M c D o n a l d u r g e s ! p e o p l e t o v o t e o n i s s u e sDear E ditor,

Why George Bush?

Things aren't as bad as they saythey are. Yes, we have been in aglobal downturn with theeconomy but things are lookingup. Alan Reynolds of the WallStreet Journal reported on the ac-tual current statistics: industrialproduction rose 2.1 percent sinceMay of 1991, manufacturing isup 2.8 percent, exports doubledin the last six years and we are inthe sixth consecutive positivequarter.

A USA Today article recentlypointed out that housing starts are

up dramatically for two months

in a row, the computer industry ishaving a record year, banks arerebounding, and treasury bondyields a re up.

Compa red to J a pan and Eu rope,as some people like J to do, the

New York Times reported that

the United States commands asignificant lead in worker pro-ductivity. Europe's unemploy-

ment rate is above 10% and Japanis in the throes of a stock m arketcrash. (When was Reagan andBush President of Japan or anyEurope nation?

A two and a half year study ofAmerican manufacturing by theCommerce Department showedthat U.S. manufacturing hadtripled during the'1980's and istoday on par with Japan and E u-rope. It also showed thatmanufacturing's share of GNP(gross national product) has re-bounded to the level of outputachieved in the 1960's and the

United States is experiencing anunprecedented export boom.!*By the way, the Bureau of LaborStatistics reported that the per-centage of new jobs in the higherskilled categorieswasmuch larger,in the 1980's than in the 1970's

To me this shows that thesolution is to not throw money ata problem.

There is much more I would liketo write about but time and spacewon't allow for it One thing Iwant to stress is that weas Ameri-cans must stop looking tothe gov-ernment to solve our problemsand start relying on the power ofourselves. The government is theproblem, not the solution J Theonly Presidential "candidate em-phasizing the strength of pe ople,not government, is George Bush.

Please vote, but when you domake sure it is an informed vote.Don't vote for someone becausethey are popular, or because yourfriend is voting for them, or be-cause they are leading in the polls.This doesn'tmean that they mustbe the right choice. Please don'tvote party line, vote for individu-als. Just because your candidateis losing in the polls don't give up

and not show up at the polls...vote.

Sincerely, '

WHAT HAVEY0U6OTONCLINTON'SMOTHER?

Dear Editor,

I consider myself a student whois a full-time studier, (except, ofcourse, for the occasional week-

end party). I Gnd mysel f spending

some quality time in the librarystudying. Even though I am notusing the books in the library, Iseriously respect them because Iam allowed to take them outwhenI want to (with,a library card).How can those students destroy-ing these books, magazines andreference .books respect them-selves? Do they not realize that

other students (like my self) mayat one time need to use the articlethey have mutilated for their own

pleasure? Think about it If youwant the book or magazine thatbad, go out and buy it for your-self!

v *

I seriously respect the concernfor the library and the studentsWho use it. I apologize for thosestudents who do notknow what ittakes tobuy and care for the booksthis school is paying for.

Sincerely Yours,

possible to collaborate'a multi-tude of ideas, even if they are thesame, and express them in "ex-actly"-the same verbiage. TheMerciad is guilty of this.tThe beginning of the article

states that their choice "has beenbrought about by agreeable posi-tions." Even if a unanimous com-mon stance was taken and theywholly believed in precisely ev-ery policy of Clinton, the articledoes contain a faux pas. This mis-take stems from the fact that a

word choice of the column wasnot agreed upon. Unless I'm mis-taken, the Merciad staff did not

huddle around the computer andconfirm each word of each sen-tence. The writing therefore is"individual ized." The lone w riterof the article being the individual.So essentially, who endorsesClinton, the Merciad staff or theauthor of the article?

Gardner:

''Weeding Out f

By Jule GardnerMerciad News Editor

Wait Don't stop reading. It's okay, I'm not going to write aboutthe Mercyhurst radio station. I mean, is it justme, or has all the bloodbeen finally drained out ofthis dead horse? IfI read one more articleabout how great a station is that I can't even listen to although I'mjust a few hundred feet away from the DJ, I might just blow thewhole place up. Kidding. My pen is violent, I'm no t

Seriously, if you look at the masthead it say s "Perspectives." Ithink the space in this column should be given to someone who has

earned the right to give a different p erspective, not someone whowill write about the same ideas another columnist (subliminalmessage: Dave McQuillen) had devoted his column to a few weeksearlier. This is a college newspaper, one of the few places a non-administrative opinion canbe expressed publicly. It is supposed tobe a voice, although it is usually more like a faint whisper, of thestudents. M ost of that hyped-up, unoriginal drivel can be saved forthe admissions catalog. Alright, already. Enough of my personalbeef of the week.

