8-3 Uri Look Who's Back . .we had to prove to the administration and student body that we were just as good as the last drill team at Agoura High.-Shizue Kira Right face, left face, right face ... Where were these commands coming from? Could it be the Drill Team? There hasn't been a drill team since 1980. What was it doing on our campus this past year? Yes, that's right. The drill team was back better than ever. Consisting of thirty-four girls, the drill team added a lot to the Agoura High campus. The drill team's purpose is to promote school s irit and to provide opportunities for more young laclles to take an active part in Agoura High School team activities, said lonelle Taylor, advisor. This spirited group of freshman through seniors per- formed as one unit. The girls displayed this one-unit quality at pep rallies, football and basketball games, and in competitions such as field shows, parades, and dance competitions. This year as a special treat the drill team went to Hawaii to perform in the Hula Bowl. Not only did they have a fantastic time in Hawaii, but they par- ticipated in an event that they will remember forever. They improved with ever performance. In just their third competition, the girls placed third among some very competitive schools at Savannah High School. Be- ing a first-year drill team, said Alison Bates, l think we are doing great. They learned quite a lot this year from their teacher Marian Karbo, student teacher Mrs. Donna Whitelaw, and choreographer Laura Polani, but most of all, the girls learned from each other. Thanks to the hardwork, dedication and perseverance of Mrs. Vicki Koch, coor- dinator, and Mrs. lonelle Taylor, a drill team marched again at Agoura. -Melanie Carter ll Team T04 perkovich Some members of the drill team show their spirit before their per- formance.
