Girls reach state finalsg all back he Girls Track Team has displayed fine talent over the past four years, and last year was no exception. Valarie Hawkins, Belinda Taylor, Gina Bradford, and Beatrice Holland helped to lead the team to great heights. The girls ended their regu- lar season with an impres- sive record of 8-2. The girls excelled in several events such as the 400 meter relay, the 800 meter, and the half r- mile relay. As the girls headed for the city track meet in hopes of victory, they finished with a respectable 5th of a field of 12 schools. Some of the most outstanding events were the four and eight hun- dred meter relays in which we placed first, the 100-me- ter dash where Gina Brad- ford grabbed a second, and the 200-meter dash where Beatrice Holland received a first. Next came the sectionals at Lawrence North. The girls received a third in a field of 12 schools. Leading the way was our fine meter relay teams which received a first place. . The girls continued on to the regionals and then ad- vanced to the state finals. The team finished with an over all 12th place of a field of 30 schools. l'm looking forward to having a great season this year because we didn't lose anyone. We also have a lot of fine and talented underclass- men that will lead the way. said Belinda Taylor.

Just watch u next year! - Deal nthusiasm and hard work go hand in hand if one wants to set out to accom- plish a goal. The JMHS Girls Tennis Team has both of those qualities. This year's team may not have had a good year statis- tically, but, these girls worked hard and played their best. Our team was too inexpe- rienced, stated Coach John Deal, but we should have a great team next year. As one philosopher said, lt's not if you win or lose, but how you play the game. We think it was Deal! by Bryan Thompson ff' B0-:cami li H M-frame gi fP !:m' 133 It YV! I .
