Coach Wiles stated, Looking at this season I think this years team was one of the best we’ve ever put on the floor. We had more people that could do more things, but we could never put it all together in a match. The team showed what they could do against the two AAA teams. Bend and Redmond. In both games we showed what our potential was. The Bend match scores were 4-15, 15-7, 14-16. Coach Wiles commented, They played Bend right to the hill then let them slip through their fingers.” Four of the top six varsity starters, Jackie Estimo, Joanie Hatfield, Mary Nelson, and Mina Shike, will be missed next season due to graduation. Coach Wiles recognized Jackie as a fine defensive player. Joanie was an outstanding spiker. She also received, Coach Wiles stated, the most valuable award. Mary, a first year volleyball player started from scratch to district all stars. She also was the recipient of the most improved” player. Mina showed us her great serving throughout the season. For this she was awarded the Super S” award. Roberta Koch and Joanie Hatfield were honorable mentions at district. Donna Elston was voted most inspirational . Fay Hurtado received the Super $” award for her setting. Looking to next years season Wiles feels very optimistic about it. I think next years team will be better, and with the format of two teams being able to go to state from each district. Wiles stated. We’ll possibly have the chance of going to state. They’re going to have a good nucleus to work around with the outstanding sophomores coming up and four varsity players remaining. Carmel Squimphen a valuable setter wasn’t able to finish the season because of an injury. 16
