Taking On TOUGH COMPETITION Mazama's Girls Varsity Soccer team finished third in the conference with 7 wins and 3 losses. One of the closest and most interesting contests was the KU-Mazama game. KU missed one of their shots at the goal late in the game. But Mazama came up with the same shot and made it, winning the game 1-0. The most dissapoint- ing game was against Ash- land. Mazama lost by one point because one of the refs didn't make an offsides call on Ashland which gave Ashland a clear chance at the goal. One of the high- lights this year was the high level of competition due to all of the other great teams in the conference. There was also a new team this year, Roseburg. next year there will be a lot more underclassmen on the team due to the num- ber of graduating seniors (6). These new players will have had more practice be- cause they started playing at a younger age; they should be very able to sup- port Mazama's winning team next year. This year's record wasn't quite as good as Coach Fat Moran thought it would be because he felt that we had better speed and talent than the other teams.'' Team awards went to: April Holmes and Laurie Northrop, most valuable; Jamie Gallagher, most im- proved; Tracie Santos, coach's award; Angela Lo- pez, most spirited; and Car- rie Pool, most inspitational. Cori Pool Kicks the ball clear of the competition. Corrie also was voted most inspirational.

Playoff bound GOING ALL THE WAY That was the goal of the varsity volleyball team. And with the win over South Medford, a playoff berth was secured. South Med- ford had the home court advantage and a tough crowd to back them up, but Mazama won in two straight matches. This was the first time that the Mazama varsi- ty volleyball team had ever went to the playoffs. It was also the first time that Ma- zama ever beat Hidden Val- ley at Hidden Valley. The team had good heigth and was made up of all seniors except Janel Hanson a 6-1 sophomore. The volleyball team was afraid that Janel was going to move before the volley- ball season began, but she decided to wait until next year before she leaves. next year will be a real building year for the varsity volleyball team with no re- turners playing on the team. This was also Pat Ward's last year coaching. Although there won't be any returners there will be some good consistent play- ers like Julie Renfro who will be a junior and Wendy Bursell and Stacy Boyd who will be seniors. It was one of the best all around years that the varsi- ty volleyball team has ever had because of them mak- ing the playoffs. Although next year will be a building year,Mazama volleyball will always be a team to con- tend with. Spike it.- Dawn Gregory powers it down for another Viking point.
