It was a Tuesday afternoon, on October 1 5, and the wind was blowing moderately. The girl ' s varsity tennis team had recently suf- fered a loss from San Gorgonio, and they were ready to take on the challenge of Palm Springs. Rubidoux had never beaten Palm Springs; however, on October 1 5, they made history. For the first time ever, the varsity team beat Palm Springs with a score of 10-8. It was a thrilling moment and we were proud to have achieved such success. said Lisa Caro. Part of the credit for their continuous win- nings goes to the fact that the whole team took private tennis lessons during the summer. In addition to those lessons, the team practiced twice a week during the summer, and three times a week during the season. The two re- maining days were occupied by tennis matches. Their devotion, and their desire to win, helped them to do so very well. Gladys Casillas, number one singles player and Norma Casillas and Jenny Bilyeu, the number one doubles team, were the most im- portant assets to the team. They led the team to a 13-5 record. We have a lot of potential as well as a lot of talent on the team, the girls have worked very hard against their competition and they still came out trying e ven harder. added Coach Joan Bruce. The whole team agreed that this was an especially great team because along with winning against Palm Springs for the first time, they also beat Redlands for the first time. The tennis team was proud of their perfor- mance throughout this season. e 2. Keeping a sharp view on the ball, Kim Freeman iirmiy racguet to serve. Freeman was a third year veteran. 3.

w mging I t When it came to winning, the freshman football team was no stranger to success. This will be one of the best frosh football teams ever to come to Rubidoux, were the words of Coach Harrison Cole. He was right. The frosh football team went undefeated this year. Since their first game, the frosh football team has displayed their unsurpassed talent as many individuals working together to form a top notch football team. The frosh team was lead by Geoii Holt, John Meany, Jeff Huerta, and Marty Cano. Their offense was as tough as their defense, and their defense was always intense. They showed their aggression with their consisten- cy and determination accepting nothing less than perfection. Marty Cano described his team as very physical and said, Defense is dominating. The team found themselves to be physical and abusing. In addition, to excellent coach- ing, the frosh defense was another factor of the teams many victories. The JV football team improved everyday. Unfortunately, their record didn ' t show their effort. We have a lot of potential to be a winning team, but we have to stick together, commented Manuel Quesada. If they won or lost, the team showed sportsmanship. e Freshman Football. Front row: Joe Hellerman, Rich- ard Naccarato, Willie Redmond. Isaac Knox.
