5 P O R T S This year, Car- son had a great over-all sport season. Sev- eral teams brought home league wins. Among them were: BEE and Varsity Football, BEE Basketball, Junior Varsity Bas- ketball, Varsity Basketball, and Girls ' Varsity Tennis. Since there ' s no city play-offs for the BEES and J. V. teams, only the varsity squads were able to go on to City. At the play-offs, basketball and foot- ball both came up short of becoming City champs. But, at the City Tennis Tournament, The Girls ' Tennis team captured the City title for the second year in a row. Erik Fukushima outmanucvering his oppo- nent. I got it! '

ACING THROUGH THE SEASON Congratulations to the Girls Ten- nis Team tor their outstanding ef- forts in winning the city champion- ship the second year in a row. Throughout the regular season, their record remained unblemished. Doubles one (Nerie Mojica and Jose- phine Baltazar) and singles four (Te- resa Austin) also had undefeated re- cords. Gardena was considered the toughest opponent for the Mighty Colts. Three times they tried to overcome our team, but with strength and determination, the Mighty Colts withstood the Mohi- cans ' drive. The Colts convincingly won their first and second encoun- ters with scores of 5-2 and 6- 7, re- spectively. They ended their awe- some season by defeating Gardena in the City Finals with a score of 4-3. Competition extended beyond the regular season tor those who participated in the City Individual Tennis Tournament.
