Pacemaker fails to slow determined Menke
By Jac* Bunga*
Ann Menke doetnt plan on falling
down much more on the basketall
court. And the frethman*'* promising
collegiate career at Fresno Sute i* right
back on schedule, having barely missed a
beat. Literally.
The story behind Ann's stumbling on
the basketball court has been well docu¬
mented in the past month. Fresno State
athletic trainer Ed Ferreira found it un¬
usual for a collegiate athlete of Anne's
ability to stumble sO often. After all. she
had been named finl team All-Califor¬
nia Interscholastic Federation during a
sterling career at Buena High School in
Ventura.
Confused, Ferreira and the Bulldog
staff persisted, eventually calling in Dr.
William Kennedy, who diagnosed the
problem quickly. Ann Menke, the Bul¬
ldogs' 149-pound guard who is all of 18
years old, had an irregular heart beat.
And the answer was to implant a pace-
To undersund the competitive fire
that burns inside this young athlete, you
need look no further lhan her response
to the news. "The first thing I thought
was.' I'm awfully young for this, and I'm
healthy too," said Menke. "Then right
away I thought about basket ball."Three
days after the surgery, Menke was
shooting baskets.
Clearly, Menke was thinking about
basketball. When told that the pacema¬
ker would be put in on Dec. 16, Menke
requested that it be put in on her right
side. You *ee, Menke shoots left handed.
She's also ready to start shooting some
normal. I always could play and I'm
ready to now," (he said.
Ferreira agree*. "We »ee Ann every
day. and she's doing fine, he said.
"There were lou of concern* at Tint,
but there's nothing to worry about anyrnore.
She't back in a normal routine

Unfortunately for Menke, for the
moit part a normal routine consists of
sitting on the bench. But thi* wai
something she was prepared for before

"I realize I'm just a freshman now, and
playing time will eventually come."
Although Bob Spencer, Menke's coa¬
ch, describes her as "exceptional," he too
knows that any substantial playing time
will have to wait. The 'Dogs are simply
too set at the guard position. At least for
