Veteran's Administration offers financial assistance to students

By John Castro About 900 militarily involved students are benefiting from the Veterans Administration.

"Students can get a good education for serving, having served or being related to someone who has served our country," according to Judy Duncan, veterans education coordinator.

"The VA's objective is to serve the veteran and to administer government laws."

This administration has four different programs. Students are enrolled in a program designed for their needs.

The first program is the "Old G.I. Bill." It covers students who are serving or are retired from the service.

The second program is the Veterans Educational Assistance Program (VEAP) or the "New G.I. Bill." This bill took effect in 1977 and was built originally as a recruitment tool. Students contributing money into the program could receive increased funds toward further education.

Another program deals with the financially dependent. Students whose parents or spouse died in action receive financial support in order to cope with living standards.

The last VA program is Vocational Rehabilitation. This is for the student who was injured physically or mentally from active duty.

"There are just a handful of people in this program," says Duncan. "The m~ority of the students are enrolled

in the "Old G.l. Bill."

Evening supervisor Mary Tennant explains briefly what Duncan's and her job is in the VA. "We act as a liaison between the veterans and the VA. We advise them and give them information by putting out a newsletter."

Up to November 2 veterans interested in attending SDSU can schedule an hour long appointment with a counselor at the University Advising Center located at the campus labratoryschool building at SDSU to discuss his or her

educational plans at SDSU. Veterans coming to the UAC for this purpose must bring with them the customary referral slip and all college transcripts.

Appointments can be scheduled by phoning Jeri Smithson at 265-6698 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday (except for her lunch period from 12 to 12:30 p.m.).

Anyone feeling qualified for the VA's programs can contact Duncan in A-39, Ext. 2173, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (except for her lunch period from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.).

Truman scholarship available Sophomores interested in a career in government service at the federal, state, or local levels are invited to apply for a 1985 Harry S. Truman Scholarship.

Established in Congress in 1975, the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation operates a continuing educational scholarship program designed to provide opportunities for outstanding U.S. students with potential leadership ability to prepare for careers in government service.

In April 1985, the foundation will award 105 scholarships nationally. The deadline for all 1985 applications is December 1, 1984.

Palomar College can nominate two students for the 1985 competition.

The scholarship award covers eligible

expenses up to $5,000 per year for the junior year, the senior year, and two years of graduate study.

To be eligible, students must be fulltime sophomores working toward or planning to pursue a baccalaureate program, have a 'B' average or equivalent, stand in the upper fourth of the class, and be a U.S. citizen or U.S. national heading toward a career in government.

Interested students should submit a letter of application, a statement of career plans, a list of past publicservice activities or other leadership positions, a current transcript, and a 600 word essay discussing a public policy issue of their choice to Pat Archer, Truman Scholarship Faculty Representative,P-17CbyNovember 16,1984.

By Chris Reynolds Three of the candidates who are vying for local state assembly and congressional seats appeared in an open forum last Wednesday, October 24, on the Student Union patio.

Absent from the event, which was co-sponsored by the Women's Center and the Associated Student Body, was Republican candidate for the 43rd congressional district, incumbent Ron Packard.

Under sunny skies, head ASB senator and Forum moderator Ken Angiulo explained that candidates would be allowed seven to ten minutes to explain their position on issues and state qualifications for their respective positions. Spectators were allowed an opportunity to query candidates afterward in a question and answer session.

Lois Humphreys, the Democratic hopeful for the 43rd district's congressional seat, spoke first.

Humphreys began by offering a list of accomplishments she feels gives her the necessary experience to be a federal representative.

She told the audience of roughly 100 students that she: Is married and has two children.

Has lived in Carlsbad for 10 years, in which time she has worked with local educational institutions.

Belongs to the Wetland Preservation Society.

And is a member of the Carlsbad Taxpayers Association.

She was named Citizen of the Year by the Leucadia Town Council in 1981, is currently the president of the Board of Directors for the Leucadia Water District and is an administrator of the Encinitas Water Pollution Control.

Humphreys continued by trying to make clear the differences between herself and Packard on some of the issues facing candidates this term.

She charged Packard with having an appalling record on education and stated her own commitment to the community college system.

She further implied that she would approach the national budget deficit in a different manner saying, that she wants to cut all areas equally without hurting benefits .

