Defending the goal. Kathy Reall proves ample competition for her adversaries from Circleville.

Reaching their goals The 1987 girls basketball season came to an unfortunate end by losing the Regional tourmament at Petersburg. The regular season record was quite an impressive one of 18 and 6, however, the tournaments were what mattered from the beginning. Although their main goal was to make it to the state play-offs, the Lady Lions fell short of that goal, though several other key goals set by Coach Dave Kyle were achieved. The Lady Mt. Lions accomplished several goals during the 1987 season. Among these were going undefeated on their home floor, winning the Potomac Vally Conference Championship, winning the Sectional Championship. They also enjoyed an overall record of 18 wins against 6 losses. This team had nothing to be ashamed of by coming one game short of making the big trip to the State Tourna- ment, commented Coach Kyle. The Regional Tournament is where it all ended for the Lady Lions. They were overtaken by Berkley Springs at Petersburg. The locker- room was silent, every head down, and every player speechless. The agony of this defeat left the girls in dismal tears and broken dreams. The Tucker County Girls Varsity Basketball Team: Front row; Edie Sheppard, Kathy Reall. Dee Dee Lester.

For most of this varsity team that was their last chance, but Coach Kyle hopes that the remaining varsity players as well as new- comers to the team will prove as deter- mined as these fine players were. The young members of the varsity team also contribut- ed to the teams' success, by being there when they were needed. They knew that as they intently watched those players out there that next year it would be all up to them and they would be those players con- trolling the game. The varsity team did in- deed have a memorable season. They prac- ticed hard during the summer and they pushed themselves in practice. They were a team. They won as a team and they lost as a team. They were all for one and one for all and they came very dose to being number one. And as for Coach Kyle, all of the mem- bers of the Lady Mt. Lions respected him and believed him, just as he respected and believed in them. Driving toward her goal. Tammy Maxwell succeeds in showing the Falcon's how it's done. OH NO! Exclaims Michelle Boggess as her opponent Determined. Cindy Newman considers all the options, scores. 16-Girls Basketball
