The Varsity and JV teams were composed mainly of younger players. .Junior Shin Ho Kim stated, This season was different from past years because almost all the players were underclassmen. The core of both teams consisted of juniors such as Steve Lee and Fred Yim and also sophomore Andrew Koo. Robby Cambell and Peter Yim, two of the four seniors on the team, said, lt was hard being seniors on the team because the coach wanted younger players so they could be experienced for future years.

Amazed at having to return every shot, sophomore Brian Howard puts forth much effort. when they graduated, only a few underclassmen were left on the team to carry on the sport. ln spite of the senior shortage, coach Love spoke highly of the team when he stated, They never complained and were all hard workers with a good sense of fair play. Because tennis was more of an individual sport working within a team concept, they showed competitive spirits but only to a beneficial degree. Since this season was dedicated to building a foundation for later years, junior Vincent Koch, top doubles player, stated, Winning gave me a great feeling, but l was satisfied just to be more successful than last year. by Mary Jung jf, Rt!

They were momentarily set back by the loss of their seniors who made up most of the varsity team last year, but the team was fortunate to gain newcomer and senior stand-out, Brad Adam. Although the number one spot is never definite due to numerous shoot-outs, sophomore, Dan Martin was also one of the team's stronger players. The team spent countless nights and endless dollars at Verdugo Hills Golf Course practicing their swing, putt, and grip.
