Girls Go For It There is a type of basketball other than boys' at Hauser, and it took a sectional win for fans to realize that,” commented senior Lu-cretia Glick. After a record breaking season of 14-2, the Hauser Varsity Girls’ Basketball team went on to be the first Hauser basketball team to win a sectional. Building up to the sectional win was the game against Batesville, according to senior Miriam Hayes. It was the first game after Christmas and up until then we didn't really have it going too well, but after that win, things started coming together.” Having all the players back from last year, including all the starting five, was a real advantage. We’ve played together since sev- enth and eighth grade, commented junior Kim Nading, so we know how to work together as a team. In the sectional, it finally came down to the fact that we had wanted it so bad and worked so hard, that we had to get it, and we did.” After they started to work as a team and won the sectional title, the fans realized what they had been missing. A lot of people had never seen a girls’ basketball game before, so they didn’t know what it was all about, remarked Coach Joe Burney. Winning was great, but it wasn’t the important thing, what we got accomplished was. The team received more publicity and recognition and that helps a lot. In the final game of the regional, Kelly Finke goes up for two points to add to her total of 8 points. Despite her efforts, the Jets lost the final game by 10 points.

Pressing For The Future “I'm real pleased with the way the team played this year, said Coach Cindy Sare. “They ended up with a good record for such a young team.” The girls reserve basketball team was made up of mostly freshmen, a few sophomores and one junior, but because some of the older players played on the varsity team, the reserve games were played mostly by the younger teammates. The reserve team ended the season with an overall record of 10-7. They lost only one game in the conference, which was against South Decatur by 3 points. We played well until the last minute, commented Miss Sare. Andy Honeycutt did a great job in coaching them, but in the conference, South Decatur broke through our press and made some easy scores. The mistake that the team made in the conference was that they fell into a man to man instead of a 2-3 zone, continued Miss Sare. “We needed better full court pressure. The future for the reserve team looks very good. Team members who will remain on the team, along with upcoming junior high players promise a bright future for the reserve team, I’m looking forward to a good team and a good season next year, concluded Miss Sare. Junior Janet Howe shoots past a Brown-stown player and adds two points to Hauser's score.
