SOCCE. A 1st Gets 2nd ' ' T m glad that they decided to hav. X a girls ' soccer team my first year at North, said freshman Bianca Lopez. For the first time in the history of North, a girls ' soccer team was formed and played in a league with three other teams.

I liked playing on the team better because the players were on more equal levels. Before the season began, the team was coachless. Three weeks prior to the first game, the girls found one in Pete King. King turned out to be a good choice because he was very supportive and ev- eryone liked him. We all loved Pete, said Emily Heath. He was very nice and coached us very well. iad that th ed to have a gir team my first North. • ' ™jsa . For a first year team, the girls were very successful, placing second in Ivy with only two losses. These two close losses (1-0) were to Poly, who finished first. After losing to Poly 1 -0 the first time, we thought we could beat them the second, but they slipped by us again, explained Emily Blain. Despite the two losses, the team was suc- cessful its first season and became a wel- come addition to North ' s athletic pro- gram. • • GIRLS ' SOCCER TEAM; FRONT ROW: Nina Smitli, Emily BUin, M.umi ! iI... t:.!i..
