It is a starting place for everyone. The J.V. teams were areas of building, struc- turing, and learning. It was these concepts that the Braves had little problems in. Under the coaching of Mr. Settle and Mr. Galligan the J.V. teams had a fine season with records of 11-9 for the boys and 8-10 for the girls. It was the J.V. teams that Where did everyone go? Kathy Milam looks for a co-player to pass the ball to while being heavily guarded by a Leonardtown player. Denise Harper breaks away from the pack and heads down to the basket for a clean shot. 26 J.V. Basketball opened for the varsity and also supplied the varsity teams with their excellent players. In the girls’ case, the majority of their starting J.V. team joined the varsity girls at mid-season. Alvin Cole means business as he flies down the court for another two points.

For six of the Varsity Cheerleaders, this was our last cheerleading season. We worked hard to perfect our pyramids and to pro- mote school spirit, as well as to make our last season memorable. Falling off the top of pyramids, or ac- cidently running out onto the court during a foul shot were among the most un- forgettable memories. We started out the season with a cheerleading competi- tion. Although we didn’t place, we did work well together, and we learned to work as a team. We held a very successful fund-raiser of selling linen calendars to buy sweaters to remember our cheerleading days. At the winter pep rally, we recognized all senior, winter athletes and coaches with carnations. The day before Christmas vacation, many of us dressed as elves and went around school singing Christmas carols. We had a fun and exciting season, and we will always remember it. Cheering the Braves on to the regional games, and having such a winning season made our ef- forts all worth while. Front Row: Kristi Blawelt. Bonnie Talton, Nikki Kennedy.
