The Spartans came through the season looking pretty good despite the tough competition with an overall record of 7 wins 9 losses and a conference record of 7 wins-8 losses. The J. V. ’s were younger than most of their competition as three sophomores and two freshmen made up the starting five. Though the Spartans were young, they looked good and made a lot of progress throughout the season. With a record that was just a shade under 500, it really shows that Baker was a team to be respected. The J. V. s represented Baker well not only on the court but off the court also. Baker and Baker High School should be proud of these young ladies. As their coach, I am very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with every one of the Baker J. v;’s.
