V's Complete Tough Season Winning makes it easy to be full of spirit and pride, but when the going is tough and the enthusiasm remains, that is true spirit. This atti- tude was clearly shown by the JV baseball team this year. Even with- out a winning season, Don Stringer and Dan Ducharme still connected often for some fine hitting. Their momentum picked up near the sea- son's end as the JV's won four of their last six games. Determination and spirit were their greatest assets, and they're sure to be domi- nant in the future.

But they were not an average ball club. The four games they lost were by,a total of four runs. The freshman bats were hot this year as they slugged out 65 runs to their opponents' lowly 30 runs. Coach Rolak looks forward to seeing these freshmen progress to become varsity stars of the future. After a long, hard season of diffi- cult practices and tough games, Coach Rolak says, Thanks, Gloria.
