Minding Their P's and Q by Kim Knowles he girls' JV tennis team had a Q10-21 record this year. Like the varsity team they were very strong and determined. They were all proud of the work they did, because they had to move their bodies correctly, as well as watch the ball and focus their minds on it. No mean feat! They kept up their morale and determination with the help of Coach Gary Lostal. He told them as long as they did their best and put their minds into their matches, that that was what counted. Lostal loves working with the girls and teaching them. Their motto was anyone can do anything if they put their minds to it. Q . , ? .

These girls should be recognized for their hard work and determination. Erin Gunnar- son was one such member. She had a winning score percentage of 77.9. Also, Ashley Reynolds came in second with a 69.5 winning percentage. They both had six sweeps each. Hard work evidently pays off. At one of the league games, they showed their determination by winning against Ramona, 28-O. The most supportive player on the girls' varsity tennis team this past year had to be Dana Glaser. Coach Tom Gnibus said, Dana has leadership and exhibits an intense desire to win. For the past two years, Dana has played doubles. She enjoyed the opportunity to meet people. I will miss everyone, she said, and a special thanks to Mr. Gnibusf' Girls' Varsity Tennis

I Don't Wanna! I'm Too Tired! W by Kim Knowles ould you like to run outside in the cold four to five miles a day? Members of the girls' varsity cross- country team had to do it, and all managed to do it without killing themselves. It took hard work and these team members were willing and ready. The girls-worked very hard, long hours before each meet. For most of them it was for their own personal satisfaction. Cross-Country is one of the most individualistic sports and takes strong runners. What was their mot- to? Run, Hurt, Sweat, WIN! I F by Nancy Davis reshman Alyssa VanSchmus was a varsity runner coached by Ken Franklin for the first time. She said, Coach Franklin is easy to talk to and can relate to students. To get ready for a race, I think a lot about it. I get intense. Coach Franklin agrees, She is one of the hardest working girls on the squad. I'm very glad she was on the team. Alyssa, who has a 4.0 G.P.A. thinks cross-country is cool and really loves to run those hills. 80 Boys' and Girls' Varsity Cross-Country VY.