Humphreys also offered her reasons for opposing the sub-minimum wage bill which was co-sponsored by Packard. The bill would allow employers to

pay as much as $1 under the minimum wage for workers under the age of 20.

According to Humphreys the bill would displace older people who hold those positions (i.e. in a fast food restaurant) in favor of cheaper labor.

Humphreys also made clear her support for a bilateral verifiable nuclear freeze while rebuffmg Packard for his affrrmative votes on the MX missile, chemical weapons and the B-1 bomber.

On Central America, Humphreys voiced concerns that we are initiating a conflict and that a draft might ensue.

She also supports the ERA and women's rights. She noted the evident disparity that exists when comparing the total number of women in society with the proportion of seats they hold in Congress.

She concluded by charging Packard was controlled by special interest groups. Humphreys contends that Packard received more Political Action Committee (PAC) money than any other candidate.

In the question and answer session, Humphreys fielded questions on the crime rate and how to reduce it. ''We'll have to pay for jails, for legal assistance and attack the problems of sexism, racism and poverty which contribute to the problem," said Humphreys.

She also confirmed her support of the Simpson/ Mazzoli bill in principle, but also feels we must have empathy for undocumented workers.

Humphreys was followed by Republican candidate for the Assembly's 76th district, incumbent William Bradley.

Bradley offered a brief history of positions he has held, including city engineer and city manager.

Bradley called politics an inexact science and noted that, "We (the candidates) all get PAC money," pointing to the necessity of the funds because of exorbit•ant campaign costs.

Bradley continued by stating his support of the $50 tuition for community college students. He intimated that he felt it made students take their education more seriously.

He further advocates tax cuts saying that he is pro-private rights as opposed to control by the public sector.

"How much tax support should you have to pay for social programs like lung or heart operations? We don't (Continued on page 3)

Flea Market director tells his story

By Chris Reynolds In response to a statement made by ASB president Kevin Farrow, former Flea Market director J.C. Lowery requested an opportunity to "tell the story of the Flea Market from the beginning."

The following is a recount of those events that led up to the eventual closing of the ASB venture that shut down earlier this year.

According to Lowery's testimony: On July 20, 1983, according to the ASB minutes, the Flea Market project was approved and ASB represenative Tony Lopez was appointed as its director.

At that time, $3,000 was budgeted to the venture.

The market opened for business on Sept. 17 1983. Less than one month later, on Oct.121983, the ASB minutes recorded that Lopez had resigned and that resignation was accepted.

At this point, J.C. Lowery was appointed as the new director of the project.

At their November 12 meeting it was According to Lowery, $5,000 was formally suggested that Lowery take slated to the enterprise between Sepover the venture. The motion was tember and July 1,$3,000 of which was seconded and carried. allocated to Lopez at the Market's inception.

Lowery states: "At the time of Lopez's resignation "At the budget meeting (on July 1), I there was about $400 left in the (Flea requested $7,000 in order to make the Market) account and there were still Flea Market function effectively," says bills outstanding. Due to lack of funds Lowery. "That figure was cut to $4,000 and the outstanding bills, $1,000 was with the stipulation that when the allocated to account number 60-11 money ran out we (the ASB) would (the Market's account) to be used for determine if there were enough supthree swap meets. port (vendors participating) to war"From October 12 to June 30 that rant its continuance." was the only physical money I was .

"I did go to Dean Price on several which we held it (originally Saturday). occasions about the problem. He told "At the grand opening, we had over me I had to go with the budget I had." 50 vendors and over 500 buyers," says

Lowery. "So, at that point we had good support.

"But I knew I could not continue spending $1,500 (per weekend) and I expected it to slowdown, but I thought it would pick up again."

However, the traffic did not rebound after it tapered off. Lowery blames this on the unusually hot weather we had at the end of this summer.

The issue ofw .. _.her to continue the swap meet was discussed at the ASB retreat in Palm Springs, according to Lowery. He said it was decided to allow the market to continue until October 1.

According to Lowery, "By then we should have started to see a return on our investment because of consistent advertising." He also noted that, "It's the shopping season. It's the time you make your money at swap meets. People are looking for unique items (for Christmas).

"I started to have some concern (that the swap meet might be terminated) when at the frrst ASB meeting

(September 12) the issue appeared on the agenda. It had already been decided at the retreat that the Flea Market would be allowed to continue until October 1.

