UA, so In b.. s.: s 'M ' lv . a 4-5 X' ' 154' lhgalls' Diamond are a Girl' Best Friend The softball team continued their tradition of high scoring by becoming District Champions for the second year in a row. They put up a stiff fight for the regional title but after eight hard-fought innings, Kecoughtan won,2 to 1. Practice certainly makes perfect as shown when the softball team lost their first two district games but then came back to win ten games in a row. This made their record over two years, thirty-seven wins and six losses. This year's MVP was Cecile Benitez and Lisa Westcott was Rookie of the Year.Lisa Westcott also won the Norfolk Sports Club Award for the Best Softball Player. Coach Bowman's outlook for '88 is another District Regional Championship and he and the team are ready to make a return trip to West Virginia to bring back the gold. Mr. Bowman is thankful for the help Coach Flash McCullin gave in helping the team reach their high level ofvictory. Mrs. Midkiff and her student trainers helped out by keep- ing the team in top form and the parents were a loyal following to the games. Coach Bowman's favorite memory of the year, how- ever, was when the team took a cooler of Gatorade and dumped it over his head as a victory shower after the District finals, The team worked hard and their records speak for themselves, Western Branch 3 Bayside 8 Kempsville 6 Cox 6 Princess Anne 5 Great Bridge 7 Granby 3 Edison 4 Bayside 0 First Colonial 2 Kellam O Nansemond-Suffolk 2 Kempsville 7 Bethel 4 Cox 2 Princess Anne 2 First Colonial 0 Kellam 4 Bayside 1 Lake Taylor 0 Kecoughtan 2 l 4 Sports 'I 85
