There is no better way to describe the Campus High Girls' Basketball Team than the familiar old saying, That's the way the ball bounces. Just as the basketball bounced for the team throughout the year, their Ark Valley League record did also. The squad, in its second season of exis- tence at Campus, placed third in the Valley standings with a 7-7 record and learned that all things that go up must come down. The Colts record went up and down for various reasons, one of which was not gravity, as in the case of a basketball, The dedicated roundballers bounced high with wins over AVL foes Arkansas City, Derby, ElDorado, and Winfield, and dribbled low with consecutive losses to the powerful Salt Hawks from Girls rank third in valleg Hutchinson, who ranked second in the state tourney, to Newton and Derby in hard-to-take overtime battles, and fi- nally, a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Winfield to complete the sea- son, at the 4-A Sub State Finals. In the sub state final, foul trouble re- stricted the Colt's first half efforts. De- spite a courageous third quarter rally, fouls again took their toll as Campus went down 48-39 before the partisan, home-town Viking fans, despite the fact that they defeated the Vikings dur- ing the regular season handily, by 26 points. The final Winfield game was indica- tive of the Colts' up and down perfor- mances, which seemed to cling to the girls all season long. Just as the team seemed to get it all together, some- thing would pull them back, although ii the long run, improved immensely dur ing the 1976-77 season. Coach Lynn Kneller had four fini senior athletes to complement junio Julie Shafer, who led the team in botl scoring and rebounding. Starters Dan: Meyer, Pam Coppage, and Sandy Neif ing displayed the type of leadershii which is essential in maintaining a win ning program. Finally, Pam Charlei came off the bench frequently to give the line-up and extra scoring punch.

Golf team drops well behind par Spectacular just wasn't the word to describe the Campus High Golf Team. lnheriting a young team, Coach Rich- ard Riggs expected to produce a win- ning program, due to the squad's ex- perience gained from the previous sea- son. But the team never seemed to get the ball off the tee, Foul weather got into the way of several early-season meets, even though weather during much of the spring was excellent for the sport of electric carts and 51,000 a month country clubs. Despite the pleasant conditions, the pin seemed as hard to find as a needle in a hay stack for the Colts. Even the large green areas of the Pawnee Prairie Golf Course could be compared to lakes of water on the horizon of a de- sert to a dry-throated traveler, as the CHS golfers vlsioned the greens as a mirage. Despite the tough luck experienced by the squad, senior Fred Cohlmia came through in the Winfield meet with a third place finish as he shot a 77. ln the regional at Chanute, Cohlmia and junior Dave Farney formed the two man team which came within four strokes of going the state. The varsity consisted of seniors Cohlmia, Steve Brazill, and Mike John- son. Farney and Graham Engdahl were juniors on the team, while Mark Simon rounded out the squad as a sopho- more.
