Girls host basketball, swimming tourneys San Luis Obispo High's representation in interscholas- tic girls sports was expanded with tennis, basketball, track and swim teams seeing action. Although Tiger girl netters went unplaced individu- ally in the league tourney, as a team SLO posted a IO- l-I varsity season record. Along with playdays, SLO hosted its own basketball tourney for the first time in many years and placed fourth out of tive teams. By sweeping all the first places, San Luis topped seven schools in the Lompoc swimming invitational. San Luis continued to dominate the mermaid picture with a dual meet win over Lompoc at press time.

Bengal netters ousted by tough Arroyo Grande After posting an early 4-l record, the Bengal netters of Coach Joe Leonard were expected to finish in second place in '68 behind Arroyo Grande, the favorite. As last year's CIF representative from the local league San Luis Obispo was actually co-champion with Arroyo Grande, but held the edge in the best of three game series, 2-l. Although Dave Rasmussen won all his matches, San Luis still lost to Santa Paula 20-8 in CIF first round play in '67. This year, however, the Bengals, plagued by gradua- tion losses, were picked to finish second. The opening match of the season pitted Atascadero against San Luis with the Bengals sweeping the match. Paso Robles fell 6-l before the Bengal rackets and then Arroyo Grande arrived for the showdown. Arroyo Grande took everything except the courts as the highly-touted Eagles swept to an easy 7-O blitz. Stunned, but not demoralized the Bengals dumped Morro Bay twice 5-2 and 6-l. Tennis-65
