Girls Tracksters Win County Tourney The girls track team had an out- standing season, winning the Howard County Tourney and placing third in the Mid-Indiana Conference meet. Coach Shanks said, Each girl did her part, thus contributing more depth to the team. The varsity fin- ished its season with a 6-4 record. Two county records were smashed by fine Taylor performances. Janet Jameson broke the discus record with a throw of 99 -6 . The 800-Meter re- lay team of Judy Ingels, Lisa Barrett, Denise Bolinger, and Jan Sturtz, beat the record with a 1:54.0 clocking. Other great performances came from Cheryl Harmon, Kara Huneck, Ta- shia Johnson, Kristen Sisk. Michelle Tragesser, and Angle Wilson. Coach Shanks thought the key to their successful season was a win- ning attitude they carried from prac- tice to meets. The team also concen- trated on working as a team rather than emphasizing individual events. Judy Ingels finishes her ; by breaking the high jump record. Jan Sturtz comes around the 200-Meter turn to finish first for Taylor. 82 High School Girls ' Track
