IAM! inning Season by: Tina Heires This was a good year due in large part to the quality of gals we had on the teamg both playing and on the bench, said head coach Mike Marty. Marty expected to have a good season with several returning letterwinners, such as, Tammy Shanahan '83, Iulie Rossman '83, Lori Esser '83, and Lisa Guns '84. Marty felt that their sea- son had a series of peaks, where his team played very well, These peaks were the first Wahlert match, the Bettendorf Tournament, in which the team took first, and the final two district games. Marty praised the play of several people: junior Iulie Doerr and senior Deb Stop- pelmoor. Their individual skills progressed enough to 11 lulie Rossman '83 spikes the ball over the neli as lulie Doerr '84 watches. photo by Karl Anderson move them into varsity play. Marty felt that they were doing an excellent job by the end of the season. Five Mustang players received recognition for their skills and were placed on Mississippi Valley Conference teams. Tammy Shanahan '83, and Iulie Rossman '83, received 1st team all-conference honors. Marty felt that injuries could have possibly played a role in his season. Iolene Neyen, '84, a starter, missed the last half of the season, and would have been a definite help, said Marty. Kim Schroeder '85 also missed the last half of the season. Marty said, I feel that the program is and will continue to grow as one of Hempstead's strongest ath- letic programs. 31 Lisa Guns '84 attempts to block the spike of Kim Schroeder '85 during a spiking drill. photo by Pam Trent 1 .1-ff' ,I .

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.

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.
