ETTERS NAME LAVINE CHAMP When seniors are nonexistent on any athletic team, lack of exper- ience results. ln order for the girls' tennis team to gain experience, Coach Joe Taylor had to institute a rebuilding campaign. Although not evident in the net- ters' record, the young team did ac- complish all the goals it set out to reach. Two of the goals were to play as many girls as possible and to re- build the team so that it will be more competitve next year. Contributing to the progress of the netters was the identification of three decent doubles teams, as well as good individual improvement, ac- cording to Coach Taylor. The tennis team finished third in SBC competition, and sophomore, Lisa Lavine won the sectional cham- pionship in singles. Her over-all re- cord was tallied at 13-6. Lavine was chosen as Most Valu- able Player, and the Most Improved Player award was presented to freshman, Lisa Perdue. The reserves ended their season with a 1-5 record. , 1. Using her backhand, Lisa Lavine hits the ball over the net with ease. 2. With deep concentration, Jean Wrighteyes a high hit ball. 123-Girls Tennis

GGLFERS GLEA AT SECTIG ALS With no huge crowds, no loud ap- plause or cheering, one would won- der how a golfer becomes motivat- ed. But motivated our putters must have been, for they enjoyed another excellent season and walked off with their first sectional championship. Losing five of last year's letter- men, the golfers started like it was going to be a long season as was said by Coach Frank Laudonia, but they bounced back and putted to a 12-4 season. In addition to claiming the sectional title, the team took second place in the SBC, occupied third and fourth place spots in the Norwalk and Vermilion lnvitionals, respectively, and finished ninth in district competiton. Mike Schuessler, who saw little varsity action last year, came through in some of the season's pressure filled situations. Captain Jay Weiland played with lasting abili- ty and was the medalist at the sec- tional tournament. Receiving special recognition at the sports banquet were Scott White QMost Valuable Playerj and Ray Whi- tacre fMost Improved Playerj. 1 4 ,Q ,A .. ... 5 xffvx f f' 1 16 16 1 73 8 0 71 70 Edison ,ggi ' .
