We played a lot of good games, but came up a little short in the end. lfWth only eight seniors leaving the team, next year 's team should be a contender. If everybody that had played in the past few years would have come out we may have been in better standings. Ifwth three state play-off teams in our district, you can see how tough it was for our small team. This team worked hard and played tough from begin- ning to end, so they have nothing to be disappointed for. by Stephen Baca
