Long, sweaty, hard practices, five and six days a week paid off, as the team rolled on to victories in the county and regional meets. They also made a good showing at the state meet, taking sixth out of sixty- three teams. This was only the second year that the girl’s team had been awarded a varsity letter, and along with this step up, the level of competition rose. The girls feel that they are up to it though. As most of the team will be returning in ' 74, everyone agrees with Paula Girven, voted the most outstanding team member, that something bigger is in store.’’ d Row 1 Lois Grindle, Paula Girven.
