Determined To Win Coach Lydia Hopkins led the 1980-'81 Girls' Track Team to a surprising 6-4 record. The track program was so new that the team did not compete with the other members of the region. Instead, local teams such as Batesburg-Leesville, Ridge Spring-Monetta, North Augusta, and Aiken High provided the competition. The team members overcame their inexperience with optimism and determination to produce a successful season. The track team looks to the 1981-'82 season with the hope that added experience will bring future victories.
