Most notable, according to Coach Norvell Burrow, were Allen Greene and Bernard Toner in running events, Bobby Gay in field events, and David England and Malcolm Garrard in jumping events.

Long practices, strategy and determination hiked the Boys ' Tennis record from 0-1 0 to 6-6. Potential problems, such as sharing the courts with the girls ' team, constant rain and rescheduled games worked themselves out. The schedule of matches earned the team the fourth place slot in the district. We could possibly have won a few more matches, but some of the players choked up sometimes during games, Coach Jack Cox commented. Still I ' m very pleased with the team ' s improvement. ennis: New Coach, Even Season Boys ' Tennis 27