"It did not appear on the regular minutes. It was added to the agenda. I believe there was some kind of a rush put on it," said Lowery.

According to Lowery, Dean Price made no mention of the Flea Market at the retreat, but Lowery also noted that no vote was taken. It appeared to him, however, that the consensus was to allow the Flea Market to go until October 1.

'1'he things that were happening just weren't consistent. Now all of a sudden money was the big issue. The only thing I can figure is that the calls from the sheriff had some effect on this," speculated Lowery.

Lowery stated that prior to their frrst meeting Dean Price had received notification from the sheriff.

Consistent leadership preferred

Bloc-votes urged for Democrats

By Pat Archer

EDITOR'S NOTE: Dr. Michael Newbrough and Dr. Pat Archer are both political science teachers at Palomar College and are offering opposing views on our presidential candidates.

By Dr. Michael Newbrough Most of us are rapidly approaching the saturation level regarding this election; we've heard just about every reason why we should or shouldn't vote for Reagan. However (and since the fine editor of this paper requested it!), I do have a couple of points that have largely gone unconsidered.

The present national climate of optimism, peace and growing economic prosperity do explain, partly, the President's high approval ratings in national surveys. More important, perhaps, are the qualities of character and leadership that account for his popularity.

Reagan exudes self-confidence; by nature he is genial and unflaggingly optimistic. He sets clear priorities and inspires those around him with energy and vision. He has strengthened the presidency and has re-kindled the idea of leadership, without which democracy cannot function.

But then, these attributes of Mr. Reagan's tenure have already received much attention, even if, recently, rendered in the simplistic tone of electioneering propaganda. So I want to emphasize two aspects that have not received adequate attention: experience and consistency.

One of the greatest flaws in a democracy is the tendency to discount the asset of experience in our leaders. They each enter the the office as amateurs; the only way to learn "president-ing" is, after all, through on-the-job trial and error! Usually, after a couple of years, their skills and policies are forced to correspond increasingly to domestic and international realities (even Carter was improving toward the end!) .

Similiarly, consistency in government policies is a vital ingredient and, alas, all too rare a phenomenon among democracies. This is painfully apparent in long-term economic and, especially, foreign policies. No part of this complex interdependent economy can thrive or operate efficiently if the federal government keeps changing course dramatically every four years.

And imagine the anxieties of both allies and adversaries in the serious games of international politics when American elections rollaround! Here we go again- zigs and zags, new policies made or broken - as another amateur learns his job while hovering near some pretty important buttons!

So, if none of the successes of the Reagan presidency appeal to you, I suggest the consideration that experience need not be wasted, and consistency (and consequent stability) for the first time in 30 years - might characterize American foreign policy, if we keep this man in office.

Whether or not we agree with each of Reagan's policies, and despite the understandably desperate accusations of Mondale, it must be admitted that we do have currently a leader who believes in something and knows where he's going. I find that refreshing, and isn't it what the presidency is primarily about?

Proposition 38 may restrict voting rights

By Sabrina M. Messenger Do you speak English well? If not , then a "yes" vote for Proposition 38, could possibly take away your voting rights.

America has long been a haven for immigrants. With certain exceptions, most people's ancestors willingly came to this country. It is desirable that all citizens fit comfortably into the mainstream of American society, but voting yes on Proposition 38 will not speed up this process. It will only succeed in preventing new citizens and many of our elderly from clearly understanding the issues that are important to us all.

English is one of th~ hardest languages to learn and our immigrants have a true desire to learn it, as evidenced by the long waiting lists for English clases at community colleges. Citizenship tests only require a fifth grade level of English. And even those people who have been speaking English fluently since childhood are confused by the ballots!

It has been proposed by proponents of

this initative that if a citizen really does have trouble with English, an interpreter should be brought into the voting booth. This sounds like a good idea, but there is danger of the interpreter not being objective and interpreting a personal point of view, instead of what is on the ballot. This would also be an invasion of privacy. The ballots are supposed to be secret.

The last myth to be debunked about Proposition 38 is that it is too expensive to make multi-lingual ballots. According to Congressman Robert Matsui in Los Angeles County these ballots account for less than 3% of county election costs, and Santa Clara and San Diego counties also document minimal costs. If they really are expensive, it seems to me that a workable solution would be to require all the candidates to put aside part of their contributions for this purpose and to also accept private donations to be put into a bank account expressly for providing multi-lingual ballots.