Let's move on to something I know lots o' people care about:BEER. Or, more specifically, our rights that have been usurped bycertainmembers oftheResidence Life staff who act 1 ike the Gestapowhen this four letter word is involved.

Is there a bulldog running loose somewhere? J thought petsweren't allowed on campus, yet there seems to be at least one whoneeds a leash. I

Case in point Let's just say there was an actual party on Friday

night (I know it can be a rightening hought). No one got out ofhand. No one did the Technicolor yawn out the window or ran bucknaked through the quad. The keg was eventually kicked. Everybodyleft to find one that wasn't The party was over, folks.

Along comes a bulldog barking up a dead tree. Have you everheard of "ex post facto?" I know it is a term associated with rightsoutside these cast-iron bars (oh, do I mean gates?) The point is thatit is completely ludicrous to bust and fine someone "after the fact,"but that is exactly w hat happened to some riends of mine. A bulldogcame sniffing long after the beer was depleted and decided to

confiscate an empty k eg and impose a $200 fine. The keg was keptbehind a closed door of a closet and in a plastic bag.

I It hasbeen my understanding that we had some privacy when itcame to search and seizure. It has been my understanding we hadsome rights. Maybe I don't understand, but it is not so easy to gainthat understanding. Here is the handbook. Here is a list of all thenasty sins that you have to pay for. Here is a neat list of all the clubs

on campus. Where is a list of my rights?? ?1 thoug ht m embers of T he Gestapo were not allowed to search

through residents' closets and bags. Obviously, our homes are fairgame when someone comes a-sniffing. Oh, but they aren't ourhomes, they belong to the school. I pay $70 a week so that I can bestripped of my privacy on a suspicion thatl might actually drinkbeerin college.Let's discuss that word: suspicion. Do you see it written anywhere

in the student handbook that being "suspicious" is cause for a write-up? :I know of some people who were threatened with disciplinary

taction because there was"suspicion" of a keg at their place. 1 lookedfor that crime in The Book. All I found was the word "possession."

nt shouldn't be that difficult to understand the difference. I gocollege, I know. 1

Okay, I'll relinquish and soften the blowsI don't hate all membersof the Residence Life Staff. I know that most of the time they are justdoing their jobs. The problem exists when they take their jobs too

seriously. An RA or an RD or whatever some of them call them-selves is not a warden.Oh, lighten up. I don't really think I live in a police state known

as Mercyhurst It has not gone as far as that, but it has gone far

enough.I'm done growing old for this week.I************************************************************

If you remember my last column, I focused on the JFK assassins-Ition and, in particular, Jim Garrison's illuminating theory. Since

then, Jim Garrison has passed away, I only hope that you will notBread one article and walk away. Find out moreso we can be sure the

Arte Entyrtainiiient

Shoe GazingBy David McQuillen

MerciadStaff Columnist

OK . Ski you know what tastes good, and you usually think it tastesgood right rom the first ravenous chow down. Pizza, blue cheesedressing, fiesh pineapple, Doritos, Pepsi, tacos, beer and grandma *sspecial chocolate chip cookies (where, for reasons that even NASAcouldn't explain, the chips stay soft and melted for days after theycome out of the oven ). Oh ye s, your tongue will search out anddevour anything and everything to its liking. 1

You also know what looks good. Yes, pretty tree, pretty sunset,my, what a pretty this and that And if you aren't sure about howattractive the person you are talking to is, you can always haveanother beer and think again. Hm mm...my, how pretty you are.

Now, what sounds good? What are your auditory pizzas andsunsets? What do your ears crave, need, want, lust after? Whetherit's the sound of a cheering crowd, rustling leaves or your lover'swhispers, think about your favorite sound.

How about the people that you hang around with? Do you liketheir voice s? How do they sound? Harsh, smooth, raspy, deep, high,foreign, slurred, crisp, professional or sexy? What do you prefer?How about themusic that you listen to? Listen to the singer's voice

and think about it. Do you like it because it's unusual, common,melodic or so bad that he screams the words and hopes you don'tnotice? %

Unfortunately, most of the voice s in today's music are digitallyaltered, tweaked just s o to sound better and sell more records. Butthere are two artists out there, Harriet Wheeler o f The Sundays andMorrissey, who create better sounds that the Sirens themselves.

