Ir'there were all those people sitting on the bench, they would start to feel bad about themselves and maybe even start bad mouthing the team which would bring everyone down. Most people agree that mak' ing the cut was hard on some, but that in the end it was the best thing for the team. ul think it was cut pretty fairly but it must have heen hard because everyone was pretty equal, junior Amy Barker sard. Another difficult aspect of the cut was losing the mutual hand of basketball in friendships. I think I was more upset than a friend of mine who got cut because she had stuck with basketball for so long and was such a good friend of mine, Amy said. As players got older. there were more players competing for a set number of positions. uThere's more pressure when youire a sophomore because there are freshman below you and juniors and seniors above you which means there is more competition for your position, sophomore Mashaan Woomer said.

The rain was usually the most frequent factor in cancelling prac' tice sessions. While thunder and lightning did not make things any easier for the swimmers, neither did the extremely cold winter weather. The worst was probably during Christmas break Ice would form TO THE OTHER SIDE. Sophty more Holly Reese races in the individual hutterflv heat in hopes of qualifving for the finals. IN HOT WATER. Senior Grant Shelton finishes with his fastest time of the season at the Georgetown meet. The Georgetown pool was kept at a higher tem- perature than the team was used to swim- ming in. cold weather on the steps and you would slide down them, senior Jeff Astbury said. During the winter months the steps were rarely free from ice yet the team endured despite the cold feet and occasional accidents. HThe only bad aspect of the pool itself was that it was heated. Ifyou have ever swum in a heated pool and then stepped into 10 or 12 de' gree weather, itls like sunbathing in Antartica, left said Even though the weather was not always to the liking of the team, the practices resulted in the district state championship title. 46 ON RECORD Team members' times are written down by team manager senior Cindy Copeland at the Georgetown Invitae tional.
