This year's badminton team had two returning letterpersons. They were Laurie Alberti, Sophomore. and Chris Sarna, Junior. The majority of the team was composed of Freshmen who did a remarkable job playing against girls with two or three years of ex- perience. The team's high point was their outstanding win over Cortez. The team won eight out of nine match- es at this meet, according to Mrs. Flesner. It should be an exceptional sea- son next year with more returning players. Badminton: Top row.