Now listen girls, if you want to know what guys wish all girlssounded like, get the new tape by the Sundays, plug it in andlisten...imitate Harriet's voic e and make big strong tough menbreakdown and sob with joy. They'11 do anything for you, I guarantee itHarriet has the kind of voice that is so sweet, so soft, so damnfeminine that even cold, insensitive men w ill drool like Pavlov's

dog after hearing it a few. times.•Perhaps the best thing about her voic e, however, is that she can sayanything and sound good. "Hideous towns, they make me throwup," (a lyric from their first self-titled album) comes out of hermouth smelling like violets and looking like a rose. No one, no one,noone could possibly sing like she does. She changes pitch,tone andvolume so often that her voice is more like an instrument thananything else.The m usic? Oh yeah. T his album is pretty similar to the last one,

with heavy Smiths influence and mellow tempos. This is late nightstudying stuff or early Sunday morning (I know, I know, no punintended) music. Y ou cannot dance to this band; this is for sittingand listening and thinking. If you didn't like their first album, don'tget this one. But if you did like it, then it's definitely worth your

bucks. •.While the Sundays have adopted the sounds of The Smiths,

Morrissey (ex-lead singer of TheSmiths for those of you who don't

knowThe Smiths from the Jo nses)trying to be what he was and started being what he is. The result, analbum titled Your Arsen al, is surprisingly varied, containing ev -erything from hard, fast slammers to slow , morbid, depressing wristslitters. There's eve n a country sounding twanger.Morrissey possesses perhaps the most versatile voice out there. Imean, this guy can make some of the weirdest, whooping, laughing,moaning, droning noises on the planet and then impersonate E lvis.On his past albums, he tended to limit his vocal talents to slow, doursongs, drowning in bis own misery and more than happy to dragyou

N with him. Through it all$however, he keeps an acid sense of humor.Despite a more upbeat approach here, Morrissey's sarcasm and

On "Seasick, Yet Still Docked,* the only real morale killer, hesings, "I am a poor, frcezingly cold soul, sovfar from where Iintended to go." Obvously, he's got a pretty l o * opinion of himself

but he doesnt seem to caie. In "Tomorrow," the fast, catchy closerof the album , Morrissey sings, "All I ask of you.Jswill you put yourarm around me? I won't tell anybody tomorrow. All I ask of you isthat you tell m e that you love m e. And if you don* mean it, well, Iknow ou dontmean it, just tell me that you love me." Hedoesntseem to care too niuch about sincerity. % ~*

Whether lt fi Morrisse/*! new, more*aggressive (but still asdepressing and cynical as ever) sound, or Harriet's perfect voice,these are sounds that no human ear can resist. Give them a try; tryto sing along and then gQ talk to someone. Listen to hWr voice andsee if it is as attractive as their look s.

'BirdsBy late Davidson

Merciad Staff Reporter

Beginning on October 28, theMcrcyhurst College Theatre willbe performing a 2,500 year-oldplay. The Birds is a comedy writ-ten by Aristophames while livingin an ancient Athenian society.Jim Gandolfo (founder of the "InAll Seriousness" Comedy Troop),is directing the play. Igor Stalskywas scheduled to direct but hesaid, "Gandolfo fell in love withthe play," and that it is very wellsuited for him .

All of the actors in the slapstickcomedy are Mercyhurst students.The characters are humans, birdsand gods. This calls for large,

elaborate costum es. Although theplay was written in about 414B.C., it is still meaningful andhilarious. This "freshness" canbe

i

» takes offredited in pari to Walter Kerr,

who wrote this modern adapta-tion.

The play follows the adventuresof a human couple who leave Ath-ens to explore the Kingdom of heBirds. This comedic couple(searching for a better life) isplayed by John Gatto and NicholeBruno. The cast consists mostlyof birds - this is convenient be-cause of the majority of femalesin the play. We can assume thatbirdscanbe easily played by malesor females, even though playsmade in this time were fully male.

