Girl's Tennis starts with snow shovels Starting the season with snow shovels instead of tennis rackets provided a change of pace. The record of three wins and eight losses did not indicate the actual play of the season as the netters faced some of the best teams in the area. With only two seniors on the squad this year, the returning lettermen should provide an excellent base for next year.
