istrict was finally here and both teams were ready for it. The compe- tion this year was bet- ween Richland, Bell, Trinity, and Haltom. The girls came home with second place and a score of 214.15. The boys came home with first and a score of 312.75. For both the girls and boys there was no pro- blem achieving these high scores. Even though the team went through the District meet with one member ill and another out because of a back injury, they were sure that ceived third in the all-around. During a break before State, the workouts became harder and everyone strove for perfection. Everyone was ready when it came time to leave for Odessa. Every dis- mount is the best you can ask for and every Straddle L is as straight and steady as it could ever be. Many of the members place high in the rankings. Lisa Woody tied for fifth on all- around, scoring a 71.80. Kim Thrasher defended her State all- around title defeating Lisa Swanson of Bell. She scored 74.90 to Lisa's Kim Thrasher and Todd Stephens would return to compete in the Regional meet and sure enough they did. This raised the spirit of the team tremendously. Kim's walking pneaumonia seemed to be gone com- pletly. She won every event and cruised to the all-around title with 75.65 points. Todd didn't let his back injury both him, he also won the all- around cate ory with a score of 107.95. Randall Goodwin also re- 1 if 74.60. Todd Stephens once again cap- tured the all-around title scoring a 109.50. The team wasn't disappointed when they didn't get first place, because they still came home with se- cond, along with many other awards. The boys scored 325.35 and the girls scored 215.10. We were very proud of both our teams this year. Brandi Owens E W L . 3 4 Q Q Design by Brandi Owens.
