Putnam City Central Junior High School - Wildcat Yearbook (Oklahoma City, OK)

A new addition to Central's intramural sports activities was seventh, eighth and ninth grade girls' volleyball. Good eyes, quick feet, superb coordination and fast reflexes were essentials for success. Highlighting the year was the seventh grade vs. faculty game. Strenuously keeping the ball moving, faculty toppled the All-Star team with a score of 44-33. In January the three teams traveled to Hefner Jr. High and slaughtered the Vikings in the seventh and ninth grade games. Practice is hard but rewarding for the seventh grade All-Star volleyball team.
