, F... ' 'W ..,.- Y-A N , L - c YOUR FAC I Changing offenses to meet Coach Kathy Down- ey 's standards was a difhcult transition for the Varsity Girls' Volleyball team. Even though it was the Hrst year that all of these players ha ve participated on the same team, they really worked hard and had a good attitude toward everything. By working hard, these girls made it through 60 hours of two practices a day before the regular season began. Bryan Taylor said, lt was a great pleasure seeing and supporting our volleyball team. Their team effort and sportsmanship was above the 'norm '. I also enjoyed traveling to other schools to see them. Although they had their share of losses, they created a live slam-the-ball-in-their face atmosphere. I loved it! All of the girls enjoyed this season immensely. They really strived for a .500 season, but just by having fun and executing the new offense by the end of the season was a great thrill.
