Varsity Gees tc Districts The 1981-82 Conner Cougars Baseball Team got off to a slow start due to the pro- longed Basketball season, but overall it was a good year for the team. They finished the season with a 17-9 record and a District Champion title. The team started a 11 of 12 game winning streak with the defeat of the number-one ranked Lloyd Jugs, and ended in a disappointing loss to Newport in the Regional tournament. Coach Shields led this year's Cougars to the best baseball record in the school's history. Senior Brian Akers, the team's M.V.P., highlighted the season when he pitched a no-hitter against Dixie.

It was the first time a J.V. team ever went undefeated in a regular season. The Cougars never actually had an. all-star member this year because the team had so much talent including 14 excellent ball players. One of the highlights during the season was the defeat of Boone County in the Championship of the B.C.l.T. 10-7. At the end of the regular season, Conner played Highlands in the first round of the Reserve Regional Tourna- ment, and lost their first game. The Cougars should still be pro- ud of a great season and should have a lot to look for- ward to in the future.
