GAA is no different than playing basketball or volleyball on any other team, for both these sports are played in GAA organized groups. The basketball and volleyball teams travel to other schools and play as a group with only qualified girls. Mrs. Martha Vartorella is the head coach and adviser of the group. Several awards were presented on Awards Day to the out- standing members of GAA. Ann Heckelman, junior, and Linda Lake, juniorg received their GAA letters for accumu- lating 6,000 points each.

Many of the fresh- man and sophomore members of GAA received their first and second year awards. LEFT: Scrimmage in the gym.
