At regionals, in April, we wiped everyone out within three sets, said a confident Doug Holmes in reaction to his and Mitch Michulka's regional win. The Eagle doubles team won with scores of 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 over Brad Rice and Tim Lootens of Houston Klein. The team earned Holmes and Michulka a trip to state where they lost to Bryan, 7-6, 6-3. At the spring regionals competi- tion the girls' doubles team of Hol- ly Hayes and Tiffany Ames placed 3rd in regionals, losing only to Chris Freeman and Claire Sessions of Hlghland Park 6-4, 4-6, 5-7.

But, when regionals came around Holmes took over for Campbell who was disqualified. During the season coach CDavidD Ricks got us all together, and we really worked hard, said Hayes. In the fall season the team's work also paid off with the District 12-5A Championship over 2nd- place Plano, Oct. 13-15. In the semifinals the Eagles smashed Plano Senior High 10-3 and ad- vanced to the finals where they beat Lake Highlands 11-7. The Eagles came in 2nd at regionals losing to powerhouse Klein, 10-4, in the finals. We had a strong chance to go to state, said junior Marianne Dunn. Actually, the finals of regionals were the same as state because Klein was last year's champs. Tennis is one of the only sports where you are competing against others and yourself, said senior Katie Hazelwood. - Christina Watson!Traci Stafford f -.Ns-Max - -G2 Tx, In a tight squeeze senior Robby Scholl hits a back-hand. fTillapaughj
