Our bandits were wildly swinging at the little white ball. Were they out of practice or just trying to hit the coach? As the first match approached, the golfers looked forward to showing off their skills. They'd load into a covered wagon and be off to the Purple Hawk golf course to play in the woods-or was that with the woods ? The team did a lot of puttsing around, but finally got the iron out and began teeing off. The ball would move gracefully down the fairway, providing it wasn't caught in a sandtrap or lost in a pond. Our pros would then hit the ball up to the green where it fell into what looked like a gopher hole. My what an unusual sport'?! Well, however unusual, our teams were great on the golf course.

Row 3: Mr. Michelson, Miss Staples There were nine Westview and fourteen ' Middle School cowgirls participating in gymnastics this year. They traveled near and far for challenging meets. Some of the girls spent their time hanging around bars While others tried to mount their 'R f A horses. The rest danced on hitching posts or in the street to the music from the saloon. It takes a lot of talent to do these gymnastics without the horses throwing you off, or falling from the hitching posts, but with the help of Miss Staples, the girls made it through M 72 Gymnastics Row 1: Julie Mattson, Lisa Foote, Jena Huddleson, Justine Knapp, Heidi Corbin, .

As the dust settled, one of the Catchy Cowgirls, made another homerun. The team cheered as another cowgirl got up to bat. The townspeople heard a crack as the bat hit the ball. The cowgirl rounded first and was on her way to second as the flyball was caught. This made three outs. It was the bottom of the ninth inning and the Catchy CoWgirls were out in the field. They were amazing- pitching balls, striking the other team out, catching flies- the works! The game ended and the Catchy Cowgirls pulled another one through with the help of Coach Staples. As spring came about on the rolling plains of the mighty Westview Ranch, the baseball team came out of hibernation for another season. When the season came, Mr. Kaunonen seemed to get overly excited, for he was the rancher that organized the team of steers. Something else amazing happened also - was it possible for his voice to change from one monotonous tone to two monotonous tones?l?! Our team was seen wildly ripping the cover off the ball as they hit singles, doubles, triples, and home runs. The steers slaughtered the opposing teams as it was rare for them to , ever miss a catch and their base running was very well done. Yes, we at the Westview Ranch can be very proud of our baseball steers. 74 Softball And Baseball ,, , Catchy Cowgirls Row 1: Melanie Bodin, Kathy White, LoAnn Burkstrand, Robbie Timm, Lisa Bock, Tammy Fenner Row 2: Sandy Zarecki, Tammi Strelow, Linda Ernst, Renee Hagfors, Kathy West, Jodi Denny, Carol Auger, Connie Nordby, Zoe Freeman Row 3: Heidi Randall, Mary Campbell, Barb Brown, Jonelle Jamma, Marlys Carlson, Betty Lakeberg, Bonni Hasser, Jenny Willias, Tracy Seiffert Row 4: Tammy Paulson, Patricia Lysdahl, Barb Falk, Lisa Boomgaarden, Angela Westley, Connie Schmakel, Debra Maxwell, Robyn Turchi, Sarah Glidden, Raeann Hagfors, Coach Staples Batting Broncos Row 1: Dale Grundberg, Shawn Nelson, Greg Kranz, Tim Hasser, Scott Johnson Row 2: Jeff Anderson, Todd Potrament, Max Eng, Greg Hunt, Bryan Peterson, Mark Carlson, Todd Turnquist
