:eff-azz weak P,-ms edication is a key in the underclass- men basket- ball teams. Since the varsity and J.V. have after school p r a c t i c e th e freshman have to get all their work in before school. It means being her everyday at 7:45 a.m. so a full practice can take place. On the oth- er hand the J.V. put in many hours helping the varsi- ty prepare for their difficult A schedule. J.V. Freshmen teams give it The J.V. team had a lot of talent but could not seem to play to- gether. l feel if we play together as a team, and work hard, we can accomplish many things this sea- son, quoted juniore James Barnes. The team came close in most games but could not seem to pull it out. They lost most of their games by a couple of points. The second half of the season found a team who was finally coming together. The scoreboard began to record more wins. 'fWe could be doing a lot better but it is helping their all. us prepare for the years to come, quoted Stewart Strain. The freshman team found out quickly that their schedule was as hard as the rest of the teams. They had trou- ble finding the winning side of the scoreboard but played hard all year. We had a little trouble all year be- cause of all the people out here playing, we had a lot of freshman, said Brian Steward. But as the season pro- gressed the team be- came closer and fin- ished up the season with more than they expected. 5 Q ,lf ' .,.,N , t X may ef ,, E, I I . ,P Xl fa s 75? ft V' ii ' it 'i'tl iff.

' idelines What do you think of the three point shot? lt's great - it gives the long dis- tance shooters a chance to score more points. Tammi Brown l think it's excit- ing. lt can deter- mine a win or a loss by the end of the game. Sonja Smith lt hurt our team more than it helped it, but I like it. Steve Iwaddle I like to shoot the three point shot, but I 'd rather dunk it. Darrin Ward
