bbAUIItb UN IHt bhAM The Girls ' Gymnastics Team was led by team captain Minh Pham, co- captain Arleen Bocatija, and was coached by Mrs. Lishness. It was hard to select the top gym- nasts, for they are all winners in their particular class and event. The tenth graders had a very promising year. In the beginning of the season, Mrs. Lishness said, I ' m looking forward to a successful and enjoyable sea- son! Carson hws placed as high as sec- ond in their league. Carson also had several girls placed in the Individual City Finals. An excellent perfor- mance! 7. kristan Arman poses for the camera. 2.

SENSATIONAL SWIMMERS There ' s nothing like a Carson Swim Meet to get you into the colt spirit. To- getherness and high ambitions have kept the team going strong. The boys var sity, having a 6-3 season, set high goals for themselves to help push them against the tougher teams. The girls ' varsity team, having an 8-1 season losing only to Palisades, has an excellent chance of taking the Marine League title at the prelims and finals. Both teams work out daily at Scott Pool during fifth and sixth periods. A weight training program, set up at Car- son High, is in session to help build mus- cles for the pull and kick needed in swimming. Coach Rossen, of the boys team, and Coach Corian, of the girls team, have put in a lot of hard work for a challenging year. Diving is also a spectacular event at the pool. Rodney Fernandez, a senior, Dcn- ise Smith, a junior, Stacey Hardcastle and Richard Lloyd, sophomores, are off to a good start and are looking forward to the upcoming diving competitions. This year ' s team manger is Dawn Go- mez. V Coach Rossen in his natu- ral habitat. 2) Coach Rossen J! Swimmers look on as Steve Kunitake swims backstroke. 4) BOYS VARSITY - 1st Row (L-R): A.
