ln I983 the track team was young and inexperienced, but their discipline and spirit led them to the Metro title. This year that same discipline and spirit com- bined with the experience of the I4 re- turning Iettermen, should bring the team to new heights. Head Coach Scott Grack was assisted this year by John Carrig, Jer- ry Masi, and Toby Marvin. Leading the team were senior Captains Rick Filippi. Tony Scarpelli, Paul Brzozowski. and Jim Bensur. With the talent and leadership of these four, along with the running prow- ess of sophomore Dan Schneider, the team's prospects for the Metro and Dis- trict titles were very good. Right: To ready themselves for Metro competition the team is forced to prac- tice indoors in the winter. Bottom Right: Coach Grack discusses technique with his top hurdler Sal Mugal. Below: Underclassmen Norman Saunders and Gary Dance are more than happy to have their pictures taken as they limber up. Jiiiisif cg 5A c lf- y,-- 5-. .2-.

ll f T Tennis Team Shows o Faults A When thinking of championship sports at Prep you would have to think of tennis. Coached by Mr. Jerome Pohl. the I984 Rambler tennis team played one of its most demanding independent schedules yet. By competing against the best in the Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Eastern Penn- sylvania areas, the Prep team also showed its usual dominant force within the metro circles for another year. The expertise of captain Pat DeMarco led the team of their excellent standing and notoriety through- out the state. Returning seniors who gave their contributions to the team were Tom Bu, Jay Quirk and Chris Goebel. Our thanks to coach Pohl for another terrific tennis season. Top: Senior Tom Bu barely backhands a pellet coming across the net. Middle Left: Pat DeMarco shows fierce power as he retaliates with a left hand slam. Middle Right: Matt Lynch watches with a keen eye after his precision serve. Bottom: Senior .lay Quirk is caught in stride of firing an explosive backhand.
