Because of the inten- sity of the Hillcrest game, tickets were sold during lunch in Ms. Babb's office. Parking lot security as well as gym security was increased. The Hillcrest game is al- ways one of our best games. We really look forward to it every year, said senior for- ward Heather Lynch. Injuries also plagued the Mavericks. Four of the start- ing five girls were out with injuries at least once during the regular season. Missy Sul- livan, Tabetha Stevens, Heather Lynch and Mary Jones all suffered ankle or leg injuries at some point. It was really tough work- ing the team around the inju- ries, We didn't play up to par after eveyone got back, said Stevens. The ladies finished up the season by winning more than SOR of their games and suf- fered only a handful of disap- pointing losses. We lost by blowouts to Westside ibut they're 31 in the statej, and our other big disappointing loss was to Laurens. We could have played better, said junior wing Missy Sullivan.
