1 F11 rw 1 W Starting your freshman year of high school might be a scary experience for some, but girls in freshman basketball and volleyball felt like they had a place. The team was combined of athletes for both Hobby Middle School and Rudder Middle School which gave the girls a chance to learn from each other. The girls also learned a lot from the older girls on the junior var- sity and varsity teams. Coming every day at 7:30, the girls could not help becoming such closely knit friends. The freshman girls volleyball and basketball teams not only made friends and learned a lot, but they had a lot of fun the whole way through. Basketball ended up with twelve wins and six loses and volleyball finished with fourteen wins and six loses. They also participated in NISD and SAISD tour- naments in which they placed high. The success of the teams was not just handed to them. They had to work very hard for it. Ask any of the girlslon the teams and they would tell you that they could have never made it through the practices and hard games without their coaches. Kirby Jackson, IIE ill coach of basketball, and Becky Koop, coach of volleyball, ore the two ladies who put it all together. The coaches taught us so much about sportsmanship and that teamwork was the key to togetherness and success, said freshman Nicole McPeak. With the training the freshmen received this year, the future looks bright for next years junior varsity and varsity teams. The freshman year is really im- portant. It is when all the building of a great athlete begins. I feel that the things I have learned and the experiences that I have had this freshman year will stick with me and help me become a better player through the rest of high school, stated Gen- ny Wood. For the girls and the freshman basketball and volleyball teams, this year was o very impor- tant one for them. A year that will help them through all the sports they play and a year which they just simply will not forget.

lf ow, there is an abundant amount of spirit generated here at Clark, but the real energy behind all of it is our various organizations here on campus. Cougarettes, ROTC, band, student council, and the other clubs utilize the excitement built up at Clark for competitions, sales to raise money for the clubs and the school participation activities such as pep rallies, intramural sports and spirit and fiesta week. The work, effort and time alone put in by the groups show they are a cut above. ln Cougarettes, ROTC and band, hours are spent in preparation for halftime shows during football and basketball season. Many an afternoon, these three groups stayed late after school to perfect their performances. To accomplish their tasks, clubs had to schedule meeting after meeting. Brainstorming sessions were the most important part of adding originality to activities. These organizations surely were a major reason why Clark was a cut above. --Courtney Snell Excited Cougarerres share their enthusiasm while watching Clark and Holmes battle it out on Halloween night, one way for the various clubs on campus to earn money is to ser up a booth during Spirit Week as the Spanish and German clubs have done, ' gDlVlDEPQ
