Pate was out with a deeply bruised ankle. Trace Warren and Kenny Davis were injured off of the baseball fields. Trace sprained his ankle during a volley- ball game and was out for one game. Kenny cracked his left elbow during a basketball game and was out for three weeks. All three players came back from their injuries in great shape and contin- ued to play well. The good overall health of the team was a factor in the Hawks' season. The Hawks' district games were tough: each team had to be played twice. First baseman Trace Warren said he thought the Hawks' district 15-5A is, one of, if not THE hardest districts in the state. Coach Burks expected his team to be, ucompetitive every time they Sponsor STATE FARM INSURANCE Ron Morrow, Agent play. He also felt that even though the Hawks weren't usually a favorite, they had, as good a chance as anybody. Another factor in the Hawks' season was the tremendous amount of spirit the team had. The dugout was never quiet: each team member had his ovm special saying or noise. From Trace Warren's, come on, baby, come on, what do you say to Kenny Davis' James Brovm yell, the Hawks kept their spirit up. Senior Van Morris expected the Hawks to Uplay well and have a lot of team spirit and pride. The Hawks al- ways showed their pride and spirit. Loyal fans also showed their pride and sup- port by attending the games and helping keep the team's spirit up. There was nev- er a dull moment at any of the games.