You can expect to see an eye-watering comedy which Stalskycalls "Laurel and Hardy inBirdland", but the play does have

some meaning other man laughs.It was originally written to criti-cize the Athenian society andmany of its members. It is por-

trayed symbolically through hu-mans, gods and birds communi-cating and trying to form a perfect

society. The play has directorialfreedom so we m ay see some is-sues which are directly importanttoday.

The stage consists of rocks andis a mere island of scenery. Youshould expect to see special ef-fects and hear our interestingsoundtrack (although it is not amusical). >•

This comedy should not bemissed. It begins on Wednesday,October 28 at 8 p.m. at theMercyhurst Little Theatre andcontinues each following day atthe same time until Sunday, No-vember 1 (last day of show is at

2:30 p.m.). All tickets are $6 andfree to M ercyhurst students withI.D.J For reservations, c all ext.

Halloween is upon us . You bet-terwatch out for a 11 the ghosts andghouls. Actually, watch out forthe dance department. No, youwon't be frightened by them; youshould w atch out for the produc-tion being put on by the dancers

She then got together with LeeWilkins. Wilkins put some musictogetherand presto, Campus Trickor Treat. This Saturday, the danc-ers will be performing in ZurnRecital Hall at 6 and 7 p.m. Fo l-lowing their "comical" perfor-mance, said Laura Blabac, ch il-dren between the ages of four and11 will be trick or treating aroundthe Mercyhurst College campus.Stations wi11 be set up throughoutthe camous. The children will

begin at Zurn and trot around un-til they end up at Weber Hall.

Blabac, a junior dance major,hopes "something like this willgetthe dance department noticed.It is a great idea for promotingsa fe trick or treating for the com-munity.'* It gives both the danceand music departments perform-ing experience; Ina bin and hu-morous way.

This is another effort to promoteawareness o fwhat goes on insidethe gates of Mercyhurst. Blabacsaid, "The show would be en-joyed by all ages." Good luck toall those who entered in the pump-kin carving contest sponsored bythe department. H ave a safe and"comical" Halloween.

By Craig RybczynskiMcrciad Sports Editor I

O Canada, Our home andnative land...Wait. Stop. TheCanadian national anthem in theWorld Series. I must be dream-ing. The Toronto Blue Jays,Canada's Team, defeated theAtlanta Braves four games totwo to capture America's na-tional pastime. J

The victory erased the years of play-off futility suffered by pastJays' teams. This time the word CH OKE plays no part in Toronto'spost season vocabulary. The Atlanta Braves, on the other hand,become the seventh team in play-off history to lose back-to-back

World Championships.The final climatic game was so indicative of a Braves comeback,

that it was hard to fathom the Jays pulling a reversal of fortune. Inthe 4-3/jllth inning victory, the game was highlighted by DaveWinfield's two-run, game winning double. *;

The game looked very reminiscent of the seventh game of theNational League Championship Series when the "Never say die"Braves scored three ninth inning runs to defeat the PittsburghPirates.Once again Francisco Cabrera stepped to the plate, and Georgians,

even Jane Fonda, clutched their hands togethereto bring about divineintervention. Cabrera clubbed a Tom Henke pitch no left field,however, Candy Maldonado robbed Cabrera of a hit with a leapingcatch. The hero role then fell onto Otis Nixon's shoulders. Nixonsingled in Jeff Blauser and the game was tied. Ron Gant then flewout to center fielder Devon White for the final out.

After a scoreless 10th, Winfield stepped up to the plate with two

runners on and two ou t. For Charlie Leibrandt it was deja vu, as h eonce again allowed the game winning hit in the sixth game of theWorld Series. Leibrandt threw a 3-2 pitch to Winfield, which helined dow n the left-field line, scoring both run ners. Why the hellwasn'tTerry Pendleton playing the line? The Jays now led 4-2 goingto the bottom of the 11th. T

When the Braves came up to bat, I still had hope that they wouldpull out another victory. Well, the Braves did stage a valiant lastattempt to win the gam e. The Braves put two on with no ne out andmade the score 4-3 when a run scored on an infield ground out byBrian Hunter. Then with two out and the tying run on third, Nixoncame up. Could he once again tie the game? Not this time. Nixonbunted to the pitcher, Mike Tim lin, who threw to first for the finalout. At that moment, all of Canada went wild, as their team had

finally won the 'big one."When I look back on the series the word CLUTCH sticks out in my

mind. The Blue Jays won all four games by one run. The Braves

twice led the Jays going into!; the ninth, only to see their leadevaporate. Who would have thought Ed Sprague would hit a JeffReardon fastball out for a 5-4 victory in game two, to pullTorontoeven at 1-1? W hat about Candy Maldonado's single off none otherthan Reardon to win game three, 3-2? Not to mention Winfield's h it

