n enthusiastic, young team, was how Coach Steve Smith described his varsity softball team. Having seven underclassmen and only two seniors, the team was young. This was shown by their record at 5 wins and 11 de- feats. The team got off to a good start by defeating their first two opponents. Os- borne 12 to 2, and Walton 9 to 5, but then they lost three in a row and from there they were inconsistent. Stacey Guest expressed, we had a lot of po- tential and should of had a better sea- son.

Togetherness, competition, and gaining experience were a big part of the season. Though the junior varsity's record at 3 and 6 did not show a winning season, it did show some tough games. Only in its second game, the junior varsity team did show the will to win. ln their first game the squad lost their toughest contest to a good Osborne team 9 to 8.

he Panthers opened the season with a hard fought battle against the Newton County Rams only to lose 73- 75. Team member Chris Wolski felt, We had a chance to beat Newton County but we were undermanned. All in all, I think we gave it our best shot. The following week the Panthers proved again they were the team to beat. Leaving halftime with a two point deficit, the Panthers came back with the help of Cal Boyd's twenty-two points to finish out the game defeating the Pebblebrook Falcons by a score of 62-50. This victory was an important one because of the team's early-sea- son problems. Thad Baird reaffirmed this thought by saying, lt helped us to see what we could do when we all pulled together. That's one of the most important things we've been taught this year. cc Paulding County was the key sub- region win for the team. - Eric Malone -,-.-.-.-.:.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-,-.8-.,-4.55-415.544.1.3.5.1.g.1-1-1.14-141-:-2:-:-:g:::-:3:::,:::g:::1:gzgqqqzzx-.3.g.gg-:::,:::::::5:g:g:::3:g:,:::5:::35J B'-.1.f.g353.3.g.,gQ34:g.::gq,g.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,:g:g.gi.,.,.,.,g.,,,,.,.,.Y.,.,,.,,.,.,,.,.,.,.,.. . . . . , . . . . . 1-. . . . . ...,.,w. . . . .... -. . . . . . . . . .-. . .
