All's Fair In Love And Aces T l Tennis anyone? The Mariner Girls' Tennis Team challenged many schools in the CAL with that question They played a fan- tastic season, too. The season was highly competitive and stren- uous but basically full of fun. Working hard at the sport and enjoying it was a combination that catapulted the girls from a last place finish a year ago to stunning second this year. Ac- cording to Enny Halkyer, A part of our motivation to get on the tennis courts and practice, was the opportunity to check out the Chabot soccer players and baseball players. The practice evidently paid off. A banquet and awards night wrapped up the season. Marina Sun garnered the Coach's Award as well as Most Inspirational and Co-Most Valuable Player. The Most Valuable Player award was shared by Annette Vait. Kathy Smith was chosen as Varsity Most Improved Player. Pam Molina was chasen as Ju- nior Varsity Most Improved Play- er. The team members will re- member their year in tennis not only because of the success and even the agonly of defeat but also the family-like feeling of be- ing part of the team. Rejoining the year's athletic cur- riculum was Boys' Tennis. Mak- ing a swashbuckling debut, the team was determined to be rec- ognized by the community. The revival of boys' tennis was made possible through dedicated and interested parents and eager ten- nis athletes. One fund raiser was a car wash held by the team members. The hard work in- volved to get the team going al- lowed them to have better facili- ties. During the season, the ath- letes could be found practicing at the Fremont Tennis Center two hours everyday after school when not playing in matches. The results of the games played by the team reflect their dedication to the sport. While working with the players, Coach Nancy Geenan also worked on her tan. The coach recommends, It's a great way to work on your sun- tanll' The team's success is due not only to practice but also to the individuals who make up the team. According to doubles' player David Tien, There's not just one or two good players but a lot of deeply talented play- ers on our team. Although many of the members did not know each other at first, they did have one common interest-the' love of tennis. This in itself was enough to go against all odds and bring boys' tennis back to Mo- reau. 1. Kathy Smith returns an opponents shot with a pros touch. 2. Marina Sun gets ready for the serve! 3.
