The softball team was unofficial and played in an unauthorized league, explained coach David Malone. Dave Malone coached the team in his own spare time, and was not paid. Harold Carlin, Athetic Director, provided the team with baseballs. We all had a lot of fun. Everyone got to play quite a bit, no one was ever left out, added Coach Malone. . r' The team placed very high among their competitors, finishing with six wins and three losses. According to Kim Vollmer, Since the team was unof- ficial, we only played 9 games but it was still great! Next year Lake Orion will hopefully have an official Junior Varsity softball team.

is Q T E s .3 We han' a gona' time simply because most of the guys were hard workers. They worked well together which helped them to get off to a good start. Pitching and batting were inconsistant and con- tributed much to our mid-season slump. The Junior Varsity baseball team was a young group consisting of 15 sophomores and 3 juniors. The last couple of games the guys came in with a strong finish, ten wins, ten losses, added Coach Kib- by. Mike Wotton concluded, We had a great time. l think this year was a great success! ,Tig T 3 513.11 5 A Aw ff I -f ' if Q ,Y i ' .
