LHS makes a racket The tennis team did fairly well this year in both their fall and spring seasons. However, strength lay mainly in a few individual players rather than the whole team. HNot much support was given to the tennis team, said Senior Kim Brown. Since the competition was Stopping for a picture, Senior Kim Brown cheerfully heads for ten- nis practice during seventh period. Photo by Kim Higdon. spread out over two seasons, tennis was usually overlooked as students focused on foot- ball or soccer events. With more members on the team this year practices be- came more intense. We worked very hard in practice and individually, said Senior Amy McGarrahan. Practice payed off for play- ers such as Amy and Senior Melanie Nolan, the two top girl players. Others, such as Seniors 'Billy Quinn and Mark Jester were strong play- ers. Tennis was not all serious- ness, though. The players be- came good friends and made playing more fun. Because tennis is more of an individ- ual sport, making friends was important. Coach Tony Ramirez was the coach for the 1987-88 team. He taught us a lot and was a good friend as well,', said Senior Bill Grubbs. Even though the team did not do as well as they hoped, all the players did their best. Julie Rowell 5- x 1 . ,-1 .

This was the eighth year in a row that the boys varsity golf team has come home from district with a first place title. The key to our success is that while golf may seem to be an individual sport, Lamar plays as a team well, said Coach Rudy Peach, who coached golf for the first time this year. Four of my golfers played really well and that took the pressure off the oth- ers, which allowed the team to do well as a wholef' he add- ed. The all district tourna- ment was held in Denton on April 6, 7, and 8. The top fin- ishers were Juniors John Burroughs and Clayton Frenzel, Sophomore Gary McDaniels and Senior Phil Dyson. The guys had the four lowest scores of the tourna- ment. Seniors Ryan Exparza and Kirk Armstrong made second team all district. To win has become a tradition at Lamar. We know that to keep it up, we must practice, said Armstrong. Not only were the guys suc- cessful, but the girls finished well too. Seniors Debbie Line and Kellee Holder and Soph- omores Christina Smith and 30 X Golf!Design by Leslie Bachand W ,- Jamie Speigner made second team all district for the girls division. Practices were held at 2:30 at either the ditto City Course or Rolling Hills Coun- try Club. The weather was not good for the season. That's prob- ably why we did not shoot so good until district. Our team did awesome in the tourna- ment, said Junior Brad Wil- liams. I enjoyed coaching this year because not only are they good golfers, but they are great people, said Peach. Leslie Bachand
