Not only must the gymnast have flexibility, stamina, and might, 1 l he must be graceful and rythmic in l - 1 order to perform a wide variety of 1 4 both simple and complex moves. Our gymnasts seemed to have mastered all these skills, as they switched their sea- son to spring in order to compete on a '-If state level with other counties. Past experience accounted for a large ma- jority of these skills because of the many returning letter-vvinners, which included T. G. Braitman, 1974 Boys' lVlost Valuable Player, Steve Brockett, Jon Fichman, Rob Fichman, Rob Tanenbaum, and Lori Leeds, 1974 Girls' MVP. Based on the number of the competitors, Veteran Coach Wayne Bussard believes that both the boys' and the girls' teams are capable of placing as high as the 1974 squad.