Don't allow your voting rights to be subjected to old time "literacy testing".

Vote NO on Proposition 38.

Only certain classifications of people should vote for the Democratic party and its candidates. Others should vote for the party that best represents them.

If you are a working person being paid hourly or a set salary, you should vote the Democratic party because it was the Democratic party that secured the minimum wage, time and a half for overtime, workmen's compensation and unemployment compensation. The Republican party opposed all of these programs when first enacted. The Reagan administration is presently trying to cut the minimum wage and remove protections for those doing piece work.

If you are a college student in need of financial assistance, you should vote the Democratic party because it was the Democratic party that provided for student loans. Presently, the Democratic party is attempting to restore those student loans that were curtailed by the Reagan forces.

If you are a minority, you should vote the Democratic party because it is the Democratic party that is providing programs to teach ¡ minorities skills that will permit them to get decent jobs. The Republican party opposes these programs. Also, the Reagan administration is not actively enforcing the Civil Rights laws. It was the Republican party poll officials in Escondido that denied native born MexicanAmerican registered voters the right to vote in the 1964 election just because they were Mexican-American and likely to vote Democratic.

If you are retired, close to retirement or have a dear one who is retired and you or they are not extremely wealthy, you should vote for the Democratic party. It was the Democratic party that enacted Social Secunty and Medical Care to the aged. The Republican party opposed these ideas at the time and presently the Reagan administration is trying to chip away at these programs.

If you are an environmentalist, you should vote for the Democratic party because the Democratic party is working to clean up our rivers and waste sites. The Reagan administration is dragging its feet on environmental issues.

If you are a conservationist, you should vote for the Democratic party because the Reagan administration is attempting to sell off large tracts of federal parks and federal forests to its greedy friends .

If you have a sense of compassion for your fellow person, you should vote for the Democratic party. It was the Democratic pary that got AFDC, medial care for the poor and safer working conditions for the poor. The Reagan administration got the tax bill that discriminates against the poor to the advantage of the very wealthy. The Reagan administration is not enforcing the industrial safety laws.

Although Jimmy Carter might be called ineffective, he did get the Iranian hostages out alive. Reagan, in a move that reveals his lack of understanding of the problems of the Middle East, personally caused the death of 241 Marines. Walter Mondale is for a strong defense and the containment of Soviet Imperialism.

Reagan is revealing his naiveness when he advocates the sharing of Top Secret information with the Russians.

If you believe in honest elections, you should vote for the Democratic party. Your local Republican Congressman, Ron Packard, was elected as a result of 62% of the votamatic booklets being illegally defaced by his supporters.

Mondale and Ferraro are advocating a strong defense and domestic programs that are fair.

Reagan's advisers have shown that they do not understand the problems of the Middle East and Central America and that they are unfair to the poor and disadvantaged. The Mondale/Feraro ticket is better prepared to handle the upcoming Reagan Depression of 1985.

Lowery refutes charges recommended against it," said Gittings.

What followed Lowery's "investigation" is an incident that Lowery feels "blew the whole thing out of proportion."

It was noted in the ASB minutes of September 12 that Lowery had held the previous swap meet without Dean Price's permission.

(Continued from page 1) "At that time he gave me the name and phone number of a Deputy Jenkins and told me to take care ofit. That was my job, to take care of Flea Market problems."

The issue in question, which was raised by Jenkins, was in regard to a city ordinance that prohibits swap meets in the San Marcos City Limits.

"I called Jenkins and what he told me was that he was concerned if we had a license, but I told him we were a state institution and we were exempt.

Our only compliance would be with t he state business and professional code and their section on swap meets.

He said he would research that (and whether or not Palomar needed a business license) and get back to us because if we needed the license, we needed a land-use permit," said Lowery.

Jenkins returned Lowery's call on September 14 and stated that he had talked to the city attorney. At that time Jenkins said he felt that the college was in violation of the ordinance, but recommended that the swap meet continue with business until the city could determine whether Palomar was in violation or not, according to Lowery.

With this information, Lowery says he went to investigate the question himself, to see whether the college had violated the ordinance and if so, where they could get special permission to continue the project.

