Of course rhe first week together in Florida always offers memories as 12 aquaintances board a van and 1 week later return a ream. From the hot, white sands of Pensacola, we returned to the cold white snow of Cleveland (in April)! After 2 weeks of cancellations due to weather, we played our season opener in- doors and were promptly caught in a blizzard unable to return home.From there,our season progressed normally, though filled with many unforgetoble hours spent together as a ream of friends. Districts closed our year on a rather disappointing note,for we were unable to pull our talent together for a victory. Although this was a rough farewell to our 4 seniors, it has proved to be a motivating factor to rhe return- ing members in their hopes for next year's ream. Our deepest appreciation must go to our godly, caring coach's example, Dr. Pam Diehl, whose leadership challenged us to reach per- sonal potentials on and off rhe court and to learn from winning as well as losing. Thus, we reflect on a successful ream regardless of its season record. Amy DeCook
