M© W I feel like this is the best volleyball team from Reagan. Every year our pro- gram gets better and better. I ' m proud of the players because of their enthusiasm and hustle, commented Coach Cheryl Lyman. Before district play began, the girls ' var- sity volleyball team played in the Kerrville tournament August 29 and the Big Red tournament September 3. At both events, team co-captain Lynda Ambrose was named to the all-district team and Reagan won consolation out of 16 participants. Although the team met a loss at their first district game against Austin 10-15, 15-9, 13-15, they came back and defeated LBJ 15-9, 15-2. Reagan then fell to Johnston 5-15, 5-15, and to McCallum 8-15, 15-7, 13-15. The spikers won their next four games, including an impressive 15-7, 15-4 triumph over the district leader, Lanier. This brought their first half record to 5-3. Starting off second-half play with a 15- 11, 15-8 win over LBJ, Reagan was looking forward to a victorious remainder of the season, but then lost to Austin 5-15, 9-15, and Johnston 14-16, 7-15. The spikers came back to defeat McCallum 15-10, 12- 15, 15-4, were stopped by Anderson 15-12, 10-15, 12-15, and then won against Crockett 15-8, 15-8. The Raiders ended the season with a district record of 8-8. Deborah Wilborn felt that We had some real good games when we played as a team. But in a couple of games we had, like a downfall, where we weren ' t communicating.
