Our girls are at HOME on the track The 1983 girls' track and field team was a group of strong-willed individ- uals determined to do their best in ev- ery event. Such individuals as Pam Horton, Car- ol Feree, Daphne Ferster, Joanne Kahler, Biz Rebuck, and Wendy Shipe were excellent scorers in their events, averaging at least five points per meet. Also, Randi Kunkel did an outstanding job in the long and high jumps and also captured a District Championship throwing the javelin. The teams' major problem is that of having only a handful of members with which to work. Some of the girls on the team were running three and four events in one meet, which is not only tiring but very strenu- ous. The girls practice every day from 3:30 until 5:30. The practice consists of a warm up, which is a short run-, exer- cises; stretching; running for a long dis- tance run, which varies for each indi- vidual event; and finally, practice on the events themselves. Every other day the girls run intervals, timed sprints around the track. The girls' track team works very hard to build endurance for the meets. What they really need in future years, according to Daphne Ferster, is ... more girls out for the sport. We need a larger team, and more strength behind each and every event. 16 — Girls’ Track (Upper left) Soaring through the air, Randi Kunkel displays her talents in a great long jump.
