Going Got Rough . . . But Baby Mavs Hung Tough. A new beginning was exactly what the baby Mavs had to endure. With only three returning players from last years' team, inexperience proved to be their achilles heel. Nonetheless, the J.V. girls came away with a winning season. Freshman starter Monica, McDer- mott said, We had a team orientated atmosphere. l had a lot of fun playing. Coach Karen Brannon said that she enjoyed coaching the J .V. team because the team was very coachable. They were always willing to do what I asked them. Coach Brannon said the thing she enjoyed most, however, was seeing the improvement in the players. What the players lacked in skill and experience, they made up with their fondness of the game. It was the fond- ness which allowed the players, regard- less of the score, to play with class. As Marnie Quin put it, We played well as a team. I'm not the least disappointed with the season. Regardless of the team's inexperience, they gave it their all. Nancy Schmid lx I . .1 'P---.... . ,,,fN J.V.
