Volleyball . . . Yes we will ' HTogether, Yes We Will was the inspirational motto used for the 1988-1989 girls' volleyball team. First year coach, Darla Edwards, brought a lot of inspiration to the team. Al- though the 2-20 record may not appear to show much effort, the Lady Warriors worked well together. Returning lettermen were seniors Jennifer Pn'tchard, middle hitterrblocker, and Sandy Stoltz, outside hit- terrblocker. Four out of the 10 members of the team were seniors. Unfortunate- ly, they had only one year to experience the great coaching of Coach Ed- wards. Commenting on the War- tTOPt VARSITY VOLLEYBALL: tFront Row K. Bass, J. Johnson, J. Coleman, J.

Unfortunately, Harrison lost its first match of sec- tionals to top-ranked Mater Dei. The Warriors did not give up without a fight though. Senior Sandy Stoltz said, 8We had a great season es- pecially considering there were only two returning let- termen. hThis season has been hard on all involved, ath- letes, school, parents, and myself. It is nice to have one under the belt to start improving for the future. I'm really excited to get things going for next fall be- cause this season was so encouraging, stated Coach Edwards.

Not only were the boys successful in the regular season, but in their touma- ments as well. They cap- tured the city, sectional, re- gional, and SlAC titles. They placed third in the Jasper Invitational. The In- vitational consisted of sev- en other teams. Harrison was ranked nineteenth going into the state tournament, but were beaten at semi-state by 18 Boys' Tennis Floyd Central. Harrison lost 5-2. Carl Underwood, top seeded player stated, This year has been the best year the varsity team has ever had. For Mr. Cox, it was his first year being coach for the boys' tennis team, and he was real proud of the outcome of the season. The varsity team will lose only two seniors, Chris Vowells and Veit Heller, the second and third seeded players. The varsity team were not the only ones who ended their season successfully. The reserve team finished their year undefeated. llThey had a real good sea- son this yearX' stated Coach Cox.