At that same meeting a motion was made to cancel the Flea Market, but that motion died. A motion to continue the Flea Market was tabled until Dean Price received his letter from the Sheriffs Department.

"If I had received direct contact from Dean Price telling me I shouldn't have put on the Flea Market I would have stopped," said Lowery referring to the swap meet that followed the September 12 meeting.

"Marilyn Lunde (Dean Price's secretary) said that Dean Price had called.

She said that he said he didn't want to hold the Flea Market."

But Lowery said the information was second-hand and he felt it may have been inaccurate.

"Due to the fact that radio announcements, advertising, press releases and public service announcements had been made, and in lieu of the fact that I

had straightener! things out legally, I didn't think it was a good idea to cancel it."

Lowery also offered an accounting of funds and their use in the Flea Market venture.

Lowery states that the $9,000 was expended in this manner:

"He is their knight in shining armour.

He can't do anything wrong as far as big business is concerned," said Polesetsky.

Polesetsky says he researched Bradley's supporters at the Registrar of Voters and found his biggest contributors to be real estate people and land developers.

Polesetsky also tried to draw a connection between the support Bradley received from public utilities and his voting record on rate increases.

Polesetsky noted that t hose increases have brought California to a status of second highest among the nation in utility costs.

Polesetsky freely admitted that he did not have the fmancial support that Bradley does. He explains by saying that the $3,000 he has raised has "come from the people." According to Polesetsky, he has a hat in his office which serves as a depository for some of those funds.

"When I get $10 in that hat it's time to celebrate with a bottle of champagne, except that I can't afford it," quipped Polesetsky.

There seemed to be a clear difference between the candidates' stance on key issues. It should provide a clear choice for voters at the booth on November 6.

It should be noted that Palomar president Dr. Omar Scheidt had correspondence with the city manager Rick Gittings.

"I did receive correspondence from Dr. Scheidt," said Gittings. "We never formally said that it was alright for them to have a swap meet, but we weren't getting heartburn over the issue.

The Telescope, Friday, November 2, 1984

Poloists taste fruits of upset over Citrus

Paul Taylor Dream of glory lives for most local athletes It is a dream to top all dreams. An unlikelihood, improbability and unrealistic to be sure. But it is a dream nonetheless.

THE dream.

Ask a kid, any kid, playing ball on the street or playground what he wants to be when he grows up. More often than not, the kid will tell you he wants to be a professional football player. Or basketball or tennis or whatever.

A professional athlete. It is the dream.

A dream that starts with Pop Warner and Little League and Boys Club basketball and tennis lessons.

For some the dream ends there, but not very dramatically. For most, though, it goes on. And so do the dreamers, in search of wondrous athletic utopias.

Actually, it is only junior high school leagues, Pony League baseball and flag football leagues. That is the next stop for many others. Still, though, the survivors press on. And on. And on.

To high school. Where big brothers and sisters have scored many a triumph in days past. To be on that fabled gridiron or 94x50-foot slab of hardwood on a Friday night with a few thousand students yelling and screaming and cheering at you - for you - is the ultimate.

And for only a few it happens. Only a handful from every school are actually good enough to see their name in the newspaper, to see their picture underneath banner headlines blaring out the exploits of these individuals.

And when the super-jocks make the super-plays, like they always do, their teammates are the first to congratulate them, shake their hand, hug them, give them high fives and tens.

But inside. Inside, isn't there just a little bit jealousy, of resentment, of wishful why-can 't-that-be-meism thinking? Of course there is.

Because inside, it IS them.

It is these no-name athletes, these 160-pound running backs, these fivefoot-eight receivers, these 180-pound nose guards, these six-foot-two pivotmen.

They are the ones burying the 20footers at the buzzer for the win. They are the ones ripping the ball into the upper deck off of Goose Gossage in the 1Oth inning of the seventh game of the World Series. They are the ones running for 70-yard touchdowns in the Super Bowl. They are the ones performing aerial acrobatics, not these bozos like Erving, Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson. They are the ones slamming backhand winners past McEnroe and Navratilova.

In their minds, the game that isn't until next week has already been won single-handedly by them 27 times. But when those Friday nights finally do come, nothing changes. The stars still get the publicity. The others still get nothing.

