Feminine Footwork Runners to your marks. Get set. Go! With these words from the starter, this year ' s UCHS Girls ' Track Team got off to a great beginning. I know that some of the individuals from the team will even make GIF championships, exclaimed runner, Tosha Delaca. With all of their hard training, they deserve it! Tosha added. The UCHS Girls Track Team worked strenuously everyday. Increasing their speed, improving their form and building up endur- ance were three key goals the girls set for them- selves. Aside from training, a team needs to feel like a team to be a team, stated long jumper Lynn Bremner. I think we have a really outstanding team this year because no matter how we do, we always have each others ' support. The endless effort the girls put into training was evident especially by the achievements of girls like Monique Weaver and Lynn Bremner. Monique set school records in 100 meter and 200 meter sprints as well as m the 400 meter relay with times of 12.2, 26.3, and 51.0 seconds. Lynn Bremner ' s talent lay in the long jump where she beat her own record from the year before with a length of 18 ' 1 . Whether in hurdling, shotputting, sprinting, relay- ing or high jumping, the girls track team of ' 84 gave it their all. Tina Robinson, Andnda Turner, Monique Weaver, Shirl Washington - U.C.
