The Volleyball teams had a very successful year with a record of fourteen wins and eight losses for Varsity and six wins and six losses for JV which included going to the Skyline Divisionals at Cortez High School. The Varsity team included ten girls while thirteen girls made up the JV team. They had strenuous workouts beginning two weeks be- fore school started in the gym after school from I to 5:30 P.M. The teams did this in order to give themselves endurance, stamina, coordination and talent on their way to the top. The Varsity team defeated St. Mary's, Greenway, Washington, Sunnyslope, Thunderbird, Deer Valley, North High and Central High. The Varsity players started out inexperienced, but as the year pro- gressed, they got better and more experienced. They worked out hard and they did it. This is the team I am most proud of, said Coach Terri Smith. The volleyball team planned many fundraisers to raise enough money for their banquet, awards and an out of town trip. In October, the girls planned a rummage sale and a banana split eating contest at Dairy Queen. 3' V- 1 ,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,.,, a,,..,....w ,Z-N V

During a brief timeout, Coach Farrell plans their strategy. Ron DaLessio heads down court after Prescott steals the ball. Jeff Lime, senior, shoots a free throw against Washington. The Varsity Basketball team was ranked second in Skyline B league and their final record was 9-3. lt was a successful season be- cause the players overall played up to or above their capabilities, said Coach Bill Farrell. This success was led by seniors Carmine Lombardi, Tim O'Connor, and Jeff Lime. There was a record set by Jeff Lime, senior co-captain, which set the shooting percentage from the field, and the team record was set against Cortez, allowing them 28 points. All of their hard work paid off because some of the players re- ceived honors. Jeff Lime and Tim O'Connor were voted All-League second team and Ron DaLessio, Angelo Accomazzo and Darryl Van Alstine were voted All-League Hon- orable Mention. The Varsity Basketball team played some very close games. When they played Prescott, they beat them by two points twice, beat Greenway by one point once in overtime and the other in double overtime, and beat Thunderbird by one point. This year's basketball team played better during the latter half of league play and last year's team played better earlier in the year because this year's team is youn- ger, said Coach Farrell. I25
