Inbound Experience JV BASKETBALL Mr. Markuson and Mr. Edwards really worked us hard this year and hopefully playing the varsity basketball that we did will help pay off next year.” John Kutz, JV Guard Under the instruction of Assis- tant Coach Roger Edwards, three ju- niors, four sophomores, three fresh- man. and two eighth graders worked together to make up the JV basketball team. Because of the shortage of numbers, the two eighth graders. Ted Ouinn and Pat Brueggeman were brought up to play on the team. Due to the low percentage shoot- ing and numerous turnovers, the team ended the season with a 4-11 win-loss record. Even with a slow start, the boys kept hustling and working with the varsity team to gain the experience they needed to pick up their first win of the season. The B team overcame an eleven- point half-time deficit and used 17 of 21 free throw shooting to defeat the Miller Rustlers by a 61-58 score. The JV also pulled together to beat Stanley County, Wessington, and Harrold. The C” squad defeated both Wessington Springs and Hoven. ABOVE: The JV basketball team consists of: FRONT: H. Gerrits. J.

Setting Three TRACK Track is a lot of hard work, but it’s worth it when you get to compete at the state meet.” Angel Gibson, High jumper Highmore tracksters could be seen beating their familiar path around the track and football field during the 88 season. Mr. Roger Ed- wards acted as head coach of al- most 40 young competitors. Miss Robin Boiler assisted specifically with the hurdlers while Mr. Paul Gunn provided guidance for the shot put and discus throwers as well as the long jumpers, high jumpers, and triple jumpers. The track team competed in nine meets including regions. This year three new records were set. The girl's 3300 meter relay set a new record of 1047.72 breaking the old record of 10:24. This relay was com- posed of Mary Zastrow, Sarah Du- bois. and Stacey and Jackie Scott. Stacey Scott also set a new record in the 3200 meter run with a time of 13:36.65 breaking the old record of 14:00. The girl’s triple jump was a new event this year, and Nancy Durfee set that record at 29' 5 1 2”. At the regional track meet in Hu- ron. Highmore qualified seven tracksters for the state competition in Brandon and Sioux Falls. The girl's 3200 meter relay team comprised of Mary Zastrow. Sarah Dubois. Stacey Scott, and Jackie Scott took home first place honors at regions, and the 1600 meter relay team of Mi- chelle Luze, Mary Zastrow.
