Young Athletes Dominate by: Regina Harrison This year's track team was dominated by new coming athletes. There were only seven returning Iettermen to the Varsity team. Even though we are small and young, we still have a lot of potential, said head coach, Phil Webb. This year's girls team showed an outstanding improve- ment in all field and running events with only seven girls, Out of the seven girls, there were three key horses, who were the only three returnees, Regina Harrison, Yvonne Beals, and Katrina Norwood dominated the 400 yard dash. We worked hard and put in our all in everything we did. That is why we should make it to the State meet like last year, said Norwood. As for the boys, who mostly consisted of new athletes, they also showed ability in field and track events. This year's Varsity team contained a freshman, Luciano Cobiseno, who showed great technique and strength as soon as he took his first step on the track, said Assistant coach, Leonard Shaw. Billy Forrest and Bobby White also showed great strength. All in all, this year's track team was a well-rounded group that proved to themselves that they can accomplish any goals. ff , if 1 4' M45 -F gggo ,.,.., 3 3' ' 'Va 3-fig-arf '7,1w ' W WN- ly., B lf-'ff' , , , 5, if , Ab,,4,,,a.4-4-ff., WH , ' 4 A 5, 'y,Zf',w A
