RACKETEERS SMASH TO SECOND, BASEBALL The Tennis Teom stroked its way into second place in both the C.C.C. and the State Meets. These accomplishments provided a just reword for the seven members and two substitutes who spent many hours slashing the ball in practice. Juniors Mark Tierney and Mike Lovett were the greatest worry to opponents os the team established a 7-1 conference record. Mr. Colston guided and prompted this team of net-stragglers throughout the season. Hopes of o perfect record loomed as members of the teom awaited with anticipation of more vicious serves, resounding volleys, and off balance counter shots. Though there was o lot to be said about the efforts of the 1965 De La Salle Baseball Teom, coach J. Shrake never said it out loud. It was the inadequate pitching and fielding thot led the 20 members to a humiliating 3-22 record. As in all sports there were highspots in the season. Senior Denny Grande and Junior Tom Shull were the team's powerhouse in the category of batting. Sophomores did not sit on the bench all season. Toward the season's end they were given the chance to display their talents in conference gomes. TENNIS (I to R) Bock Row; M Welth, T. Krenn, M. Mackey, M loven. M Tierney, G. John on. $.
