The girls' season was a rebuilding one. There were five Freshmen, but no seniors on the team. The girls went winless, but with the talent of such players as Angela Hyde, with a .750 batting average and the leader in stolen bases, the girls' team can do nothing but get better. We wish the best of luck to both the baseball and softball in their upcoming season. 'Ju' ff f' -'1 ,FZ .
