team members SERVE IT UP A little yellow ball goes back and forth over a net, and back again. A person, one on each side of the net, holds a rac- quet in his or her hand, driving the bail back and try- ing to make utterly impossible for the opponent to re- turn it. Basically, this is a tennis match. A great tennis tradition has be- gun and several players played a role in upholding the tradition. David Henderson, Tim Tran and Kevin Thomas stood out in boys singles. Charity Leeman was out- standing in the girl ' s singles Bracket. Tennis Coach Ann Boswell said I felt we did very well this year ' The players worked hard and im- proved in many areas. Every practice consisted of warm-ups, drills and matches. Practices helped me a lot They helped me to have discipline and responsibility. Coach Boswell was a great help in keeping spirits up and losses down. She always cheered me on when I was playing terribly ' Natalie Quach said. And made everyone confident about them- selves. (Dennis Fudge) f earn members Kelly Dao, Cori Crokett Allison Gibbons and David Henderson pre- pare to do their drills. Practice was a major key In their success.

bottom of the 9th BASES LOADED It ' s Wednesday night and the game against Thomas Jef- ferson is about to get underway. Coaches and players alike are jittery at first, but the game ends with a win of 6 to 1 . Freshmen and sophomores combined this sea- son to bring together a team with more players and experience than ever before. These extra players and added skill proved to be an important part of the games. A new practice field was also added to accommodate the growth of the team. My favorite game was the sec- ond one against Cooper. We showed great potential and played well, Raymond Satterfield said. Coaching is an important part of any team, and this year was no exception. Coach Ted Nowell led the team to a 14-5 season. Coach Nowell helped us in all the little things. And the little things make the difference, Jeff Haas said. The difference definitely showed. (Dennis Fudge) On the move to second, JeH Haas tries tc turn a double play. Brenn Green backs hlrr up in case of an error.
