WINNERS CAMPUS Experience is . a necessity The undefeated junior high volleyball team had an exceptional year. Coached by Ioan Adams, the junior high girls captured the dis- trict championship with a no-loss record. The varsity team consisted of four fresh- men who were returning starters from the previous year. The experience we had because of our returning starters contributed greatly to our winning season, said Cindy Lindsey. Preceding the district tournament, which ended their season, the junior girls became eligi- ble for senior high volley- ball. Four of the girls on the junior high team went on to play with the senior high. It was neat. We thought our season was over, and then we got to play with the sen- iors, said lana Turner. These four junior high girls were Cindy Lindsey, Tracy Kirby, Millicent Henderson, and lana Turner. We had a good year. Al- though we had little experi- ence in our line-up, the girls worked hard for what they got, said senior girls' coach Cathy Digby. The senior girls completed a double- elimination tournament with second place which quali- fied them for the regional playoffs. Losing the first game of the regional tourna- ment ended their season. With only one returning starter, it's hard to make it to the top, and experience is a must for a winning team, said Christy Hill. SENIOR HIGH VOLLEYBALL.
