Golf scores upped Boys' team average higher,- Girls' place two medalists at district Averaging 15 strokes better than last year's team and finishing in the top third in 7 of 8 tournaments over the year, the boys' golf team went to district competition. With Gerald Landry, Carlos Gonzales, Daryl Smith, Chris Costlow, and Mike Petron leading the boys' team, they placed fourth in overall competition at district. Costlow had the lowest tournament average and Landry had the second lowest average. The girls' team also went to district, but because of House Bill 72's effects, the team didn't have enough girls to compete for district: they had three and were required to have five. Two girls did take individual honors. Mary Dispensa placed fourth and Michelle Lind placing fifth. I feel that the boys did well and that if the girls had enough players they could have taken first place at Chris three year returning letterman 246 Sports district, commented Coach Leroy Carey.

Gonzales leads team Both tennis teams, boys and girls, attempted to outlast their compe- tition throughout the season but unfortunately the Coogs usually ended up on the short end of the stick. The boys ended the season with a 1-6 district record while the girls did slightly better with a 2-5 mark. Although the Coogs didn't play up to par, they had several standouts. Heading the boys' team was the number one double combination of Tom Spillar and Billy LeCompte. The team of Spillar and LeCompte was the most dependable in district competition posting a 3-4 record. The girls tennis team was highlighted by Sammy Gonzales. Throughout the year Sammy placed high in several tournaments, and had an unprecedented 7-0 district record and went into the district tournament seeded first. Un- fortunately she had to quit because of illness.
