Hockey was a sport which took a lot of endurance and teamwork, and our girls’ varsity hockey team put ’em all together, for a 7-1 season. Many of the girls have been on the team together for the past three years and have learned to work with each other. Even though they didn’t have much school support, they played their best, remaining undefeated in district play up until the last game against T. C. Williams. Pressure and over-confidence handicapped the team and T.C. overpowered them, 1-0. With this loss, the team gave up their chances for a District championship. Excitement rages for Theresa Kratz and the Bruin team after a goal is scored against West Springfield. 10 Gaining much yardage, Debbie Morris gets the ball down the field. Playing defense is rare for attacker Lisa Bartholomew, but she blocks a shot on goal by this Ram as Theresa Kratz backs her up. 120 Fill) Spurts

' c r l S -V: • ■to • yW . T ’- ' —--- a Tennis is usually thought of as an individual sport, but our team members’ attitude was summed up in the statement, “the team comes before me. No matter what I did, it’s what the team did that counted.” This attitude was important since each depended on the other for support in playing against the new teams. The move into a different district brought in better opponents and tougher competition. The change was hard as we finished the season with 2 wins and 10 losses. Many of the matches came down to the wire with the Bruins losing only by a small margin. Like the Robinson match, we lost 5-4 after losing our last doubles match by a slim margin of 11-9. A new type of competition began this year. Instead of playing 5 singles and 4 doubles, 6 singles and 3 doubles were used. The girls who played singles could now play doubles too. With less girls needed for Varsity, a junior varsity team was started. The Junior Varsity Team, in unofficial matches, finished with a 8-3 record. A down-the-line shot by Audrey Perkins catches her West Springfield opponent off guard. Audrey proceeded to win 10-3.
