Getting T’d Pays Off We placed higher in Districts than people expected us to. A lot of schools had never even heard of us.” — Maury Hod gens Wade Williams and Daniel Mitcheii prepare to tee off at Gadsden Country Clob against NFC. Interruptions throughout the season such as Wade Williams’ case of chicken pox, Brian Gregory’s emer- gency apendicitis, and Base- ball practices and games could have caused a bad season. However, despite these setbacks the team had a winning record of 13-5, with victories over such large AAA schools as Leon and Maclay. They also beat Gadsden Christian by six- teen strokes. With more than half the team being very experi- enced the younger players might have been intimidat- ed. However, Brian Gregory and Hank Alexander really excelled in their matches against more experienced juniors and seniors. Winning nine matches straight, left the team with high hopes for the District Tournament, and their op- timistic outlook placed them fourth out of sixteen teams. Overlooking their handicaps and limitations the team carried on their winning season trend. ‘2J Golf team: Wade Williams, Randy Skipper, Chris Smith, Daniel Mitchell, Hank Alexander, Maury Hod gens, ay Brooks and Coach Wilder. On his first drive of the day against NFC, Hank Alexander attempts to cut it to the right down the fairway in hopes of a short approach shot. 120 Sports

Rain or Resurfacing? a We put more time and effort into our matches than our record shows. -Beth McCown “Is it raining again?” “You mean they’re still resurfac- ing the courts?” The April showers and attempts to im- prove the courts at the Country Club made it next to impossible to play tennis. These obstacles were over- come however, and the Girls’ Varsity even pro- duced a 6-3 record. The girls’ first loss was to a tough Leon team. This was the only team they lost to twice. New opponent, Flor- ida High, proved to be Varsity Gir s Tennis Team.Front row:Katherine Hinson, Cammie Schroeder, and Karen Hayes. Back row.Amy Cur- ry, Christi Adams, Mary Katherine Gregory, Jennifer Smith, and Michelle Irwin. After winning the spin of the racquet, Bill Higdon chooses first serve against Fla. High hoping for an advantage that never materialized. Catching her Mac lay opponent off guard. Cammie Scroeder re- turns cross-court during a disappoint- ing district match. 122 Sports tougher than expected, and the team came away with a 3-4 loss. Due to the injury of their number one player, Florida High was defeated when the two teams met again. Both matches against Maclay were cancelled, but the girls played the Maraud- ers in district play. The slow job of resurfacing led to playing three away matches in one week. The final match against Madison was played on the resurfaced courts.
