For the past four years the girls swim team has been very highly respected. This year didn't seem to change. They were second in the conference, with an 8-l record just behind Stillwater. They were defeated by Stillwater with a score of 82-90. What makes the swimmers con- sistency good year after year? The rowdiness adds to the team spirit and lets off feelings of en- thusiasm to keep their record going. Jane Nesbitt, adds, We worked hard and were very dedi- cated to the sport. We took workouts seriously which result- ed in a team at the peak of be- ing in shape. In performing all the differ- ent strokes their best proved to be relays, the back stroke and the fly. sg...

STRETCHING TO MAKE contact with the ball Senior Karen Swanson t f th S I k G t B dh dreaded middle attack, Hastiiiriss blelalt Sirk 2 e games to 1. 1980-81 VARSITY GIRLS VOLLEYBALL- Front row: Karen Swanson and Mary Io Kranz. Second row: Bev Tri, Diane Raway, Linda Whitson, Laura Santleman, Coach Vicki Dahlberg, Sharon Hovgaard, Nancy Iohnson and Sue Groskopf. Third row: Deb Holm and Wendy Livingston. Fourth row: Kim Busch and Mary Kramer. When the 1980 girls vollerball season began the Hastings Raid- ers were on the top of the con- ference charts. Nervous appre- hension was a common emotion displayed by opponents when they found out they were to play the Hastings Girls Volleyball team. But this emotion would seem to turn into pure psych as time after time Hastings opponents would just slide by the always tough Raider squad. To sum it all up, Senior Co- captain Mary Jo Kranz stated, The pressure would seem to get the best of us in the close ones. That may have been true for the close ones, but when the Raiders put their minds to win- ning, they won big! There was definitely two sides to this team which was reflected by their record of 4 wins and 5 loses. Senior All-Conference Winner, Kim Busch thought, F or some, it may have been a heart-break- ing season. But deep down I don't think any one player can ever regret it.
