This wasn't the only highlight for the season. The girls defeated 18th ranked Jeffer- , sonville, 72-61, only the second time in CHS history. They also took the Holiday Tourney championship by defeating Providence 65-51. Senior Stacey Har- den was named tourney MVP, and Sen- ior Joanne Eickholtz was named to the all tourney team, as was freshman Kelly Adams. The team also set a school re- cord, scoring 90 points in a game and they lead the mid southern conference in rebounding. To top it all off the squad finished the season with a 15-5 record, the best ever at CHS. Many individuals attributed to the team's success. Adams set two school records: free throw percentage and as- sists. Junior Sandy Bottorff set a school record with seven assists in a game, and junior Jenny VanMeter set a record for field goal percentage. I feel the girls did so well because i they had confidence in each other. ll They worked together as a team, stat- i ed Smith. Girl's Basket all J 29 :1
