SAFE! 3rd Year Champs by Tina Heires Defeating Senior 7-0 to win the Hempstead Tour- nament for the third year in a row, was considered the peak of the season by head softball coach Iohn O'Con- nell, The team finished the season with an over all record of 24-7. O'Connell thought that the team had a good season, and was ex- tremely happy with the team's accomplishments. Outstanding players in O'Connell's opinion were freshmen Kim Schroeder, Ann Callahan, and the three senior captains, Sarah Gottschalk, Roxy Hantel- man, and Chris O'Neill. O'Connell also praised the play of junior Iennifer Van Etten, who was named to 1st team all-conference, 11 layne Iochum '83 looks to find the ball, as she safely crosses home plate. photo by: Karl Anderson and 3rd team all-state. Overall, the players thought that they had a good season, and were pleased with their perfor- mances. Pam Dralle '84 said, I feel that it was a good season, because we went further than people expected us to. Beth Schumacher '85 said, It was a fun season, and I thought that we played really well together. Being named Coach of the Year left O'Connell with mixed emotions. I was honored that my fellow coaches felt that I did such a fine job, said O'Connell. But he also disliked the award, I feel that the kids should get all the credit, after all it is largely their effort that will win or lose a game, said O'Connell. 21 Iennifer Van Etten '83 thinks about the last play, as she walks back to the dug-out. photo by: Karl Anderson E .,.,. il' n 'X I if sf r A 2 X! 11.711 31 Front row: Roxy Hantelman, Chris O'Neill, Sarah Gottschalk Middle row: Iayne Iochum, Ien- nifer Van Etten ulie Schmitt dorf Back row: Coach Iohn O'Con- nell, Ann Callahan, Kim Scl'u'oeder, Pam Dralle, Michelle 24 , I , Rupp, Amy Krouse, Coach Ioe jackie McCain, Michelle Arens- Ottavi Cascade C.

MVC Champs, 7th Year by Renae Reardon Winning the conference championship for the second year in a row and the seventh time in the last nine years was the high point of our season, said Richard Core, head varsity coach. Winning the four team Marion Tournament, which had four ranked teams, moved us into the itl spot in the state and we held that ranking for the rest of the season.

Core said, We ended the season with a 21-4 record overall and we were MVC Champs with a conference record of 10-2. Sophomore coach Gary Koppes said, We played consistently good ball all season and there was progress as the season went on. The pitching was excel- lent and our hitting showed steady improvement. I thought we would have a good team but I was not expecting a 17-1 record. We definitely exceeded my ex- pectationsf' Freshman coach, Bob Fouche, said, Even though we ended with a 7-14 record, we played consis- tently better as the season progressed. We played some teams much closer the second time around. 2j Mark and Terry Delaney congratulate Randy Pfeiffer as he returns from hitting a home run. Photo by Karl Anderson. 14 West 0 A C. R.
