Iunior Denise Martini, a perennial team standout, is a picture of style, -0.1 Gymnastics is more fun with a friend. Strength and grace Due to the financial situation of the school system, there almost wasn't a gymnastic team this year at Reserve. But through the determined efforts of the girls and the cooperation of the Y.W.C.A., a new concept in Warren athletics was begun. Reserve and Har- ding shared the some facilities and coach fill Thompson for practice and competition, while still competing against each other as cross-town ri- vals. The 1981-82 Reserve gymnastics team was led by juniors Sue Leonard and Denise Martini, who combined for a total of 33 ribbons in their 5 meets. Sophomores Penny Lilley and Ienny Smith and freshmen Michelle Licavoli and Ronna Means rounded out the squad, which was highly re- garded as one of the most graceful, poised, yet strong teams at Reserve. At the conclusion of their season, three girls, Sue Leonard, Denise Mar- tini, and Ienny Smith well represent- ed Reserve at sectionals. Gymnastics!123
