GIRLS HAVE SMALL, BUT TOUGH TEAM! The track season started with a disappointing number of 10 girls. Through the progress of the season, because of injury that number fell to 7. But with good effort, the team had a lot of suc- cess. Robi Black led the Raiderettes with a total of 110 points accumulated in the low hurdles, long jump, high jump, and the 400 meter relay. Close behind was Kristin Hannan with 99M points ac- cumulated in 100m, 200m, 400m runs, and 400 and 1600 meter relays. The next 2 high point getters were Dawn Hannan with 43!4 and Anita Luetkenhaus with 42V . Robi Black set a new school record of 16' in the long jump and tied her 1981 record of 16.4 in the 100m hurdles. Dawn Parkins set a new record in the 3200m run with a time of 13:314. Mr. Ortgies, Head Coach, was pleased with the overall good effort, and the overall improvement of the limited 7 member team. The good effort showed up when they captured 2nd place out of 13 teams at the Decatur River Relays; and with the seniors gone, the remaining 5 captured 3rd place at Conestoga. With rains hampering Districts, it drowned out any hopes for the girls to go to state! FRONT ROW. L to R P Johnson. 'Student Mgr.i. D. Parkins. J Nelson. J Behrens. (Student Mgr ). V. Schultz.
