Thomas said, Lisa could play well at any posi- tion I put her at. Satomi Fukudome, JV team captain, was the most intense player and best thinker, according to Thomas. Mrs Thomas made prac- tices fun, but we still got a lot of hard work done, said sophomore Cindrich. What- ever it was that made JV Volleyball a strong team, an- other great year was accom- plished. As for the FroshfSoph team, they proved that a lot of hard work pays off by tak- ing first in league.

Th I ff lose calls - the end of the Boys 5fl?i'Yf3Ff Cross Country season was full of them. First there were the last two dual meets. After a two-point victory the week before, the squad need- ed one more win, against Los Altos, to be able to run for the championships in the league finals. The result was a squeaker - a one point win for the Mustangs. Then there were the league finals themselves. Despite the fact that WHS runners Gustavo Bento and Coby Polite finished one-two, the result was a tie with Los Al- tos. A tie-breaker decided the official finish - Los Al- tos, first, Walnut, second. In spite of a poor showing in CIF prelims, Coach Jim Polite was happy with his young team's performance. This was a very inexperi- enced team, with only one senior fBentoJ. But they were able to do what was necessary to Win the key races. We got to champion- ship status by hanging in theref, Bento was the team MVP, Sierra League MVP and, ac- cording to Polite, the top runner in the area. Assistant Coach Victor Kim, Polite and the runners saw themselves as a closely- knit group, content with the experience gained and the friendships developed. Kim summed it up: They're a great bunch! ., af, v, Sports!Boys Cross-Country HEMQEQ ,INTO THE SUN, ,Mag Sean 're' runs down the backl side of the switchbacks.
