"Shauna was the heart and soul of our team," trackster Ketty Jensen said. "Whenever we needed something done , she was the first person we turned to - and what's more, she never let us down. Obviously, she was the reason we were able to do as well as we did this season." Coach Bryan Phillips said the team's showing was also based on the efforts of the other team n1embers , who practiced long hours. "Shauna was a great athlete, but the reason for our success was that we had several strong events," Phillips said. Penny Mayberry surprised Coach Phillips with her stellar high-jump skills. "Mayberry performed well above what was expected," Phillips said. "Of course, now we know what to expect from her in the future ," he added. Mayberry was the AIC conference champion in the high jump, and placed fourth in national competition. Jensen also came in strong for the team, placing second in the 1500-meter, 800-meter and 3000meter. Phillips said of the '93 season, "The women performed as well as could be expected." - Bart Blasengame '')'SEASON AT A ,,GLANCE Kim Burch twists narrowly over the bar as shecompletesasuccessful highjump.
