jally Shortz catapults the ball toward the net luring the St. Rita game. Winning 3rd place at CSSD in Kansas and having Kim Mann and Tracey Parker named to the CSSD All Star team highlighted our season. During the game against Missouri for 3rd place, we played terribly at first. At the end of the 3rd quarter we trailed 24 points. Then we began our comeback. We outscored them 26 to 4. We were tied at the final buzzer 50-50. From that point, I expected to win and we did 56-51, said Coach Reifel. The Comeback Was Terrific Girls Basketball Team; Front Row: Lisa Chamberlain, Krissie Loy, Regina Kyle, mgrs; 2nd Row: Peggy Steinberger, Patty Werth, Tammy Austin, Kim Mann, Denise Stiles, Yvonne Ackles, Sally Shortz; Back Row: Donna Webb, Gina Trowbridge, Tracey Parker, Coach Ann Reifel, Carie Scales, Davanna Beeson, Rhonda Fischer. During the Heritage Christian game. Coach Ann Reifel tells Donna Webb that she wants 14 more points. Rhonda Fischer (54), Sally Shortz (10) listen. Our team ' s greatest strength was our defense. We often out- rebounded or out played the opponents. Shooters who can shoot anywhere beyond 10 feet from the basket was our weakness. Junior, Donna Webb, a well- known thief on the court stole the ball an average of 4.2 times a game and her shooting average was 9.1 points per game. The most valuable player was Kim Mann and the most improved player was Davanna Beeson.

Experience Was The Key It was a winning season this year for these baseball players. They improved much since last year. Coach Catt says, I expected another good year this year because of the many returnees from last year and the experiences they brought back. The highlight of this season was winning the MISC Tourney and having a winning season ... The most difficult opponent was Baptist High. Our team won easily, 12-0, at the first of the season. But during the MISC Tourney, they had to hustle to win 6-4. Then they also beat Bethesda Christian 11-4 in their final game of MISC Tourney. Their greatest strength was having a good pitching staff; Dwight Casler did an outstanding job which helped the team. They all played good defense.
