Lack of height doesn't stop team n riM crirct Above: Pam Hawkins tries for the jump shot as Pam Bums looks on. Below: Asthe Fordson Girls' Basketball team mobs Coach Kreger, fans hear him yell, Wait — Wait, I tell you it wasn't my fault! Exceptional is one of the many adjectives that can be used to describe the 1981-1982 Girls' Basketball team. Their lack of height did not stop them as they dribbled on to capturing the Suburban Eight League Title. Leading this year's squad are the two senior co-captains, Pam Hawkins and Holly Montrief, otherwise known as sisters . Other outstand- ing players include seniors Mary Ann Onyskin, Pam Burns, and Bev Howe, and junior Candy Rich. Coach John Kreger's opinion is expressed in his saying, Captains set the pace of the team; Seniors are who you win with. Defensive quickness and hustling are two things which helped this team on to victory, not to mention an outstanding performance by Pam Hawkins. Mr. Kreger said, Even though we're small, we're very, very quick. The problems of little height and young, in- experienced players were a hinderance, though. Mr. Kreger expresses his belief in the team in that if they find their roles, and accept them emotionally, we can grow into a better team. 14
