Our first softball practice of the season found Ef- teen players, our manager Ann Holt, and our coach Bruce Tyner on the ball Held. We tried hard to suc- cessfully catch the balls hit us by the coach. From this Workout we all found muscles that had long since been forgotten! Due to early setbacks, we found that we definite- ly needed to work harder during our practices as well as at a game. Our increased efforts led us to a victory over Oxford. On a very cold spring day We went to Andover, SOFTBALL PARIS where shivering uncontrollably, We were defeated. This defeat at Andover sparked a rousing victory over our long-time rivals, Woodstock. However, our victorious spirit was short-lived for we ended the season with a loss at Casco. We are glad to say that there was no classical Hrst stringv, but that all the girls enjoyed the fun of the games. This fun and hard work was admin- istered by Coach Tyner Who previous to coaching us had coached Little League Baseball for two years.
