BASEBALL High Class burns Rebels Extra innings in lust district game We out-classed Richland both times we played themg we're just a better ball club because we were better coached, center fielder Carl Anderson said. The Buffs shut- out Richland in the first conflict when Steve Thomas pitched a one hitter. In the second game against Richland the Buffs came from behind to win when Kevin Reeves hit a three run homer. It appeared that everyone realized we were behind and believed we should be win- ning. From that point on we dominated, Coachjohn Pafford said. ln the last district game against Arlington the Buffs came from behind again scoring three runs with one out left in the bottom of the eleventh inning. After Alton Boener knocked in the tying run, Brad Danford bat- ted in the winning run. Reeves led the team in batting with an average of .472. Danford, Marty Parker, and Steve Thomas had batting averages of 596, 315, and 501. Anderson led the team in stolen bases with 10. Reeves also led the team in runs batted in with 22 and runs with 17. . Q we 1 e. ' 1 if . ' tt Y . i.wi:2E.ks.. .V - .1 . g K. It I X 4 g 4 . . if-N Q.

140 GYMNASTICS Accommodations, coach aid program New gym shared with Highsteppers, football team A new coach, new gym, and new equip- ment boosted the gymnastics team. Coach Roland Rangel, an L. D. Bell gym- nast and graduate of Louisiana State Universi- ty, was formerly a gymnastics coach for four years at Harwood junior High in the Hurst- Euless-Bedford School District. Carpeting, plenty of room, and used mainly for gymnastics were some reasons why the program began in one ofthe best facilities in the area with the North Gym being finished at the end oflast year. This was the first year that the gymnastics team has had accommoda- tions, although the gym was shared with the Highsteppers and occasionally the football team during bad weather. Newly purchased equipment added to the newness of the gym, A trampoline, floor exer- cise pad, uneven bars, rings, vaulting horse, and various pieces of apparatus were accumulated. Workouts began in late August and con- tinued through April, while competition rang- ed fromjanuary to April, though the team did participate in the Marine corps Physical Fitness Contest at the State Fair in October. In district competition the boys' team plac- ed second behind Richland, and the girls' team placed second behind Boswell but defeated Richland, I'm interested in building up a team and a boys and girls program in the school and in the community. l believe in people gaining by their own success. an atmosphere of fun as well as hard work, and that a person should always enjoy what hes doing. said Coach Rangelnx District 5 agp .i Q , ,ki' ' 7 'Qin fe i 2 ix 5 .
