M Hard work oavs off for vounq teams The freshman girls volleyball team proved that the age old addage that practice is the first step down the golden pathway to success still holds true. Under the expert guidance of Coach Steve White, now in his second year as mentor of the freshman volleyball team, the Lady Rams cruised to an 18-5 season, in- cluding an I 1-3 record in dis- trict play. The freshman year is often considered a year spent learning the fundamentals, and this year ' s squad showed they could do that and win some games as well. For the second straight year the team captured the championship match of the prestigious Northside tourna- The Fresh vn.cor - celebrate after anuth ment. Our other highlight was taking second place in the South San tournament, said Coach White. The success of this year ' s freshman squad lay not only in their record, but in the expe- rience and maturity they gained in their first year of high school volleyball. It was a season that will prepare them well for the future. The key to having a success- ful season in any sport is team- work. That is exactly what led the Lady Rams J.V. Volleyball team to their 10-4 record this season. The girls did a great job. They were extremely de- termined, said second-year coach Marsha Holt. Overall the J.V. rolled right over the opposition, but the sea- son did contain one very intense moment. In the middle of the season they faced Clark here at Marshall. Clark won the first game I ' J-IS. In the second game the girls came back, beat- ing Clark n-13. The final game was the longest battle they have ever played, said Holt. Both teams fought long and hard, but the Lady Rams triumphed winning 16-14. Although the J.V. team had many experienced players, twu young ladies outshined the rest. Sophomore Jennifer Goldberg was an outstanding hitter and blocker, said Holt. Another upcoming underclassman was Junior Laurie Klein, team cap- tain and all around outstanding player. We had an ex- cellent season. The girls worked hard and won. Most importantly, we had fun doing it.
