 Alison blows the ball over the net The Belleville East girls' tennis team had a good year. The team finished second in districts and placed third in the Belleville East Invitational Tournament. Three outstanding varsity players. Jayne Augustine and Nancy Kassebaum in doubles and Sue Pulley in singles, advanced to state. Good going, girls!
