The Freshman basketball team had a season that was mainly tor
                                                       gaining experience.  The A-team with extra practices only had three wins.
                                                       Coach Vicki Austin said, “ The more we practice, the better we can get.  It may
                                                      not happen overnight or in a season, but it will happen. We will be 500 or more
                                                      in a season.” You go girls.  The freshman B-team, on the other hand, was made
                                                      up of seven unique but very important freshmen.  They had an outstanding way
                                                     of coming together as a team in their games but not always during practice.
                                                     They also possessed the desire to play and were constantly pushing themselves
                                                      to play harder and better. Coach Parizek said, “In my mind the team in the end
                                                       finished as champions because they never went down without a fight.  And that
                                                       is how I’ll remember them all—as CHAMPIONS!!!”  H ere’s what freshman
                                                        Katie Phillips had to remark about the season:
