TENNIS Tennis got off to a good start this year with an unusually large turnout. The team played six matches, two each with Springville, Spanish Fork, and B. Y. High. Duane Hiatt and Richard Davis were the only returning lettermen. As the season progressed the members of the team improved greatly and oave the other schoo's some stiff comp- etition. Because several members of the team were Juniors and Sophomores. the Pavson team should have an outstanding team next year. The Coach was Verl Sudweeks.

WRESTLING The Payson High School wrestling team had a very successful season. Under the fine coaching of Coach Fuller and Allgood the Lions showed well in the many matches. Lack of experience handicapped the team in the region and state meets. The co-captains for the year were Norman Tachiki and Kieth Bishop. ln the region meet held at Payson the Lions were represnted by Keith Warner, Frank Bills, Duane Lindley, Garth Garity, Norman Tachiki, Ken Bowers, Neil Davis, Fred Muniz, Kieth Bishop, David Mecham, John Clark and Clifford Thomas. In the state meet, the Lions placed only two boys, Keith Warner, who placed lst and Clifford Thomas, who placed 4th. We hope that next ye:r with a more experienced team, the Lions will be a big threat for the state championship.
