Temi Uidlj Togetherness and support comes with a new coach. Alan Smith coaches at Arlington for the first time. Trent Seckinger Lion ' s, let ' s go! was a common expression ineard near tine tennis courts on the days of the big matches. The team practiced two hours a day everyday of the week and kept up their men- tal awareness, stated soph- omore, Summer Johnson. Although this was the first year for Mr. Alan Smith to coach at Arlington, he felt that it was a good year for the girls. They tried hard and they were just great! exclaimed Coach Smith. The concentration and agressiveness of our team was the main factor in play- ing a good game, he added. Concentration showed in the girls ' expressions. The courts were very quiet dur- ing matches, unlike other sports such as football or swimming. Junior, Lisa Pear- son, felt that there didn ' t need to be a lot of cheering and such because, We had team unity and supported each other all the way. Sophomores, Julie Rinewalt and Arisia Rodri- guez, agreed, The varsity team was strong and the J.V. had a lot of potential, but everyone getting along together was what really helped. Of course, we had arguments among our- selves, like everyone else, but we made up, and the support was back! The tennis team had a dif- ferent way to determine their 1 players. Every Fri- day they had what was called a challenging match. Players interested in moving up the ladder, challenged another player up to three steps higher than them- selves. If the challenger won the match, they took the place of the looser and ev- eryone else moved down one step. Although the team had such a system to place players, Jeanette Tupper managed to keep her spot as 1 varsity player throughout the entire sea- son. I kept my title throughout the seasoti, be- cause when I played, I played hard. I practiced everyday of the week and on weekends. Mental tough- ness, senority and my love for tennis, kept me 1. confessed Jeanette Tupper. by Karen Madokoro ■ BALLS, BALLS, BALLS, Charlotte Harrison picks up tennis balls on the racquetball court.
