.. . 5-sr stts Varsity places two on All-City The varsity volleyball team got off to a good start and kept up the pace, tying for second place with South in the City League. The team had more experience and the girls were older and better ad- iusted to their competition. Two of the players were picked for the All-City Team: juniors Renee Lewis and Kym Carter. Ftenee was known as one of the city's best set- ters, while Kym was proficient with her hard spikes. East was the only high school to have two players pick- ed for the team. There will be only one senior leav- ing, so the outlook for the future seems good. Coach Janet Krack said, We have an excellent team. This is my second year, and it has already proven to be the best season so far. She also felt confident about next year, looking to see another winning season. 'Volleyball .9-r J ' ' ' ' V .
