Leticia Castro couldn ' t have said it any better, when she stated, To win, stay as a team, improve at each race, concen- trate, and finish what had been start- ed. The girls were very supportive of each other, stated Coach Snetsinger. We didn ' t need a trophy to say we tried hard; we know we did our best. — Leticia Castro She added, Their strongest points were their willingness to work hard and to help each other. Three girls who contributed most were Adriana Ramos, Leticia Castro, and Kjersti Walker. These girls led the varsity and jv teams through competitions. Newport Harbor was the toughest competition, with fourteen girls among the top in the state. Although we weren ' t victorious by placing in league (except Adriana Ra- mos, who placed eighth in j.v. league finals), we were victorious in another way. We reached personal goals and broke personal records from 24:00 minute to 20:00 minute three miles, stated Michelle Champa. Leticia Castro added, We didn ' t need a trophy to say we tried hard; we know we did our best. V A Thinking of the time she wants to beat. Tammy Johnson begins to pick up the pace. Each time she ran.
