Girls aim high to reach goal of perfection Perfection was the goal the girls varsity track team tried to achieve. They practiced af- ter school everyday for hours and did the best work they could. We all had to work hard and strive for high goals. Even though everyone com- peted separately it was al- ways for the same team, sophomore LceAnna Machen said. The junior varsity girls were moved up to the varsity team to work as one team. Those girls had to work harder because the girls they competed against were older and more experienced. Competing against people that had more experience than me kind of scared me at first, but I knew that I could not let something like that in- SlartinK out in (he 100 meter dash freshman Tina lieiring tries to pull ahead from the other girls. Phoiu B) SIrvr MK ' andltrHt terfcre with my performance because ! didn ' t want to let the other girls down. Usually after I got into the meet it felt like I was just as experienced as they were, freshman Julie Lynch said. Even the more experienced girls admitted that being a member of the track team meant work. Running track is a hard sport to do because it is a lot of hard work and you just can ' t give up like you some- times would like to do. In my opinion it never mattered how rough it sometimes got 1 always stuck to it and did well. Anyway those girls were my second family and it nev- er seemed right to just give up, sophomore Stephanie Whitley said. Jumping high and long sophomore Stephanie Whitley extends her body to jump as far as she can. Phom B) Maya Layout By Carey Click 7 107
