umerous freshmen participants The new freshmen seemed to have been into CDS High School spirit this year. The freshmen participated in many sports, baseball was especially popular. Although so many freshmen tried out, Coaches Leuck and Mirizio decided to keep almost all of them. They wanted to train them for their future chance on JV as well as varsity. The goals for the fresh- man team included learning ba- sic skills and knowledge, and becoming better all-around players. The team focused on hitting, throwing, and catching throughout the season. The freshmen spent a great deal of time in the batting cages work- ing on their hitting to increase their batting averages. The work paid off with the team's successful season. gg,-: ,. afar-k1...a-uwupw.-5.,,. ,,,,,,,,,, .

During the 1986 season the JV baseball team concentrated mainly on three goals: to have fun, learn the fundamentals of baseball, and most importantly, to prepare for varsity competi- tion. According to Coaches Armstrong and Brooks, the JV players accomplished just that. Most of them improved tre- mendously and readied them- selves for the varsity try-outs next year. Competition builds in baseball The team consisted of seven- teen players, all sophomores ex- - 1 JV Baseball group picture Qlfront row from leftj Shawn Cruse, Dave Cooper, Mario Vital, Harold Farnsworth, David DeChandt lMiddle row from leftj Coach Brooks, Mike Reid, Eric Miller, David Palmer, Michael Richey, Rodney Lee, Coach Armstrong ll.ast row from leftj Marty Pies, Frank Camacho, Brad Baker, Eric Zimmerman, Brian Seher, and Scott Newburn l as Jv BASEBALL cept one.
