GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY a- at 9p,LT0 Nabors and Richardson admire trophies. Runners blaze trail Varsity places first in district by Christy Angle On, my gosh, What is this? Cross country was over a week ago. They took us all the way to first in district. When are we going to get a rest, or even a little odor eater? A week in the back of a dark closet and I'd be satisfied. I remember the day it started. I was brand new not a speck of dirt on me. Then it began, from 2:30-4:30 or even 5:00, long distance work up to five miles, repeat quarters, and 880's, weights and then hills. Oh, those hills! We know what you mean. You weren't the only pair out there, but what I remember most is regionals. 67 teams were entered. I never thought they would go as far as to qualify for state. That was the scary part. The team was so nervous on their way to Georgetown. We never even got a chance to be nervous or get out of those gym bags and stretch our laces until it was time to trudge through the grass and dirt one last time. We didn't do too bad- ly for competing in eleven meets. Though we should give the team some credit. They did run their fastest times ever individually, and as a team qualified twelfth in state. If it were up to me I would say we were the key to the team's success. After all we were the sole ofthe whole team. Coach Authur Tribble said, When you have a group of intelligent athletes that can understand what a goal is and the work it will take to reach it, you have an excellent chance of having a successful team. Sometimes it's hard to imagine why so- meone would want to run a pair of shoes, or themselves so much. Joanne Richardson said, It's not as hard as people think. It's fun when you're on a winning team and you have a good coach. Shoes are a lot like cross country teams, neither one gets much respect as far as sup- port goes. Coach Tribble said, I think the girls feel neglected a little bit, but they know they need to work hard whether they get recogni- tion or not because they're all working for scholarships. All the girls will be back next year striding towards the top three in state. Maybe then we will get a chance to view the scenery. Q, junior, Carrie Hart brings in eleventh place in district competition.
