108 j.V. Softball JOB WELL DONE! r. Levins, who coaches J.V. Soft- ball, has put his effort and skill into making his Eldorado High School softball team a great suc- cess this year. Three goals seemed to motivate the players this season. The first was to have fun, the second was to improve each individuaI's skills and knowledge of the game to the point where they would make a positive contri- bution at the J.V. level next season. The last of course, was to WINI J.V. Softball uses a softball twhich is larger than a baseballl that is pitched un- derhand. All the rules of baseball apply. It is a vigorous sport that requires consis- tent pitching and hitting. lf you are good at doing any one of these skills. then there should be no problem in having a winning teaml The attitude of our Eldorado team is to go out on the playing field and give it all they've got . ,. and of course teamwork. Their is no criticism what-so-ever among the J.V. players. lf one ofthe teammates is having a bad day on the field, the coach and players encourage the teammates to shake it oft and keep trying. Mr. Levens stated that the most important part of playing softball is the players working to- gether as a team and everyone support- ing and encouraging each other. Just a little thing as saying, good job or That pitch was great can make a per- son feel good and show great detemiina- tion and ambition on the field. The best part of' coaching softball , says Mr. Levens, is watching the kids improve. ln the beginning of the season there was a lot of raw talent that has now developed into skillful playing. Overall, the team has worked very hard. The J.V. Softball team started practic- ing six weeks before the competition started. They worked on their playing skills and physical condition to make sure they had a good year. At the end of the season they will know the Glory of Winning a game and cope with the disappointment of losing a game. But you better believe they'll be at the next game twin or Iosel to give it their all when the umpire yells Play balll Ben Jurgens attempts to catch a ball at one of the soft ball practices. Well, someones gotta catch the ball sooner or later. , .M - W ..v H-7-gg,gy,,V Qfllwlhq, f,,,.f.... ,, ..- ,. H ,- ,w,,, N 'jx .MWWTUMW V, w Vrfy .,,,f' 4 7 A .-.gi m.:erz1'i,.f....' am, at ,.,,,f..

Coaching staff are working with- these young players, and teach- ing them the skills needed to become Varsity Baseball ath- letes. The entire coaching staff feel that this will be one of there best winning seasons ever, be- cause of all the talent that these J .V. teammembers are showing. Baseball is a sport that takes a lot of training, good reflexes, and a lot of hussel. And unlike any other sport, baseball also takes a lot of practice and effort. Eldorado usually has an excel- lent baseball team throughout the years and they want this to happen again this season. That is why the baseball team mem- bers and the coaching staff are working extra hard to keep this happening and to have an even better team this year and all the baseball years to come.
