Plays and strategies are essential to a game, as Coach Windsor explains one to the girls.

Defense is moving fast as Lisa Brummel is determined to get that ball, Varsity girls keep sinking 'em As a whole, the varsity girls bas- ketball squad was very similar to last year's. But some advantages the I98I-82 squad had over last year's was that they were taller and as a group still better shooters. Even with these advantages the girls nev- er stopped trying to better them- selves. Their defense improved quite a bit, as did their full-court press, shooting, and free throw per- centage. Baldwin proved to be the most important game for the girls. Bal- dwin and Garnett were both unde- feated going into the game. Accord- ing to Coach Windsor, the defeat showed where the girls stood, what they needed to improve on, and how much more work they needed to do to be a state-caliber ballclub. Giving it all she's got, Gerette Guilfoyle at- tempts to tip the ball to a teammate. Traveling to Greeley every other night to practice caused a few prob- Iems. Approximately 45 minutes of practice time was lost, and more time was spent on anothericourt rather than on one's own. Grdeley's gym has only two baskets, whereas Garnett's gym has six, therefore, not as much shooting could be done. And, also, the bus that took them to and from Greeley did not have a working heater sometimes. After I2 games, Courtney Herm- reck had dropped in a total of I64 points, and she averaged lO.9 points per game. Courtney also had the best field goal and free throw per- centages, 43.6 per cent and 80.0 percent consecutively. Ellen Adler had the most steals, 53, and assists, 35. As a team, the Lady Bulldogs had a total of 485 rebounds, with Ger- ette Guilfoyle grabbing l36 of them.

Their most improved points were individual fundamentals. teamwise, they executed the fast break and press defense, and they shot a better percent of field goals. Man-to-man defense was a slight problem for them, but this was ironed out as the season pro- gressed. Two of the toughest contenders the team had were Tonganoxie and DeSoto. Tongi had been undefeated for a year and a half when the girls beat them 29-26 on Dec I7. DeSoto was another tough team for the rea- son that they were first in league when Garnett beat them, 29-24, on Jan. I4. Coach Ryman summed up the season by saying, I've really en- joyed working with the girls, have enjoyed the enthusiasm they dis- played, and that they worked to their utmost ability. They conduct- ed themselves as ladies and showed sportsmanship on the court. I just hope the future holds good things for them. GIRLS J.V. BASKETBALL - ll9