On defense, Devon Wh ite's over-the-shoulder catch robbed DavidJustice of an extra base hit and the Braves of a scoring opportunityin game three. The Jays bullpen also kept their team in the game,while their offense got run production wh en they needed it. FormerBraves pitcher Duane Ward was 2-0 out of the bullpen with anearned run average of 0.00. The B raves bullpen faltered under the

duress of play-off pressure (Jeff Reardon).On offensive, each team was led by an unlikely player. For the Blue

Jays catcher Pat Borders hit .450 en route to the World Series MostValuable Player award. For Atlanta, Deion Sanders exhibited thepotential he has if he w ould d evote his talents solely to baseball.Sanders hit .533 for the series and stole five bases.

As I end my column, once again disappointedly the BravesipostscKon loss, I say cong ratulation* to Canada, as they showed

that the Blue Jays and their fans are a cjass act ToToronto s credit,it didn't turn the flying of the Canadian Hag upside down into an

Men's heavyweight eight .finishes in top tenBy Craig R ybczynskiMerciad Sports Editor

The Mercyhurst men's heavy-weight eight finished among the

top ten crews at the Head of th eSchuykill in Philadelphia, PA, on

Saturday, October 24. The Geldof competitors includedGeorgetown University, fYaleUniversity, Temple Universityand the University of Miami. TheHead of the Schuykill served aspreparation for the PrincetonChase the foilowing day, Sunday,

October 25.The David and G oliath scenario

held true to form, as M ercyhursttook on schools twice their sizeand rich in rowing tradition. Ac-cording to women's rower An-,drea Peterson, "We were racingthe top Ivy League crews, and we

did exceptionally well for theamount of rowing we've had to-gether."

With the experience of rowingagainst Ivy League competitorsat the Bausch and Lomb Invita-tional on October 11, the Lakersknew what .-to expect. Thewomen's lightweight eight andheavyweight four rowed the 2.5mile course. According to unoffi-cial results, the eight placed ninthin their pool. The four finished17th against crews that included

Georgetown, Columbia Univer-sity and the University of Michi-

Also, two other men's boats wereentered in the regatta other thanthe heavyweight eight Th e light-

weight eight and heavyweight

four rowed for the Lakers. Unof-ficial ly, the 1 ightweight eight cap-tured 24th place. ?

The results of the heavyweightfour were not made available.However, controversy played arole in their row. The four wasleading an opposing boat when a

passing boat rammed them, push-ing the Mercyhurst boat into thenext lane. Thus, thehead race wasrestarted, and according to rowerKeith Gilbert, the Lakers lost themomentum they had in the earlyrace.After the regatta, the Lakers con-cluded their fall season at thePrinceton Chase in New Jerseyon Sunday. The three mile chasewas held on the Carnegie River.

The lightweight eight finishedthe best of any Mercyhurst crew,finishing 11th out of 20 boats.The top three crews were indica-tive of the competition. Yale fin-ished first, followed by Harvardand Dartmouth. The Lakers fin-ished seven-tenths of a secondbeh nd Columbia.

The other men's crew was theheavyweight eight who placed19th in the chase. The heavy-

weights finished behind the Uni-versity of Virginia in the field of

The lone women's crew was theheavyweight four. The crew fin-ished a third of a second behindthe University of Virginia. How-ever, Mercyhurst finished 17thamong a field of 31. The boatconsisted of Nicole Geraci, An-drea? Peterson, Tricia Lefeuvre,Leanne ^Peters and coxswain

Volleyball team prepares to face GannonBy Craig RybczynskiMerciad Sports Editor

On Tuesday, November 3, the

Mercyhurst women's volleyballteam will host the 18th rankedGannon Golden,Knights at the

Mercyhurst Athletic Center at

7:00 p.m. in a match of schoolrivals. The Golden Knights are

31-1 this year.

When they last met, the Lakerswere defeated at Gannon. Accord-ing to Head Volleyball CoachCraig Davie, the team was youngand inexperienced then.The LadyLakers will use the game as a

learning experience. They face a

team that went to the elite eightlast year and is projected as a finalfour team or even the eventualwinner this year.

