A season that was small in production and big on heart. Plagued by injuries and the loss of a brilliant sophomore, Steve Rec- zek, to the varsity team, the junior varsity Cougar baseball team had its problems. The boys baseball program involves long hours of practice and many extra games, even in the summer. The team also had several junior varsity players who rotated from junior varsity to varsity, this also, hindered the progress of the team but the shining, however for this junior varsity team was, as it is in the cases of many other junior varsity teams, the show of promise for the future. The freshmen had to be full of talent, drive and enthusiasm and a love for the game because it takes a lot of talent and work without the support that other major events receive. Freshmen receive their talent from such players as outfielder John Wiles whose power and size allowed him to hold his own on the team, while another freshman, Brandon Davenport, obviously follows in his fami- ly's footsteps as a talented pitcher. The Junior varsity exists as a farm system for the varsity team, who has solid and tal- ented outlook for future success at Clark.
