Teamwork! Volleyball Girls Learn Basics he tension grew as the Freshmen volleyball pIayers entered the court at the Bedford J.V. Tournament. As the only Freshmen team in the tournament, they did amazingly well by winning three of their six games. HI think we did really well. We finally worked together as a team, stated Jenny Bagrowski. Volleyball is a team sport and the team knew to be the best they had to work well together. They had to communicate and watch the ball constantly, knowing it could come their way. Encouraging and psyching other team mates was also just as important. There were seventeen Freshmen who made the squad. Trisha Stoner and Mary Linzie were picked as team captains. Beth Saunders commented, Trisha and Mary are really good players and show a lot of team spirit. Everyone knows no team is complete without a coach. Mona Shay, a former student at Bedford, gave the team experience they needed for their First year. Hi liked having a coach that's young because she can relate to us. Her support helped us a lot, stated Sara Spice. Coach Mona Shay commented, I think they over came their lack of experience but there is room for im- provement. All the girls put forth a lot of hard work. They practiced almost everyday and over Christmas Vaca- tion. uWe practiced mostly on our serving, stated Dawn Post. Kim Horn also added, The worst part of practice W5 mountain climbers and running laps. Dlve! Rashelle Elgin hits the floor to retrieve a ball in the game against Ypsilanti. Concentrate!
