Well-earned respect The Lady Rebs earned recognition as 0, championship team This year's bas- ketball season was the best. Everyone had the hard work and determination that was needed for the playoffs. We were close in a way that was need- ed, so that when tim e s b e c a m e t o u g h w e all pulled togrther to help each other 0 u t . ' ' K a r r i e Gartner. - Working out for hours a day prac- ticing basketball fundamentals and strategies paid off when the Lady Rebs won the District Championship by overpowering the Lewsville Farm- ers 61-44. However the most challenging part had yet to come as the Lady Rebs traveled on to Midland to meet their competitors from Tascosa. The Lady Rebs made themselves at home as they pulled off the win in the last quarter, 64-56, which en- abled them to continue on to play Duncanville for the Regional Cham- pionship. The game was overall balanced in scoring, each team was prepared to give the other a run for their money. But in the end, fate ran out for the Lady Rebs. Duncanville clinched the Regional title by only one point, 55- 56. This gave the Lady Rebs their second loss of the season. The first loss was to North Mes- quite, 38-46, during district play. These two games were lost to the two top teams in the state, which, left little room for either the team or the Coach Bobby Ray to be discouraged. I'm pleased with the district out- come, but of course our goal each year is to win the state title, said Coach Ray. The five starting players for the Lady Rebs were seniors. Joanne Ben- ton, who received over 100 college offers and awards, was the leader for the area in rebounding. Lana Rutledge was best known for her sixteen footer shot and a member of the District 7-5A first team. Rebel Girls Basketball.

Well-earned respect The Lady Rebs earned recognition deserving as ci championship team Joanne and jenna were the best post players Itve heard of and seen. They helped the team get as far as we did. But they couldn't have done it without Mindie, Missie, and Lana. Without their passing to the inside and their defense, we coudn't have won. We coudn't have gone as far as we did if it wasnyt for the team work- ing as a whole. Karrie Gartner. Design by Karen Laird Jenna Hawkins was known for her balance of the scoring attack. She was a member of the District 7-5A First Team. Mindie Markham was known for her passing ability. She was selected as the best defensive player in Dis- trict 7-5A. Missie Markham was known for her passing ability. She was a mem- ber of the District 7-5A Second Team. These five girls pulled the team up off its feet and kept it going. The other girls on the team could not have done it without their co- operation, which helped to make the team a whole.

The Lady Rebs were the Star Tel- egram's top ranked team during the season. Although they had fallen a point short of the Regional Chapmionship title, their outstanding team unity and dedication proved that the Lady Rebs were worthy of a Championship Team's respect, Karen Laird. Two more points for the Lady Rebs! Lana Rutledge l10J made a shot in the game against L.D. Bell. Photo by Mark Hejnicki,
