Frosh girls prepare for- seasons ahead Although our record was 3 wins and 4 losses, I felt the girls improved throughout the season, stated Coach Bolton. In their game against Lee's Summit and their Victo- ry over St. Mary's, they showed that they had improved their individual skills. As the freshmen move up to Junior Varsity and Varsity, each one should be a great contri- bution to the girls basketball program.

J.V. season successful in terms of experience Kristi Sholle1 Dean, Carol I The J.V. team finished their season with a 4 and 8 Hendon, Vic record. That state isn't too impressive nor does the season seem too successful when you are just look- ing at overall wins and losses. However, if you look at it in terms of experience gained both by player and coach, then this state could be a valuable one. This year was a year that was full of changes. Aggressiveness and hustle were their main concern. Coach Ernest stated, Losing isn't bad T '. . Not learning from the experience is . . .

They were third at the West Central Conference Tournament where Wayne Findley took lst, Max January and Tom DeVille 2nd, and David Russback, Gerry Lawless, Roger Brattin, and Don Lin- inger took 3rd.
