aging record. We had the talent but we couldn't get it togetherf' remarks team member Steven Blaustein. But Coach Voelker comments that the team never gave up-they played each game as if it were their first. What went wrong?is probably the question in your mind. The fault definitely does not lie with Coach Voelker- he has coached RHS's var- sity team for two years, varsity soc- cer at RHS for three years, and JV soccer and track at Milford Mill Sen- ior High. In addition, Coach Voelker played baseball himself for eight - A .fi H . XV it Q, I , . - .15Wf'9f1+,', fp f arf' ' ,124-r?'f ,, .. -' ' W' ww. - f f 'icc 11-mf 2.

He enjoys coaching and quickly accepted Mr. Higgins' offer to coach at Randallstown. Was it the team 's fault?Not really, although the team was weak in some key areas.-Coach Voelker states that there is definitely potential for the future, however. Coach Voelker had a difficult time selecting outstanding players: Base- ball is a team game so you can't real- ly single out certain players. Some key players who will be returning l -ms. is xxx..

All other players are equally commended for their stam- ina, endurance, enthusiasm and spir- it. The reason for the team's downfall will remain a mystery, but neverthe- less the team stayed interested and determined throughout the year. As Steven Blaustein concludes, the team as a whole stuck together and never gave up until the last pitch was thrown.

I enjoy being part of a team work- ing together for a common goal, says one team member. She adds that this sense of belonging uplifts her spirit and helps her game. Sue LaHatte, JV coach, agrees. She is dedicated to coaching because it's a nice change of pace in the spring, a diversion from teaching English. Coach LaHatte feels that dedica- tion is the preeminent reason for the team's outstanding record. Because many girls previously played softball together in the Liberty Road league, they already knew the fundamentals. As a result, they were able to concen- trate on developing team spirit and unity while acquiring more sophisti- cated skills. Coach LaHatte has difficulty de- ciding the seasons's most memorable moment- We had a real good time all year. She does, however, point out that in a game against Lans- downe, the JV team was losing 5-0 but came back in the last inning to win. Also, the JV team shut out one of its toughest opponents, Perry Hall. These dedicated JV players will move on to varsity next year. They'll certainly be worth watching. 4Varsity player Gina Scott excells as a e fielder, catcher and hitter. VARSITY SOFTBALL Front row: Jody Nu- sholtz, Pam Price, Patti Anvari.
