Perfect Practice Makes Perfect (left) Roulyn Wilt power over three Alief Hasting defenders (center) Monica Caldwell nirs it out as Cecilia Trevino prepares to rebound. (right) Gwen Johnson itiws up and over. Every organization has a “big test in its existance. It must prepare itself for the ultimate performance. In or- der for the performance to be top notch” the participants practice every day until the day of reckoning carrying on another REL tradition. For the girls' basketball team “top notch” meant starting in early November. For the boys — summer of '82. Workouts, practice scrimmages, running “horses,” and loads of fun were all a part that lead to REL’s winning basketball season. The girls with an un- defeated regular season went on to prove their excellence by winning their third straight district title and making it to the regional tournament. Included in this spirit of excitement the boys won their first district title in over 20 years making it to the bi-district play-offs. Every year, the Famous Robert E. Lee Band. Briga- diers. cheerleaders, and foot- ball players start early in August practicing for the up- coming football season. Many long and hard hours of practice are spent in the hot sun while most everyone else is at the nearby swimming pool cooling off. When school and football season starts, that does not mean the end of practicing. It means that all of these or- ganizations stay after school and practice sometimes until dark. Following the last touch- down and extra point the REL Ganders move right into the basketball season along with practices getting ready for swimming, track, tennis, and baseball. All of these organizations required long hard practices and a great deal of dedication to carry on the great REL win- ning tradition. (left) Mike William leap off the floor and lay it off the glass.
