VERSAILLES- “This team is not an oven, we’re a microwave. It
takes time for us to heat up,” said Versailles Lady Tigers coach Jackie
Stonebreaker of her team. Stonebreaker referred to her team in this
manner after the Tigers steam-rolled St. Henry Thursday in MAC play,

LOVING FAMILY, FAITHFUL FRIENDS
Life’s Challenges
By Kathy Magoto
