Larry Parr practices in the gym. ,ff-S P i f After tying the Kellam record for wins in a season last year with thirteen victories one would think that this year s team might be satisfied to rest on its laurels. The goal of the 1979 team, however, was to continue the recent upsurge in Kellam's baseball fortunes. Since the team lost only five players from last year's team. its intention seems to be within reason. The experienced squad is led by seniors Brian Carlson, Larry Parr, Steve Murray, David lzahxg Keeder Mike Welch Tim I-lat ton and Mike Riggs Iumor standouts include Ioey Mrllxs Bret Harley lack Siar Fred Braswell, Brian Dees, Scott Hughes, lack Graffg sophomores are Mike Stubbs, Andy Parr, Ieff Brillhart, Larry Setzer, Danny Travers, Chuck Chappelle, and Scott Dees. Coach Sykes is quick to point out, however, that this year's team cannot afford to relax. If we are going to do well, it will good team attitude from every player We should be among the top teams in the district and we hope we can bring home a championship for Kellam. I be- lieve that this team has the character. ability, and desire to be number one in the district. If they work, hard, work together and believe in their abilities, we should have a very success- ful year.
