Lacks In umbers Q A fewer number of players than ever before made up this year's junior varsity squad. Coach Acosta attributed this to last year's lack of a frosh football program. Since we didn't have a frosh program last year, many of the boys were very inexperienced and in some cases they didn't even know the fundamentals. We had to start everything from scratch, and because the squad had very little playing experience we were really handicapped. Despite these disadvantages the j.v. gridders pulled through with a solid 3-4-1 season record. Coaches Acosta and Bell saw marked improvement as the season progressed and expect outstanding performances in coming years. 1. David Ahnell breaks away from the opposing defender. 2.

1 3 It xx Spikers in Divisionals Q The 1.V. team, coached by Mrs. Robin Ortuno, finished 2nd in the city. The varsity volleyball team, coached by Mrs. Linda Grissom, ended their season with a 7-7 record and for the first time in Sabino's history obtained a play-off berth by beating Buena. Linda Cates '78 offered these thoughts. VISTA: Did your team anticipate a win against Buena? LINDA: In our hearts we knew we could beat Buena but I am sure there were some doubts in the teams mind. I don't think anyone else besides the team thought we could pull the upset. VISTA: What were your thoughts when you beat Buena? LINDA: After losing last year to Buena, it brought alot of excitement to beat them. It was so exciting to be in divisionals especially since this is my last year at Sabino, I am glad we did II. VISTA: How do you think the team came from losing to making it all the way to divisionals? LINDA: Mrs. Grissom kept telling us that we were playing as individuals and not as a team. We tried to improve that. We tried to help each other out, we came together on every point we made and every play that was missed. We worked harder in practices. The most important reason, though, is that we had the desire to win and to prove it to Sabino. 1. Varsity vollefyball team, B. Clements, L. Cates, B. Lloy , N. Meadows, S. Mattson, C.
