Shawn Callison (baseline shooter) received all Iroquois League Honorable Mention. This year's senior girls played with the will and desire to have a good season when the going got tough. They got together and pulled their way through to a winning victory. They were fairly successful shooters and had tremendous dribbling skills. Shawn trans-fered from Independance, Kansas as a sophomore. Because of Shawn's tremendous shooting, she became the team's baseline shooter. Shawn lettered three years. Angela participated four years and lettered three; and because of her height, Angela's inside shooting helped the scoreboard when the going got tough. Linda also participated four years and lettered three. Linda's leadership was very much depended upon by the other team members. Jackie participated three years and lettered two. Jackie's quickness gave her the ability to steal the ball from the opponents many times. Kim transfered from Spokane, Washington during her sophomore year and participated three years. Kim's support helped to keep spirits high. Jackie Baker (guard) was the outside shooter, and played half the season being the dribbler. Linda Stein (point guard) was the dribbler and substitute baseline position. Angela (post) received all Iroquois League Honorable Mention and unanimous selection first-team player. Kim Feltner substituted when needed. 25

A lot of determination among the team members and the anticipation with which they tackled each new challenge made each game interesting for the spectators.
