CHS Racqueteers Make H Y, ....,.,,.N.. ., f,., , a Leaping high into the air to get extra power is Pat Beers. Bid for Tennis Championship Expecting a great season, Catalina's Varsity Tennis Team has only one loss on the schedule in six games this year. The Trojan racketmen did not find defeat spelled on their schedule for five matches, but upon meeting Tucson High School, last yearis state cham- pions, the picture changed to a defeat. Coach Meenan claims We will defeat them next time this season. The racketmen have practiced and prepared all year to make the ,62 season go down on the records as one of the best in the history of Catalina. Bob Salant, Catalina's top netman, has helped lead the Trojan team to many victories with other high school teams. The CHS tennis squad played twenty-two matches and five tournaments this season. Catalinais Jayvee team has beaten every team it has played so far this season and should come out with a fine record. The freshmen, which have their season in the fall, came through with a four-one season, defeated only by Tucsonis freshmen team. Coach Keith Meenan predicts an excellent season next year because he is losingvery few lettermen through graduation. 7 ' i' I, 'A' T ' le-all -51552 .J it R 3 V :L il ,Q if 2 nr J, V ,Q 4 rn , ' ,4 -:J : gf-,N J- J ,fa It ,af u We-My 1 f i P 5 - i' J Nl, A gag- ' v ,-- ,gniilfgi 'ig 5. .ir . ,, ,. f 5.
