Concentrating on her opponent. Kerrie Geibel prepares to serve Though a freshman. Kerrie proved to be an asset to the team. “Once, we came pretty close to forfeiting a tennis match with Taylors- ville. We had to provide our own transportation and we somehow missed the freeway exit, ending up in downtown Salt Lake. We then had to take State Street all the way back. Fortunately, once we got there, we won our match,” related Charlotte Cato. As the summer slipped away, we each prepared, in our own way, for the return to the old grind. And for the golf and girl’s tennis teams, back- to-school meant back-to- work. They may not have re- ceived the glory of varsity foot- ball players, but the fall sport teams were an important part of our athletic program. They worked as a team, but the challenges they faced were in- dividual and their victories gave a sense of personal ac- complishment. With the loss of five starting seniors, the golf team ran into some difficulties. Although their only victories were over Hillcrest and Kearns, they did gain experience while enjoying a relaxing hobby. With both matches and practices, the team spent four days a week, from the beginning of school to mid October, on the green. The girl’s tennis team also suffered the loss of many sen- iors. With the help of new coach, Doug Gregory, the team managed to overcome their setback. They practiced diligently and it paid off; they team placed second in region. In addition, three players. Ker- rie Geibel, Debbie Norberg, and Charlotte Cato, placed in state. Since both Kerrie and Debbie were freshman, the team should be strong in up- coming years. GOLF TEAM: Row 1: Jason El- dredge.
