GIRLS' EYMNHSTIES Girl gymnasts capture conferen ce title - - pon entering a girls' gymnastics team prac- - - tice, one is impressed with the atmosphere of chalk dust, blisters, and concentration that coincides with the serene grace and beauty of ballet. For the girls' gymnastics team, rigorous training paid off. The team had a conference re- cord of 6-1, which was good enough to earn them the title of conference champions, making it the first girls' gymnastics team in the history of GBS to win the championship. In addition to winning the conference title, the team placed first at the East Leyden Invitational, second at the district meet, third at the sec- tional meet, and third at the state meet. According to Coach Diane Kelley, the team's performance was good. Particularly at the conference meet and state. All girls were 100 per cent turned on. An extra pizazz seemed to radiate from them as never be- fore. They all really responded to the challenge at hand. Coach Kelley said the attitude of the team was very strong. This attitude helped the girls be- cause they would make up their minds before a competition that they could win. Apparent- ly, once the girls decided they could win, they did. The team captains, Briget Carr, Tammy Levy and Lisa Hussey, led the team to their best year ever, said Kelley. MARLA PEARLSTEIN PRACTICES a tumblng pass in a floor exercise rou- tine.