With the Gannon game loomingcloser, the Lakers hosted the Flag-ship City Volleyball Invitationalat the Mercyhurst Athletic C enteron Friday, October 23 and Satur-day, October 24. The Lakers fin-ished the tournament 1 -2, defeat-ing Walsh College for their onlywin. I

v With the results of the tourna-ment, the Lakers have won the

• r

last five of eight games after a

slow start. According to coachDavie, the team is young withonly one senior, captain KarenStahl, and one junior, PamMueller. The key to their successhas been the hitting and blockingof outside hitter Amy Baxter and

the d igging and setting ofM ueller.In the tournament, Mcrcyhurst

opened up against Clarion Uni-versity and was swept 15-8,15-4and 15-10. Davie said it was the

best offensive hitting for the Lak-

ers and they also had superbblocking. However, Clarion hadgreat digs defending M ercyhurstspikes.

That same night the Lakers beatWalsh University three games toone (15-2,14-16,15-4and15-9).With the win the Lakers finishedtheir play on Friday eve n at 1-1.The blocking and hitting of

Mercyhursti once again provedpivotal.

pn their final gam e on Saturday,the team lost to the University of

Indianapolis in the speed pointfifth game. Mercyhurst lost the

first two gam es but rallied to takethe next two games. In the lastgame, the Lakers lost 10-15, los-ing the match three games to two.

Karen Stahl Jreminices about Mercyhurst athletic careerBy David J. KosobuckiMerciad Sports Writer

The past is usually hard for

people to forget There is a certaincomfort zone that one tends to getinto when recollecting their pastThe song "It's So Hard to Say

Good- Byeto Yestcrday"by BoyzII Men is about saying good-byeto a relationship. .

Mercyhurst senior Karen Stahlhas had a close relationship withsports as long as she can remem-ber. "Sports has always been a

part of me," she said. "I think I

would feel lost without it" Whenthe volleyball season ends thisfoil, it will also end Slant's ath-letic career.

For, most, it seems heartbreakwould be in line. For Stahl, it

major and hopes to become a phar-macist ?Shc doesn't seem con-cerned about where sh e plans to

live. She just wants to get a job.Stahl is from Latrobc, PA, whereshe attended LatrobcHigh School.She participated in basketball and

track, along with volleyball. Out-side of school, she enjoys swim-ming and running. In contrast,

about working as a team, it helpsme deal with pressure and stress.Sooner or later, it will help medown the road.** J

Karen Stahlshe also plays the piano.

Like most athletes, Stahl has arole-mode0He is^her olderbrother. "He really taught me tounderstand sports," she said. "I

spent much of my time with himplaying. I was sort of a tomboy.One particular issue that female

athletes have to deal with and

myth that m en's sports arc moreimportant than women's. Gameattendance is usually poor. Fi-

nances can also be deficient in

women's sports compared to

men's.Stahl sometimes feels dejected

because she cares so much aboutsports. "Most people don't real-ize that we work as hard as the

guys," she said. "We put a largeamount of. time and effort intopractice and games." In some re-spects, women might deservemore credit than men Think aboutit They play to please themselves,

not someone else. Whyelse wouldthey practice so hard? So that a

handful a people will come and

watch? |Leaving a group is leaving

frie nds . But leaving sports is leav-ing special friends. When youspend one-third of the school yearliving and breathingvolleyball, a

unique bonding takes place withyou and your teammates. You'v ebeen through so many highs andlows together. You've expressedall of these feelings together.

That's what makes sports so spc-cial.

Stahl has mixed feelings aboutthe season ending. There havebeen more disappointments thanjoyous times this season for theteam. "Sometimes," Stahl says infaint voice, "I wish the seasonwould end. But I know I won'tfeel that way when it's over."

Being the senior captain on theteam has been tough on Stahl be -ca use she is the one with the mostexperience. When she is down on

her luck, there is no one older for

her to turn to. The season has

been tough on everyone, but Stahlencourages all her teammates to

play next year. "We're a young

team, and this is a rebuildingyear," she said. "I hope everyonesticks with it next year. If theypractice hard, the team will defi-nitely get better." .rfEveryone must say good-bye to

great memories and friendships.They will be gone but not forgot-ten Try to think ahead about what

the future can hold. It's not the

"End of the Road."
