Although the girlis track team had a 2 - 5 win - loss record, they competed hard under all conditions throughout the season. With mostly underclassrnen on the team, they look forward to a much improved performance in the next couple of years. The team was led by a new comer to the program, senior transfer Christine Buehler, along with gallant sprinters Linda Morris and Becky Smith. Throughout the season, dependable Christine Buehler brough home a first place in almost every hurdle race she ran. In the end, this paid off with a second place finish at district in the 110 meter hurdles and a trip the the State Meet at Mount Hood Community College. Linda Morris and Becky Smith oftern strengthened the depth of the team by competing in three or four events in every meet.
