No Quitters Although the varsity baseball team did not succeed in winning district, the players achieved tar more than most critics had predicted. Under the coaching of Mike Morgan, the team played with heart and continued to have the desire to win until the end of the season. The most valuable player award of the season went to Tony Johnson, senior, with the most improved going to Grady Clark, junior and Steve Cum- mings, senior. There were 16 members on the team and Morgan attributed defeat at district to not enough aggression and not playing as well as we should have. Seven lettermen returned to the team in hopes of being part of another district championship, however, those hopes were soon diminished. We made too many mental mistakes. We did not take each game seriously enough, Freeman Tomlin, junior, replied about the season. Tomlin experienced a good season, I felt I had a good year on the field, and I hit when it was needed. His batting average hit a high of .285, and he said his greatest moment came while playing Pasadena l l Leonard Campise cocks his arm alter fielding a ground ball. when he hit a home run. Overall the best game of the season for the team was against Pasadena when the players came from behind and won the game 5-4. In Morgan's words, he summed up the games by saying, We woke them up. The worst game we played was against Deer Park. We did not execute enough, Morgan said. The team always had the overall desire to do their best even with criticism, Morgan reflected. The goals in which Morgan hopes to base further years are to have the team hit the ball better, be more aggressive and prevent giving the other team the big win .