And then, one day in June, it all ends. For all but a very few. There are no more Friday night games to look forward to. No more passes to catch, no more shots to make, no more runs to score, no more serves to slam.

No more cheers to hear.

The dream ends, four years prematurely.

There are those, however, who go on. Not many, but a few. And for them, the dream lives. Some athletes donning the scarlet and silver of Palomar will continue their quest at bigger schools next year. Two years after that, if the dream is still there, they will receive a call.

A call to glory, of sorts.

The professionals. The big time.

Phase out fantasyland. Zoom in reality. When that happens - if that happens - it is the end or, rather, the fulfillment, of a dream.

For only a microscopic percentage, it comes true. For the others it won't.

But for them all, it will never die.

Lefiti comes back, but gridders don't

By Paul Taylor

A junior college football team or a M* A •s•H unit? Your guess is as good as anybody else's.

On October 27, Palomar football coach Tom Craft took his walking wounded to San Marcos High School to do battle with Santa Ana. The result was not what Craft would have liked- a 21-17loss- but then again, what would you expect from an advertisement for General Hospital?

Taking into consideration the Comets' current physical condition, Craft entered the contest hoping to crawl

away with a ball-controlled win.

Apparently, though, the Dons were not willing to cooperate. A three-yard dash by Santa Ana's Michael Jones with barely four minutes left in the game prevented the Comets from getting that win.

Yet, despite all the injuries, Palomar still might have secured the win if not for a crucial fumble by Leroy Lefiti halfway through the fourth period.

That handed the visitors the ball on the Comets' 25-yard-line.

The defense for Palomar, which has performed so well the entire season,

made things tough for the Dons. It took nine plays to put the ball in the end zone, and the winners had to convert a couple of big fourth-and-lessthan-a-yard situations.

The hosts had gotten out of the gate quickly, leading 10-0 on a 46-yard field goal by Jason Schluntz and six-yard scoring pass from Chris Batchelor to Bill Unkovich.

After two Santa Ana touchdowns, former Poway High School Titan Tim Craig intercepted a pass and returned it 35 yards for a score, putting the Comets back on top.

They might have stayed there, too, if

not for Lefiti's fumble.

Ironically for the injury-plagued Scarlet and Silver, Lefiti was playing his first game in almost two months since injuring his shoulder, and he did well, rushing for 69 yards.

But the passing game that Craft likes so much was virtually non-existent as starting receivers Rey Nicholas and Lafo Malauulu missed the game with - what else? - injuries.

With them out, Batchelor was not a factor, completing only seven of 23 passes for 84 yards and an interception.

Volleyballers look Sharp in easy win

By Paul Taylor Don't mind Teri McFarland these days. She can be excused for wearing that smile on her face.

McFarland's volleyball team played without freshman Kim Thweatt one of its best hitters. ' The hitting led the Comets to a rela-

tively easy 15-7, 12-15, 15-3, 15-5 win over Imperial Valley College October 26. ''The girls played very well," McFarland said. "I was a little skeptical about playing without Kim, but the team did fme without her.

Hernandez scores tvvo as kickers split Splitting a pair of games, the men's soccer team kept its conference record at the .500 level last week.

Palomar opened by playing Southwestern and turned in, according to coach Frank Hankin, one of its worst performances of the season.

"It started when one of our players passed the ball back to our goalie," Hankin said. "Only one of their players was there, and he put the ball in the net. After that they scored three goals in five minutes and beat us 4-0.

"We tried to come back, but I guess it

was just one of those things."

Palomar, now 4-4-2 in conference play, hosts San Diego City today at 3 p.m.

The opposite of the fust game held true for Hankins' team against Grossmont in a 2-0 win last Friday.

"The guys played beautifully in that game," Hankins said. "The whole team got to go in, and everybody played well."

Leading scorer Hector Hernandez scored both goals for the winners. The first one came off a pass from Glenn Olsen and the other on a penalty kick.

Palomar is now 2-3 in the conference, 4-6 overall and hosts San Diego City tonight at 7 p.m.

An added bonus for McFarland was the play of Carrie Sharp, who had been struggling in previous matches with her hitting. Not this time, though.

"Yes, she really started hitting again," McFarland acknowledged. "She's a real versatile player. Even when she wasn't hitting well, she was still helping the team because she's such a good passer.

That's one of the reasons we're only going with two setters- Joey Velas-
