Someone tfetfa Da 7t WANTED — Managers and Scorekeepers REQUIREMENTS — You must have a knowledge of a sport ' s terminology, rules, and scoring: be willing to keep water bottles full and first aid kits on hand; be responsible for athlete equipment; attend afterschool practices, games, and meets; have school spirit and a lot of dedication. On the job training is provided — no experience necessary. HOURS — Vary SALARY — None This job was obviously not an easy one. While an athlete usually specialized in one specific area of his sport, a manager or scorekeeper performed essential tasks in many different areas. They were on the sidelines and behind the action, but such duties were rarely recongnized by the majority of spectators. Despite the lack of iris ' Basketball: Heidi Belcher. Sherrice Holden. Annette Campbell. Kristine raham, Kristin Ruiz. Michelle Barnett recognition, teams rarely had difficulty recruiting volunteer managers and scorekeepers. Girls ' J.V. basketball manager, freshman Annette Campben, said she took the job because, I want to be involved in school activities, and I ' m not very good at basketball, so I manager instead. Early dismissal from sixth period was another reason so many students eagerly volunteered. Girls ' Softball manager and scorekeeper, juniors Amy Hinton and Kendra Reedy, both sixth period chemistry students, agreed that their jobs provided a welcome break from routine lab work. Being a manager or a scorekeeper was sometimes looked at as a learning experience. Boys ' tennis managers, juniors Lauri Matsukiyo, Yu-Chien Kuo, and Kristina Nicotera all played girls ' tennis in the fall, so they were well qualified for the job. We know the rules and scoring because we love tennis and have been playing on the same team since our freshman year. We will also learn by watching the guys play, said Lauri. Above all, managers and stat-keepers were drawn in because they shared in a special sense, the same exciting feeling of the thrill of victory, and agony of defeat that the athletes did. Girls ' varsity basketball manager, sophomore Sherrice Holden said, I get more excited about the game because I ' m closer to the action and more involved with the team. Even though they weren ' t the ones running up and down the field or court, they were contributing to the success of the team in their own way. Football manager junior Yvonne Hernandez said, Cherie Boyde and I felt like part of the team because we got in as much trouble as the guys if we showed up late or forget the water or something. In short, the common interest and involvement in the sport, in most cases, made it easy for the un-hired help to readily be accepted as just one of the guys. Baseball: Jennifer Schrick. Jenni McCue.
