But beneath these superficial aches and equip- ment problems were teams composed of ex- perienced veterans and talented but untested underclass. Both teams started off slowly with two losses but came back strong and ended up with a suc- cessful season. Tom McLeod was the team's outstanding senior boy and Steve Zank showed great potential and skill as a junior. Two excel- lent players ior the girls' team were junior Peggy McAloon and sophomore Angela Miller. Both girls' and boys' teams will miss seniors George Turke, JerryI Raiie. Lyne McLamore.
