. . .is a sport where girls get an opportunity to meet people both on a competitive and social basis where they begin to see the im- portance of teamwork, physical conditioning, mental alertness, and co-ordination. Mr. I-Ieien . . .is a ball. It was an oppor- tunity for me to enjoy myself through many other people. Pat Young 73 . . .is a fine opportunity for the team and for me to have a good time, but yet to be working for a goal of excellence. Cindy Ioiner 75 I enjoyed the season this year. I think we had a good season and a good team to look forward to next year. God was with us always! Barb Martens 75 I thought that the season was generally successful, as you can see from our overall record of 12-3, and the fact that we finished in second place at South Division, being second only to the Varsity. I thought that we had a good team balance. Probably a greater em- phasis on team play, rather than having to depend on one individ- ual. I think the only problem of the season was our lack of height, and they made that up by the ef- fective defense.
