Ties Unlimited A team can ' t play field hockey if they can ' t get to the game. They also have a little trouble playing if someone steals the net from their goal. Or do they? The Minne- chaug team found a way. They asked for directions and made it to the game and even borrowed Ludlow ' s net . One thing they had problems with was the cold. At times they had to peel their fingers off the stick . But, as they say, there ' s not much you can do . The team managed to conquer these set- backs and keep their spirit intact. On the bus to an away game they can be found chanting one of their original cheers set to the song ' Old MacDonald ' or the Armour Hot Dog Jingle . Before an important game they had a breakfast of doughnuts and or- ange juice at the house of two of the play- ers. The reaction of the team when they win a game is predicatable. We scream our fool heads off. 1. Diana Demetrius, Senya Bennett, Coach Nesbitt and Mary Guthrie congratulate Peggy Murphy after a fan- tastic goal. 2. Senior Nancy Donovan reaches to pass the ball as Mary Guthrie looks on. 3. Senya Bennett solitarily contemplates the upcoming game. 4. Ann Misiaszek bows her head to the team prayer. 5. Man- ager Amy Grill and friend speculate with much enthu- siasm. 6. Goalie Linda Stecher watches the action at the other end of the field along with Sharon Usher and Chris Leone. iasmntM tr m insntmii SISI3S »Hr IHUUiniw: ■- ' .•mm ir imrmv.nwK m umm ' •-•r. lusta. ,.
