An unusual amount ofanlrle injuries occurred this season, Chris Daugherty injured her ankle during one of the first games and missed most of the season. For- tunately, she returned in time for the league tournament. Later on in the season, guard, Diane Jarvis injured her ankle and was out for the tourna- ment. In spite of the team's misfortunes the Varsity Dragons won first place in the league tournament, and third place in the Oakland A. Winning the league tournament was encouraging but taking third in the Oakland A was a big disap- pointment, Chris Daugherty said. Linda Axsom stated, We didn't do as well as we had hoped for, but teams do have their ups and downs. The Varsity girls finished the season 16 and 5. Coach Elias concluded, Lots of hard work and many hours of prac- tice were beneficial.

I1 We were lea' by Soplzs Lori Campbell, Karen Miller, and Shannon SpangIer, according to coach Gary Kibby. The team won the J.V. championship with a 9 and 2 record. Shannon Spangler commented, As a member of the Lake Orion J.V. girls' basketball team, I think we had a great season, winning the cham- pionship. Mr. Kibby brought the team together and was behind us all the way. Daleann Blythe replied, This year's team had different goals from the year before. Last year no one really cared about bench warming. But this year, it seemed that people on the team' wanted to improve for themselves, not for the team. This year's MVP's were Lori Campbell and Judy Scribner. Shan- non Spangler was the most im- proved player, and Karen Miller was the best defensive player. . 68 J V Girls' Basketball!Cross Country THE OAKLAND A J.V.
