Although the actual team size diminished from fast year, this year's girl's swimming team managed to pull out with a similar record of 6 4. Finishing the season with a fifth place overall, Coach Pam Dunn felt the team need- ed more depth as many times a key swimmer and diver could not make it to a meet. Terri Baxter, Annie Jordan, Rachel Dunn, and Jane Bailie were some of the stronger swimmers of the Varsity team. Kara Anderson, a sophomore, aided the J.V.’s in also accumulating a 6-4 re- cord. On the diving side of the team, Susan Riddle fared the best, placing 7th in C C S finals for J. V.
