96 Juniors Out of the I3 girls who played basketball with this year's juniors in 7th grade, there are only two remaining on the team. Out of the six who played in the lOth grade, only two remain. These facts were not meant to imply that the juniors are part of a dying race! These facts were were meant to illustrate the law of sur- vival. No, the other eleven players didn 't die, but their spirit and desire for basketball did. Over the year's, this class has not been the only one to lose players, In the process, the ones who really want to play and really want to work for victory remain. Since this year's team is smaller than usual, there is no question of any individual's loyalty. I Not to mention the added space in the hutj. The two remaining juniors, Kim Dominick and Becca Golsby, plan to be next years two re- maining seniors, With their dedication to the game, next year's team can be nothing less than great.

Our senior players this year are outstanding leaders, talented athletes, and best of all, great people. As thoughts of them leaving after this year come to mind, there's sure to be a few teardrops following. Kay Dick 's dedi- cation, Teresa Howard's determination, Kay Farless' desire to win, and Amy Douglas' lead- ership have all made the team special this year for all the players. Kay Dick, a starter since her sophomore year, was on the all-state team in l982, and Kay was one of the first players ever to receive the Eagle Award as a junior. All four seniors are also active in other sports, such as softball and track. They have all main- tained high grade point averages and some have received academic as well as athletic scholarships. As you can probably guess, Kay, Teresa, Kay and Amy will be missed greatly next year. But, as always, the team will live on and continue to win.

ophomores Freshman are excited because it's their first year in high school! Juniors are excited because next year's their senior year! Seniors are excited because it 's their last year in high school! Sophomores - well, they're right in the mid- dle. But this year, the Sophomores on the team have created their own excitement. When you've got a combination of Casey CasseL .lanKFishQ Davis, Debbie Watts, and Debbie Harrison, you can't help but sit up and take notice. The whole team feels that practice would be dull without them. Two of the five Sophomores are starting this year: Debbie Watts and Kelly Cooper. and when Coach Gore wants good reserves, he looks to the rest. All of the sophomores plan to attend T.H. next year, and continue contributing to the team. This year 's managers are Alice Lynch and San Allen. The team would like to thank them for their help this year and let them know that they are appreciated. Sometimes the manag- ers are overlooked because they don 't appear on the court. But what they do off the court enables the team to operate smoothly, and usually, with no problems. Keeping up with the water bottles, towels, shot charts, medicine kit, basketballs, and scorebooks all at one time is quite a tough job. lt's also the little things that makes a team thankful for a manager. For example, an en- couraging word during a time-out, lifts a play- er's spirit and restores confidence. The man- agers often heb the players out in other ways, too. How many times have you seen the man- ager rush to the dressing room during the pre- game warm-up only to reappear with a pair of shorts one of the players forgot to put on under their warm-ups? Yes, little things count in basketball, and the managers keep things 97 smooth.
