CHEERLEADING Hard Work Pays Off Win Sportsmanship Award The enthusiasm was kept alive through the hard work of the cheer- leaders once again this year. They were under the guidance of Mrs. Sal- ly Whiting and Mrs. LcAnn Suhn. The six squads of cheerleaders which were chosen by the student body had various jobs that they were to perform. They were to represent the town, increase the school spirit, and keep the crowd under control. As well as fulfilling these obligations they also made signs and planned pep rallies. The Girl’s Basketball squad, with the help of the crowd, had the privi- lege of receiving the Sportsmanship award for the District 15 Basketball Tournament. “Cheerleading has been an ex- citing experience.” -Kari Griese With the help of the advisors, the cheerleaders held their annual Par- ents Night which is to show the ap- preciation of the players for their hard work, and the parents for their support.

‘A GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Coaching Staff Changes Team Rebuilds Competence Under the watchful eye of Coach Roger Edwards, in his first year as head coach and assistant coach Paul Peterson, the girls’ ‘A’ basketball team accumulated a win-loss record of 6-16. The team went through a year of rebuilding. Losses due to graduation left the team with only one starter from the previous year, so it was up to the seniors to fill their positions. Although it took time, the team was able to pull together by mid-season and made teamwork the key to suc- cess. New red uniforms gave the Lady Pirates a new look as they visited teams around the area. They also seemed to give the team an edge, for most of the team’s victories came on the opponents' home floors. The Pirates took part in the Cen- tral Conference Tournament again this year. In the first round the team defeated the Chamberlain Cubs, but in the second game they fell to the ranked Miller Rustlers. Mobridge defeated the Pirates on the final night of the tournament, but the team look home fourth place honors and placed one player, Janell Hou- dek, on the Central Conference Tournament Team. District time rolled around once more and the Pirates started out by soundly defeating the Harrold Car- dinals in the first round. Gettysburg put an end to the hopes for a District 15 title in the second game, and the final game for the Pirates was also a disappointment when Agar went home with the victory. “The record doesn't tell the story.” -Roger Edwards After the season drew to a close, Janell Houdek and Charlene Faul- stich were named to the Little Cen- tral Athletic Conference Team. Four of the starting five turned in their uniforms for the last time and left junior Charlene Faulstich the leader- ship role. They will be missed, but will have their memories captured forever, never to be released. 20 ‘A’ Girls’ Basketball
