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. And when they are remembered Either laughing in the hut, or working in the 87ml Memories flood our minds, Of how great it was with them , . Z7 Q ,f W ,Q , f -.wwf ,,,-' , ..

l98 -83 Girls Basketball I974, l979, l98Q l98l, l982, , . Why are these years special? What makes them different from any other years in our school histo- ry? Who made them special? Well, even though the whole world isn 't turning their heads most people in the state of Louisiana would crane their necks to see the girls responsible for making these years special by winning one first runner-up, and four state championships. Certainly, they did a good job of making winning the name of the game at Trinity Heights by forming the highly respected reputation of our athletic program as one of the best in the state. You may ask yourself who led these girls down the long, hard road of success? Who kept them together when the going got rough? Who is still leading today? The man 's name is Merle Gore, who has had a lot of experience when it comes to winning. Since coming to Trinity Heights, Coach Gore and the Lady Eagles have an enviable record of 2l5 wins and 29 losses fprior to the '83 seasonj, which includes 3 straight state championships and a Shreveport-Bossier record winning streak of 84 games. Coach Gore believes in setting high standards for his girls and can often be heard saying, lf you want to be a winner, you have to pay the price . He is joined this year by assistant coach Tony Bone who also hehred to lead this year's football team to the state finals. The girls definitely feel they are getting the benefit of the best program and staff around. They also feel that they can uphold the winning tradition at Trinity Heights.

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.
