The Junior Varsity Girls ' Tennis team had a tough example to follow. Sit- ting in the shadow of the Varsity team ' s impressive 17-1-1 overall record, it was just a bit too much to expect them to match such a score. Or was it? Led by their coach Bill Cline, the J.V. Girls ' Tennis team went undefeated in their league to finish the season with an uncompromising re- cord of 9-0. Like the Varsity team, the players im- proved drastically throughout the year, com- mented sophomore Kim Simmons. The only It was too bad that we didn ' t get to play as much as the Var- sity -Coach Bill Cline factor separating the J.V. team from the Varsi- ty team was their difference in ability. Yet in no way did the J.V. team lack the ability to play tough tennis. One common disappointment to many of the team members was the fact that many of the schools in the Hacienda League didn ' t have Junior Varsity teams. We didn ' t get to play as often as Varsity did, stated Coach Cline. Yet the J.V. team learned a lot from the few but exciting games we did play. By beating all the other teams with a strong margin, we, the Brahmas, proved to the league that we are tough and here to stay.
