EAGLETS, SCDCJN T0 BE SGARING! AlThough The J.V. sofTpaIl Team was young wiTh liTTle experience, Coach Karen Nance said They were very enjoyable To coach. The girls had The apiIiTy To find a prighT side in even The gloomiesT of siTuaTions and were always able To musTer aloT of enThusi- asm and deTerminaTion The Team's pesT ouTfielder was Becky Pool. Anna SeTo and Becky Neuman received awards for fasTesT base run- ners and The mosT aggressive players were Angie Neuman and Becky Pool. One girl did noT sTand ouT as The mosT im- proved player, so Coach Nance decided To name The whole Team as 'mosT im- proved'.
