1' is Posstnt.E T0 GET WHAT YDU DESERVE Practice and determination helped to defeat the right teams. 4'When we blew away Mt. View, it was great! The feeling of being able to beat them after a few years of being beaten by them made it the best game of the year? ivalry excites all, es- pecially the JV boys basketball team. The boys agreed their most exciting game was the second game against Mt. View. Sophomore David Hillstead said, That was the best game because a lot of people were there. The crowd was yelling loudly. They had beaten us before by one point, so we wanted to beat them. Junior Bryan Searle added, When we blew away Mt. View, it was great! The feeling of being able to beat them after a few years of being beaten by them made it the best game of the year. The JV basketball team prepared for each game by sitting in the lockerroom visualizing the game and how to play their position. This psyched them for the contest. Hillstead said, During warmups we were supposed to be serious and not goof- off. We were supposed to do normal lay-ups, not fancy stuff. The most difficult game situation was the first game against Mt. View. At the end we were down by a couple of points, but lost by one point. The crowd was there scream- ing and yelling, which makes a lot of pressure, said Searle. Coach Layne Parmenter noted, Both I and the team were always nervous to play against Mt.View. The games against Mt. View are the biggest for us. Hillstead added, The toughest situation was when we were playing Mt. View and had a chance to win. We had three shots and missed all of them, and Mt. View won. Even though he said he didn't play much, Junior Jonathan Witt said, The practices were always fun. The team worked hard doing the drills, hoping to beat the varsity win-loss record. We played really well at the end of the season. We could have beaten anybody then, because the team was together, noted Hillstead. Eye contact. Concentration is part of the game as Junior Bryan Searle attempts a technical shot. Help wanted.

The cagers were above average in height this season, a luxury Head Coach Scott Ehlers lacked with his boys' team. He said they ranged from a 5-foot-11-inch senior to a 5-foot-5-inch junior, making the average height about 5-feet-7 inches. The team also enjoyed five seasoned seniors and three juniors with varsity experi- ence. '4The team didn't just have a main five, they had a strong bench of at least eight players deep, said Ehlers. Senior Anita McCreary said, 'fl thought we worked better together as a team, but we could have done better. We had plenty of talent and the desire to win.
