Lady Panthers Are HOT! There was some confusion as to whether the freshman girls' team was playing or the junior varsity girls' team was playing. The confusion came from the fact that the majority of the junior varsity team members were also fresh- men. Regardless of the exact name of the team, the Lady Panthers were very successful. Ron Dempsay, junior varsity and freshman coach, implied a great deal of talent existed in the youngsters. “This is a very talented group of young women. These girls have height; they have speed; they have quickness. This group of young people only lacks the experience and desire to be great. Iam sure that for some of them, they will mature into super ball players. ” The junior varsity compiled a 9-2 record with losses coming only to Glas- gow during the first game of the season and Westran. The freshmen completed a perfect season with a 9-0 record. The Freshman Krista Ratliff takes an outside jump shot as fellow freshmen teammates Jody Fuemmel- er and Lynette Linneman look on. 16 JV Basketball Lady Panthers captured the champion- ship trophy of the Salisbury Junior Varsity Tournament to highlight their season. Two of the young Lady Panthers played in quite a few varsity games. 5’11” freshman Lynette Linneman played a key role on the boards for Varsity Coach, Dennis Humphrey. The Slater game that determined the conference champion- ship and the state game versus Hermann were important ones for Lynette. Krista Ratliff worked from the guard position to strengthen the varsity bench. At the athletic banquet, Coach Humphrey stat- ed that he hadn’t awarded a varsity letter to a freshman for eight years. This year both Krista Ratliff and Lynette Linne- man received them. Gail Blackwell, Sherry Fuemmeler, and Roslyn Lewis were the three juniors that led this talented group of young ladies. Junior Gail Blackwell goes in for a lay-up during the game against the Keytesville Tigers.
