The Varsity Girl's Basket- ball team began their success with a tremendous win in their first game against Sky- line in mid November. The beginning of the sea- son was marked by some worry because the team members were generally young and with little exper- ience working with one an- other.

The team was really im- pressed by the support they received from the student body this year. lt helped the team to a successful season to have not only parents cheering them on but also a school that cared. As an overview they were excited for the season and they had a really good time. As Rose Bean put it, We have fun and we win and that's the best combination you can have. And to top it off, the team came out of the season with a I2-7 win loss record. The team's main weak points were that they were plagued by injuries through- out the season. But this dis- advantage was greatly outweighed by the strong points. They didn't really have a bench. All of the play- ers were very good and ev- eryone was o starter. To sum it all up they had a very suc- cessful season in terms of a workable team that could handle the struggles that were thrown to them. Girl's Varsity Basketball l43

Not that many of the fledging Ea- gles had much practice in this area, a great effort was put forth by everyone on both the teams. The Sophomores had an excellent season, losin only two games and capturing the district championship. As the Sophomores strolled to the championship, the J.V. fought their own battles against tough teams from throughout the area. Junior Katrina Corn said, 1'Every- body on the team played at their best and we played very hard against our opponents. Our coach this year was a great help toward our wins.

Strangely her nervousness had disappeared as she went through the motions of play with ease. Sophomore Girls' Basketball 145
