Spartan Spikers 'FRUSTRATED' Madison Memorial's Prep Volley- ball Squad had quite an unfavorable showing this past fall. The Spartans pre-season hopes seemed to evapo- rate as they closed out their regular season with a l-l0 record. The unfortunate spikers missed a berth in the State Tournament for the third consecutive year as LaFollette de- feated the anemic Spartans, 2-l, in Regional Match Play. Coach Gary Humphrey admitted his frustrations over the season and concluded that his team lacked depth and height in its players. He felt that a lot of re- building was in store for the Spar- tans next year and also stressed the point that volleyball is played in sets - each set consisting ofthree match- es, and that his Spartans had won several individual matches over their opponents. The Freshman Squad, under the direction of Coach George Bulovsky, had a similar fate as his crew concluded the season with a 2-4 report. Coach Bulovsky felt that both teams exemplified determina- tion and effort but recognized certain factors which hindered the Spartans' success. The Varsity Team Members singled out Senior Paul Woit as their Most Valuable Player and chose Senior John Jackson as their Most Improved Player. Senior Steve Col- lins captained the Spartans through- out the season. The Most Valuable Player for the Freshman squad was Dan Graf and Mike Ayres was named Team Captain.
