Spirited team finishes exciting season first in league Early preparation, hard work, and determination proved to be the keys in leading to one of the most successful seasons ever celebrated by the girls gymnastics team. The spirited team was headed by Coach Margaret Ray. Managers Sue Barnum and Sharon Jensen aided the team at practices and traveled with the team to meets away from home. A victory over highly ranked David Douglas was one of the most exciting wins of the year. The girls suffered only two losses during the regular season and went on to take a first at district and a fourth place at state. The two seniors on the team were A.F.S. exchange student Angie Bondarenko and DeeDee Miller, team captain. At state competition the girls that made it to finals were Cristi Cortese and Anne Gianotti. Anne placed 6th on the balance beam, 5th in both floor exercise and all around, and tied for first on the bars. Coach Ray was really proud of the entire team and expressed her- self quite well by saying, I was completely happy with the whole season! How could I not be happy with a team that took first in its league. 24 Girls Gymnastics
