The team, coached by Jim Paa- janen, worked very hard improving skills such as the forehand swing, the back hand swing and their serving. I feel the team was very strong even though we were such a young team. If we had had more upper classmen, I think we would have done better, commented Beth Moch, sophomore.

Tennis proves better than ever The I985 boys' tennis team was better and stronger than ever be- fore, said Jim Schonaerts, Head Coach. Coach Schonaerts worked very hard, developing skills and setting goals. The main goal this year was for us to win at least 502 of our games, said Coach Schonaerts. The team was very young this year, but they developed into a stronger and better team. We had the strongest team in 5 years and the largest team in IO years. Each year we get better, commented Coach Schonaerts. A lot of the credit goes to Brian Singer, for he is a 3 year letterman and he had provided alot of leader- ship for the other players, he said.

Girls ' track competes at NA The I984-85 girls' track team started the season with a loss to Prescott. Victories were won by Liz Odom in the l00 meter hurdles and 300 meter hurdles and Lisa Prescher in the 400 meter sprint on the Varsity level and Eilleen Mincy, in 400 meter sprint, Laurie Klaass, in discus, and the 400 x 4 relay team of Mincey, Jaques, Trejo, and Lewandowski. Even though the team was larger than it had been in past years, Coach Pat Lindmark felt his team was well balanced with a variety of people in each event. Even though the team was balanced, it excelled in dual meets rather than in invita- tionals because the team was so young. This year there were only three returning Iettermen. They were ju- nior Tammy Johnson in the shot put and discus, sophomores Liz Odom in the hurdles and Lisa Prescher in the sprints. The letter- men lead the team in spirit and showed the younger team mem- bers the ropes. The coaching staff of Mr. Pat La- vin, sprints. Mr. Matt Clark, dis- tance, Mrs. Bobbi Howard, high jump and hurdles, Miss Terri Smith, shot put, and Mr. Dave Webber, discus, helped to pull the team through a trying year. l36 -. , , . .. , . 5 ' '. .i.,,.,..- Z'N',,v,,, ggg. --1' 4 55 f Varsity Track.
