Varsity Sgaillaceirs EDWEHU for Sceazscom Training with the aid of conditioning drills and additional practice on their plays, the Varsity Volleyball Team strengthened themselves mentally and physically during the off season, which began August 3. Workouts consisted of a method called circuit training, with each station containing different forms of exercise such as seal walks, wall jumps, and a modernized version of setups. Predicted Senior Janice Poteet, We are really looking forward to a good year. By the start of the season, the squad had already played seven games against such top ranked area teams as Carter, Sunset, Lewisville, and Bishop Dunne. The Cards lost the first game against Carter. However, MacArthur was victorious in the remainder of its preseason games. The Varsity's goal of improving last year's record got off to a slow start in their first district contest, played on September 17. The LD. Bell Raiders eased past the Cards in three games as the Varsity fell short of victory. The squad won the initial set by a score of 15-9, and led the start of the second, but lost, 15-9. Through most of the third set there was less than a four point spread. Nevertheless, Bell emerged victorious, 15-8. xi Top: Shannon Young and Lisa Bryson and Shawn Wild prepare to indulge in lunch.

The JV never mounted a serious threat against the powerful Scot team, as injuries and fumbles plagued MacArthur throughout the game. Although several key players were forced to sit much of the game out as a result of various ailments, poor execution, mental mistakes, and missed assignments also contributed to the Cards' 36-0 defeat. Under the leadership of Coaches Mike Fields and Roy Kinnan, the Freshman Team was defeated at Mesquite Memorial Stadium. West Mesquite struck first, tallying a safety in the first half. However, the Cards came back on Mike Marsh's second half kickoff return for a touchdown. The opposition later took possession of the lead for good, scoring a touchdown to defeat Mac, 9-6. ln the second week of play, the JV encountered difficulty once again, as Richland eased by the Cards, 7-6. Larry MacDonald gave MacArthur the lead with an early touchdown, but the Rebels secured the victory on a successful score in the second half. Defeating the North Garland Raiders, 20- 6, at Raider Stadium, the Freshmen had more success in their second game. Brian Hands, Mike Marsh, and Lonnie Finch all contributed with scores. 1,7 K.,
