2014 Winter Season Recap<br />

The winter season was highlighted with the return of the Girls<br />

Varsity basketball team as well as the Varsity Dance team’s<br />

return to the Pit. The girls basketball team, led by first team allstate<br />

Kalei Yepa ’15, tied the school record for victories with 19.<br />

Receiving a 6th seed for the state tournament, the girls defeated<br />

Silver City before falling to Shiprock in the quarterfinals. Kalei<br />

set a total 9 school records. She and Madie Trainor ’17 were<br />

selected to the All-District team as well. Kalei was selected<br />

to the North All-Star team in a game to be played later this<br />

summer.<br />

The Boys Varsity basketball team struggled throughout most<br />

of the season and came up short in the district tournament.<br />

Dustin Gaddis ’16 and Will Lucero ’16 made the All-District<br />

team.<br />

Several records were set by the swim teams including the girls<br />

200 yard relay. Louisa McNaughton, ’16, Yana Apostalon, ’15,<br />

Amanda Custer, ’15 and Morgan Crotta, ’17, swam a 1:44.56<br />

time that eclipsed the record set in 2003. Crotta also set the<br />

50 free record of 25.45 seconds and Amanda Custer broke<br />

her own record in the 100 yard butterfly with a time of 58.98.<br />

schools while the boys finished 2nd in that category. Seniors<br />

The Dance Team performed exceedingly well before a large<br />

crowd at the Pit and finished 3rd for the 4th time in 5 years.<br />

The Bowling team finished in 3rd place at State for the 4th<br />

consecutive year. The team was led by Brittany Holden-<br />

Rhodes, ’17 who had the high game and the high series in the<br />

All-State team and this year Alexandria Ragsdale, ’16 and<br />

Yanru Wang, ’17 were selected to the All-State team as well.<br />
