f STATE BIRTH FIRST FOR GIRLS -lm To constantly strive to play our own game, this was our main goal for this sea- son, stated Varsity Vollyball Head Coach Linda Lachey-Helms. Playing their own game meant having their best season ever. By taking the league title, the Pioneer girls made their first state tournament birth. While hosting the state tournament, Or- egon City advanced past Ashland in the first round, before suffering their lst loss to -737 rated Thurston, then falling to 5510 Wilson. The Pioneer attack was lead by lst team All-Leaguer Marleen O'Brien, who also collected the team M.V.P. Award. She was a complete player and excelled in serv- ing, setting, and defense, according to Helms Another first team All-Leaguer was senior Barb Oaks, who led in hitting and was voted most inspirational Everybody had to play well for us to do so well We had a lot of heart and desire summed up Lachey Helms Milwaukie Clackamas Rex Putnam West Linn Lakertdge Lake Oswego Milwaukie Clackamas Rex Putnam West Linn Lakeridge Lake Oswego Ashland Wilson 15 5 156 157 17 15 15 12 15 10 15 10 159 16 14 15 11 8 15 156 15 0 156 15 11 15 7 15 5 15 12 16 14 9 1 15 5 15 11 16 14 15 11 15 '7 17 15 15 11 15 8 5 15 9 15 League 12 0 Season 13 2 Q1 0 ' li I . .
