In their first season, ranking as high as 5th, they posted an impressive 16-5 winning record. Coach Bob Ballard explained, I was satisfied in the development of the girls as players, athletes, human beings and in the season record. With most successful teams, a degree of cooperation is essential but no lack of cooperation could be seen in this group. This particular group became friends and family. Everyone understood their roles and did a good job working with each other,' complimented Coach Ballard. Tami Baenzi- ger added, We cooperated well together, especially since all of us had not played together. The cooperation, with the help of talented coaches, lead the girls to a 2nd place finish in the Mississippi Eight Conference and a showing in the districts until they lost a close game to Assumption in the second round. The most unique part of the season came when Coach Ballard missed two weeks due to illness, putting Assistant Coach Baker in charge, who managed to keep the team together. Kelly Kundel said, We accepted her as a Head Coach and I think she did a good job taking over a Head Coach job. As the first year team, these girls established a foundation for future years, a foundation that could lead to a continued successful girls' basketball program for the future of NHS. 411' K Senior night was a special night for Sue 7 Hatfield as she presents her parents with X a Carnation.
