Six Wins Spark Enthusiasm The motto of the baseball team this year was give 100070 of what you have. This motto typified the team, since they accomplished four major things. First, the team won 10 games during the season, which is the most victories that a Turner baseball team has had in the four year history of baseball at this school. Secondly, at one point in the season, the team had a six game winning streak which will give teams in the future a record to try and break. Thirdly, the team played a very competitive schedule with mostly 5A schools, including all the Shawnee Mission schools. Our players were able to successfully compete against this high caliber of competition. This will have great benefits for our athletic teams in the future. Finally, this team has continued to play enthusiastically and in a very positive and gentlemanly manner. The team voted Steve Wiseman the l Most Valuable Player and Mike Wilson the Most Inspirational Player. CMr. Mcllvainj Members of the Varsity Baseball team were: lst row: Mike Wilson, Brent Voiles, Mike Gruen, Steve Davidson, Steve Wiseman, Tim Hanners, Ray Geer, Don Lustig, and Wade Fuller. 2nd row: Coach Mcllvain, Bill Harding, Mike Coleman, John Owen, Larry Tharp, Tom Grogan, David Wood, and Coach Dale Graham.

Everyday after school from 3-5 p.m. the Girls' Softball team practiced batting and fielding. Part of batting practice included hot peppers, two people stood 3 feet apart one threw the ball and the other bunted it baclt as quickly as possible. The rainy weather sure didn't help the team, their season record was 8 wins and l0 losses. The first game was to be in February, however, because of the rainy weather the girls didn't play until March 23 and their second game wasn't until the end of April. The team was coached by Ms. Cathy Webb and she was assisted by Mrs. Becky Kraus. Turner sent a team to Regionals, but was defeated 4-2 by Shawnee Mission Northwest. This was only the third year for Girls' Softball and each year it has improved. This is the best record yet, stated Coach Webb. The girls made about 3100.00 by selling stationary. They also held a picnic at Ms. Webb's home. lt was a good and rewarding season, although there were alot of rain-outs, said Susan Giger, junior. l feel that we worlqed together as a team this year. 3l l 6 The Technique Season Delayed by Weather li 'll 41 -Z
