Volleyball Big Hit; JVTeam Gains Experience Co-ed volleyball became a hit with both the faculty and the student body. When the plan was initially intro- duced by assistant principal Tim Walter and activities director Ever- ette Hicks, many of the students were only mildly enthusuastic but, as the season grew nearer, the teams grew in number to twenty-two. The teams were composed independently by in- terested participants with their own elected captains. Each game was played at an assigned time in either the boys’ or girls’ gym. At the end of the season the top four teams com- peted for the championship. Because of its newness in strengthening stu- dent-teacher relationship, it received publicity in the Virginia School Journal. “The team’s record wasn’t too im- pressive,” said Coach Bill Robbins, “but the players did gain experience and some improved greatly.” Steve Tapscott started slow with some er- rors at first base but really came through at season’s end. Hard slugger Tom Hayes was a batting asset on a team filled with bunting pros Mike Barberry, Neil Coffey, Pat Kirk, and Bill Wash. Pitching were Steve Tap- scott, Ricky Updike, Neil Coffey and Ed Blair who was better overall with a 3.14 earned run average and a two win, one loss record. Ronnie Gardner demonstrated speed as the key to rightfielding. Leftfielder Bill Wash and shortstop Tim Blowe also showed skill with the glove. The season ended with a 4-11-0 record and an experi- enced team ready for the upcoming year. Volleyball. Front Row: Maria Williams, Marie Ivey, Sandra Terry, Susan Richard- son.
