Goacrr rants ovnn nnoo TEAM EXHIBITS BETTER GO0BDl ATl0 Humor and personal assessment pull the JV girls together to work as cz team. It teaches me not to be so self- ish and that I can't always have my way? QV n Saratogal was playing in the varsity game. When I went to shootl thought a girl was going to foul me, but she didn't and I shot all the way over the back board. Mr. Ehlers stood up with both arms straight in the air and said, 'It's good,' like in football for a field goal, Sophomore Traci Platts said. The J V team had some funny experiences this season. One day Mr. Ehler's left the gym to go get the balls, and he tripped over a broom and fell right on his face, Platts added. The girls quite often analyzed their teammates. Sophomore Stephanie Eyre f ' ' ' E at .wt waffm v ' I ,- ? F vi, ,,-' said, Angie Sawyer made the strongest showing. She spent lots of extra time with coach and worked her hardest to do her best. Stefanie Thomas made the strongest showing on the team because at the begin- ning of the season she was a bencher. Over the season she became tougher and showed her stuff. By the end of the season she was playing a lot in the games, added Sopho- more Teresa Vigil. Sophomore Tami Scott noted, Stephanie Eyre made the strongest showing because she began on the JV team and worked hard enough to be a starter on the varstiy team by the end of the season. The JV girls basketball team leamed to work together. We started our season a little shaky, but most of the time we played well together, Scott said. The team has worked together well since seventh grade, said Sophomore Stefanie Thomas. We will do really well in the future, we are learning what it takes to build a winning team. During the season the girls had reached personal accomplishments. My personal accomplishment this season was to be able to get the ball down to our basket, Eyre said. Basketball helped develop the players' character. lt teaches me not to be so selfish and that I canit always have my way, said Vigil. I have four other girls that I have to work with?
