First Year For Girls' Volleyball The girls of Jefferson High School were offered volleyball as a new interscholastic sport this year. Forty-three girls signed up for the team. Coach Delany had the task of cutting the team to fifteen players who were capable of spiking, setting, digging, and serving the ball. She then had to teach the girls proper technique, correct positioning, and suitable plays. The young team consisted of three seniors, four juniors, six sophomores, and two freshmen. They worked hard to achieve success, but unfortunately, the efforts of the team and Coach Delany failed to produce a winning season. In fact, they succeeded in winning only one match. This was against Edgerton with a final score of 2 out of 3 games. The team elected Carol Erie as Most Valuable Player, and Jessica Dempsey was selected as Captain. VOLLEYBALL. ROW 1: A. Kramer. A.

Anita Pineda Wins MVP Strength, determination, agility, and poise are essential in gymnastics. Patience to learn new stunts and routines. discipline, mastering of equipment and the stamina to perform in front of people has created a new type of girl athlete. Although they have just started to scratch the surface of girls sports, they are here to stay. The turn out for gymnastics was still relatively small. Since there were so few participating in intermediate and optional levels, the gymnasts had about half the scoring power as their opponents. Coached by Vicki Van Galder, they placed fifth in the Badger Conference. Junior Anita Pineda, one of two all-arounds, was chosen most valuable performer.
