However, with the addition of freshman Eric Evett and a senior transfer from Trenton High School in Michigan, Mike Peters, this year's team hoped to come up to the standards of last year,s 22-1 team record or exceed it. Back again for his second year, state singles cham- pion Robb Salant was again to be the netmenis main hope for state honors. Also returning were lettermen David Newcomb and john Stevenson. VVith three re- turning lettermen for a core and strong team addition, coach Keith Meenan predicted a powerful team again this year. Tucson High and Rincon again this year will be the rough spots in the schedule. Tucson will be out in force to revenge last year's loss that broke their 55 match winning streak. Rincon, with four returning let- termen, had the experience that the CHS netmen lacked. With excellent freshmen additions and fast im- proving sophomore and junior returnees, the netmen had the depth that is important to any top squad. An undefeated junior varsity also acted as a backup for the varsity. I See Spring Supplement for seasonis recordj
