Improvement Leads Lady Netters Toward Success Tennis is a great game - a life long sport. Coach- ing gives you an opportunity to work with girls in a more relaxed manner, commented Mrs. Zeller, first year tennis coach. The team grew from nine to twelve players in its second year as being a sport at DHS. They retained five netters from the initial 1983 team: juniors Ja- mey Gulley, Kim Farmer, Trisha Johnson, and sen- iors Margaret Freeman, and Kim Montgomery. Ashley Hughes, the only freshman, sophomores Cindy Weller and Heather Downs, juniors Steph- anie Harris, and Jackie Rogers, and seniors Ana C- Sain and Jessica Hamilton rounded out the roster. Ana C-Sain's presense on the team marked the second year that a foreign exchange student had been on the team. The dedicated girls traveled to Tomahawk an average of five days a week to make for a successful season. They refined their skills and went from just hitting the ball over the net to incorporating strate- gy into each game. When asked at which meet she felt the girls did their best, Coach Zeller felt, They did their best at all of the meets. They achieved the most success at the Gardner Invitational on October 9th, where our number one doubles team took first and our num- ber two doubles finished in a tie for first. Trisha Johnson and Stephanie Harris highlighted the season by placing third at the regional tourna- ment hosted by Topeka-Hayden and qualifying for the State Tournament. Margaret Freeman backhands the ball back to her Gardner opponent.
