Up To Bat For A Winning Season We've got a young team, but they're enthusiastic, commented Coach Don Kelcourse about the attitude of the JV baseball team. He projected that the team would have a better than 50-50 season. He went on to state that the team had nine freshmen, five more than those who came out last year. This could have been a factor in the start, said Coach Kelcourse, However, they were a scrappy group. The key players for the team were freshman Chris Corder, as catcher, freshman Alan Sattler as shortstop, and Randy Barnes as pitcher. Pitching was where we hurt the most, inserted Coach Kelcourse. Although Randy Barnes was only a sophomore, he was the veteran in the pitching position. The only possibility of winning key games such as Highland Park and North Garland hinged on the improvement of the freshmen. What I liked most was the coachability of the team. They listened to you and gave 100W con- fidence in your instructions. Other members of the team include Steve Arenas, Jeff Clewis, Shawn Green, Kevin Lay, Chris Tedford, Scott Woodley, George Garza, Kevin Johnston, Darrin Berlot, Tim Duckworth, Brig Thompson, Scott George, Jeff Bowman, Mark Lenior, and Scott Allan. tices before a big game.

Hittin The Homers The 1982 Colonels varsity team com- Jeted for the district title behind many experienced players such as Seniors Vlax Ables and Jackie Green and Juniors Gerald Jimmy and Brian Green. The team also had several sophomore and freshman newcomers. Under Coach Gino Tamez, the Col- Jnels combined a number of important iacets of the game such as good pit- zhing, solid defense, and powerful hit- ting to produce a team which played an exciting, original brand of baseball and l hich also won many ballgames for outh Garland. . The Colonels began their season by oarticipating in several tournaments in Texas. Although South Garland did not take first place in any of these events, they did demonstrate that they are a competitive, never-say-die team. the Jesuit Invitational, one of the tournaments in which the Colonels SG battled their way into the game, finally losing to the school by a final tally of 4-8. ohnston catches the ball during a The team also played well in the New Braunfels Invitational Tournament. Beginning on a sour note, the Colonels dropped a 6-9 decision to the number one fat that timej ranked team in the state, Houston Spring Woods. Despite this disappointing loss, the Colonels bounced right back and were victorious in their next two games. In the game against Temple, another highly regarded team, Jeff Johnson was the winning pitcher. Against Alamo Heights in the consolation champion- ship, Chuck Cernosek obtained the victory. After all the tournaments were finally completed, South Garland began district play. The Colonels started off in the right direction with an 8-7 win over cross- town rival, the Lakeview Patriots. Then, they lost to the Highland Park Scots. South Garland resumed their winning ways and finished with an above .500 record, but did not capture the district title.
