A Freslilueli Fill Slums of Foriuer l'laje1'.' With a 12-7 season record, the 1981 frosh-soph baseball team finished in second place during league play. Since more than half of the team members were sophomores, they joined the 1982 varsity team as juniors. Returning outstanding frosh-soph play- ers from 1981 included Larry Collins, Stuart Dewitt and Eddie Drake, who each achieved above a .300 batting average. Other returning sophomores, .lim Mitchell, Tony Napier, and John Austin, made valuable contributions to the 1981 frosh-soph team as well. Pitch- er Shawn Mills achieved an E.R.A. of 3.72 for the season, while playing most of the time. Practice and hard work were what brought the girls frosh-soph squad to third place in the S.Y.L. The Novas were coached by new coach Becky Porter, who spent much of her own time working with the team. Leading players included catcher Julie Tillman, pitchers Donna Palato and Libby Welch, and all-around player Karen Langston. Frosh-Soph Baseball Sc SoftbaIlf69

The girls team looked strong with all of last year's starting team returning. Among these were Tricia Rice and Myra Buck who played doubles in the Valley Play- offs. Also returning were seniors Rei High, Mikki Meaglia and Kim Williams, among with juniors Cindy C1981 Most Inspirational Playerj, and Denise Kel- ler. Freshman Dana Clancy proved to 70fTcnnis be a powerful and consistent player. The varsity boy's team, suffering from the loss of Dave Couch, was forced to rebuild. Luckily they were supported by returners Jeff Ross, Tom Richards and Todd Andrews. Newcomer Chris Maas proved to be a very strong player. Practice matches helped coaches to find weak spots and improve on the strong areas. League started with tough matches against South and West. is BOYS VARSITY LEAGUE RECORD NORTH OPPONENT l West l2 7 South 6 4 Bakersfield 9 9 Foothill 4 8 East 5 4 Arvin 9 5 Highland 8 6 West 7 6 South 7 6 Bakersfield 7 l0 Foothill 3 5 East 8 6 Arvin 7 5 Highland 8 WON 4 LOST 10 CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT:'Denisc K ler watches to scc if her forchand will be goo Dashing across the court, Todd Andrews g ready to hit a winner.
