Photo by Lisa Stubbs. -1- TO THE TOP i Varsity Makes Playoffs The surge of energy burst through the players as they ran on the field prepared to play the deciding district game against Klein Forest. The Falcons came out on top with a big victory pushing them into the playoffs. That had to have been our hardest game, explained Robb Jensen, only because winning district was on the line. There was so much pressure to perform well alsof' Performing well and mak- ing the playoffs seemed to be the entire team's goal. We made it to the playoffs and with that, we're satisfied. We really wanted to place in the playoffs and also go to state, but we didn't quite reach that goal, Stephen Moore explained after reex- amining the year. However, added pitcher Matt Howard, we are the district champs! The successful year was possible because of hard working and caring coaches. As we look back on the year, it's been the coaches that have picked us up game after game. Lance Smith continued, They have been here with us through the good and the bad games. Coaches are not the ones that play the game though - it's the players ability tha shows up on the field. Tl two most common playe: mentioned for their abilii were Matt Howard with h hitting and Lance Smith Wit his batting. It's not the most outstar ding players who count in tk game of baseball, Mai Howard thoughtfullj reflected. Baseball is nc just a one man sport. If on guy does good, it's because h has and needs the entire tear behind him, backing him up. Written by Dawn Leaver: 236 Varsity Baseball Double Page Spread by Dawn Leaver
