape to improve batting techniquesf, said Colwell, and had some strong hitters. We had a good defense, too. This team played really well, and they're going to give Varsity Coach Ragalie and JV Coach Pickett very good seasons. Most freshmen had never played fast pitch before, but they adjusted to it very well. I like fast pitch better than slow pitch, said freshman pitcher Shawn Young, lt wasn't hard to learn, and it's easier to strike people out with. Two freshmen made the JV softball team, but occasionally they came back down to the freshman team to help out. No one on the freshman team seemed to mind, said freshman Liz Schwieg, who played JV. They could've resented us but they didn't take us as hotshots. They were great about the whole thing. The varsity season didnlt go as well. Our team was pretty inexperienced, said junior Kerry Roberson. We only had five returning players, and our hitting wasn't very consistent. Next year will be better, though, because we'll have more players returning' Sophomore JV player Susan Bart was also optimistic: Even though we had a pretty bad season, it was still a lot of fun. We'd have water fights on the bus and stuff, even if we had lost. In fact, you probably would've thought we won. S

Take me out to the Ball Game by Edie Rubinowitz Whatys as American as apple pie and mom? Why, it's baseball, of course! And at ETHS patrio- tism is at its highest with a great baseball team on all levels. The freshman B-team had a strong season with 10 wins and only 5 losses. Coach Joseph Gattone and team captains Kevin Kelly and Jeff Raedle helped guide the B-team to such a great record, but Raedle claimed that the credit went to the dedicated players. Even the guys who didn't start came off the bench and did a good job. They were there to help and support us when we really needed them, said Raedle. The team captains on the A-team also were able to enthuse the team into a superior season. Marcus Butler expressed his opinion of the captains Matt Wycoff, Joel Williams, and Martin as being the force that kept us in the right order so we wouldn't lose anymore. The A-team's 16 wins and 1 loss won them the conference and made them the best in the Central Suburban league. The sophomore team fared well in the '84 season with seven consecutive wins. Their record was 11 and 8. Sophomore Steve Newman explained their success as being their ability to have fun and work together as a team. The varsity season could have been better, particularly con- sidering the abundance of talent the team possessed. Their 6 and 9 record in conference play was good but unfortunate compared to what could have been. Orlando Knauss was among the best catchers in state. Kits also had Curtis Sloan and Pitcher Bill Combs as excellent contributors. Varsity has three fantastic freshmen who will also come in handy in the years to come: Martin Freeman, David Stamps, and Eric Barnett. 9
