Sharon Padgett and Joanne Daniels return the spike to a Saint Angela player. A Great Start The volleyball team got off to a great start in their second year of competition. Hindered last year by a lack of experience, the team had a greater number of hopefuls try- out to add to the line-up. The volleyball team, under the coaching of Mrs. Lydia Hopkins, had a talented starting team backed by an experienced group of substitutes. Led by seniors Delphine Jefferson, and Kathy Smith, the team served, set, and spiked to a IO-6 record. Losing only these two fine players, the Volleyball team looks forward to next season when they can put their experience to good use in the hopes of another successful season. Volleyballf l27

How 'Bout Them Dull? No! Not this year. Al- though few of the games were close last year, nothing com- pares to the thrill of an 7-3 sea- son, and a spot in the Confer- ence lV-3A play-off's. The sea- son started off with a loss to Winnsboro, the next seven games were victories! Aiken High, being our next opponent, was leading at the half. With 1:09 left in the third quarter and the score 7-3, Raymond Roundtree took the ball in for six more points. Richard Smith added two extra points with the conversion, giving us the first inter-city rivalry championship. The next game saw us on the road against Ridge Spring - Monetta. After a bad first half, the team regained its compo- sure to beat the Trojans 29-6. Our next opponent was the first conference game - C.A. Johnson, a Columbia power- house. Traveling to Bolden Sta- dium, we whipped C.A. John- son handily, 25-0. A.C. Flora, who beat us by only one point Tho oughb eds! last year, faced a much im- proved team, which the score showed, 26-8. We traveled to Newberry Bulldog territory and assistant coach, Bert Smith, was the hero of this game. He called for a quick kick in the last nine minutes of the game. We won 24-93 our third confer- ence victory. By the Homecom- ing Game we had a 5-1 record. After the excitement had set- tled, and the litter from a-pack- and-a-half-of-Rolaids game had settled, we were on our way L A M ...

We beat Strom Thurmond, 28-O, giving us a place in the Conference play- off's. Batesburg-Leesville, how- ever, put a halt to our quest for our first Conference champion- ship. The game was a tear-jerk- ing 6-7 loss. For a team who was 2-7 one year ago, to turn around and compile an 7-2 sea- son and go to the State play- off's, the only way we can ex- press our pride is to say, Go Thoroughbreds! Aaron Counts and Alvin Lloyd race to catch an A.C. Flora player. Varsity Footballf 129
