Realistically we can do it,” was the statement made by Madras High School girl’s basketball coach, Bonnie Souers. Souers said, “We’re going to be slow to get there but we’ll give it our best right up to the end.” Placing 2 and 3 in the Greater Oregon League the girl’s varsity team is still aiming for first. It’s a “dog fight” says Souers, “Everyone’s wins and losses are about the same. We’r.e half way through the season and there’s still an opportunity for the Madras team to come out on top.” Friday, January 23 Madras played Burns which Souers feels is the best team in the league. They tied and the Madras team lost in overtime by five points. Souers says, “There’s no way we should have lost.” The reason for the losses coach Souers feels is because of free throws. She finds that to be the team’s weakest point. All The third annual Mini- Marathon “will be bigger and better" according to Simnasho school teacher and. director of the run. Rich Little. Everything is falling into place with little difficulty this year. M ini-M arathon activities will begin Friday March 6 at Kah-Nee-Ta with a running clinic. Another running clinic will be held on the morning of the run. The three runs will begin at 1:00 p.m. The distances are 14.5 miles six miles and three miles. Registration for all three races is $5.00. and $7.00 after February 28 deadline. All runners will receive an identification number, a third a n n u a l S im n a s h o M in i- Marathon T-shirt, a swim pass to the Kah-Nee-Ta village pool, a drawing ticket towards a chance at a variety of prizes and the games that have been lost have been lost within 3 to 5 points on account of poor free throws. Another problem with the girl’s varsity team is getting everyone to play together. Only two girls on the team have the playing experience and “it really shows,” says Souers. Slowly they v e gaining the court aw areness and the shooting experience, she feels. The team turned around and won the last two games they played against Culver and Nyssa with a 12 and 22 point lead. The game against Vale coming up on ■ February 6 is important because Vale is number one at this point in the league along with Burns both having 4 wins to 1 loss. “W hat’s really helping us,” says Souers, “is playing the freshmen boys. Hopefully this practice will give us the edge, and will compensate for the lack of playing experience.” The Madras High girl’s basketball team has the advantage of having the two biggest' girls in the league. Theresa Chandler is 6 feet tall and fifteen year old Karen Linder is 6'1". The team consists of five seniors, two juniors and one freshman. Coach Souers says with enthusiasm, “They give 150% all the time. They are working hard at being a team.” The girFs freshman team remains undefeated at this time. “Next year we will have a young team. It’s exciting because they’ll be playing I basketball for three years,” commented Souers. Another interesting point is that all but two players on the freshman team are Indian. All the girl’s varsity games have been down to the wire so far said Souers, “The people are getting their money’s worth. If people followed us they would see a great deal of improvement. The girls have come to know and play organized basketball. They are a great bunch of girls that really give.” three tokens for the Pi-Ume- Sha game room.
