DetenwincttoisDefectt Tolbt Eve Time... ... Was the motto for the 1988 Girls’ Cross Country team. The team had a very successful season, it being only their sec- ond as a team. They enjoyed an undefeated streak until they met Warsaw and only lost to one more team, Plymouth, in the req- ular season. A big change oc cured this year due to construc- tion. The girls’ and boys’ courses both moved to Bonneville Mill Park. This was a much more challenging course having many hills, but the girls proved to themselves and others that they were successful on any course. The Raiders placed third in the NLC meet held at Ox Bow Park, and Lori Miller advanced to se- mistate. When the team was rec- Ognized at the Fall Awards Ban- quet, Lori Miller received the MVP Award. Stacy Huser re- ceived the Mental Attitude Award and Tina Miller was Most Im- provd. Good job, girls! Above right: Here’s our number one run- ner. Yes, it’s Lori Miller!
