junior varsity baseball Building for the future is what J.V. baseball is all about. With the Varsity made up of mainly seniors, we had to build for next years team. We worked hard trying to become stars of the future. We felt that to have a good Varsity team there has to be a good Jr. Varsity team. We had to not only sharpen our techniques, but mature as people as well, Many of us knew we were good players, but without maturity we may never know our full potential. This season we wanted to have the best team ever at BTW. We had to know everyone's strengths and weaknesses and learn to respect everyone for his ability.

Varsity baseball Baseball at BTW didn't get the attention that other sports did. ln the past we hadn't been very successful, but this year we planned to change all that. During the summer we spent a couple of weeksrat Oklahoma State University's baseball camp, We were a very mature team. Since most of us were seniors, we played more as a team than ever before. We felt that over the years our attitude has been wrong - instead of thinking about what we were going to do to win, we thought about what we were going to do to keep from losing. One player said, We used to invent ways to lose. Despite jock stereotypes, we were students as well as baseball players. Many of us exceeded the 2.0 grade point average, required to play baseball. Our coaches wanted us to achieve in the classroom as well as on the baseball diamond. Front row: Robert Herring, John Pierson, Mike Jones, Mark Barre, Scott Rooks, Robert Payne.
