ll f T Tennis Team Shows o Faults A When thinking of championship sports at Prep you would have to think of tennis. Coached by Mr. Jerome Pohl. the I984 Rambler tennis team played one of its most demanding independent schedules yet. By competing against the best in the Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Eastern Penn- sylvania areas, the Prep team also showed its usual dominant force within the metro circles for another year. The expertise of captain Pat DeMarco led the team of their excellent standing and notoriety through- out the state. Returning seniors who gave their contributions to the team were Tom Bu, Jay Quirk and Chris Goebel. Our thanks to coach Pohl for another terrific tennis season.
