Netters Have Ace Season Q With strong players and excellent depth Coach Grissom was pleased with this year's varsity team. We had a much more experienced team. They were older and seemed to be much stronger players. Coach Grissom comments, I'm very pleased with the IV prospects. They should be able to really help us for next year's varsity team. Vista talks with Anne Fulton '79, VISTA: What does tennis do for you mentally? ANNE: Mentally, tennis is good for me, except for when I lose a point I get mad at myself. VISTA: Do you ever get dis- couraged on the courts? ANNE: I get very discouraged. Some times I feel like just hanging up tennis for good, but I don't. VISTA: What do you think of when you're playing tennis? ANNE: I try to think of noth- ing but tennis. I try to con- centrate as much as possible. VISTA: What are your plans for tennis when you graduate? ANNE: I haven't decided. I will either try to make a col- lege team or quit. Team, bottom row, L to R: L. Ridenour, D. McGee, M. Drachman.

Optimism Dominates Season .There was so much optimism in the air before the season, that varsity baseball caoch, Art Acosta, stated, If everythingqfalls into place, I don't thin it's unrealistic to win the state championship. But first, on the loca level, the Sabers had to put away East league rivals, Sahuaro and Palo Verde. The varsity club was dominated by stron hitting and good, solid fielding. The only questionable aspect was pitching. Coach Acosta was confident that his hurlers, lim Grossman '78, Mark Lavigne '79, and Thad Fillman '79, would successfully do the job once they stepped on the pitcher's mound. Leading the offensive attack was senior slugger Ken Reinhart, who led the team in many batting areas. Other outstanding players included Doug Kindall 78, Steve Rumic '78, joe Gwozdz '78, and Ralph Alfano '79. In a conversation with VISTA, second baseman Doug Kindall talks about the season. VISTA: How did you prepare for the upcoming season? DOUG: Besides working hard in practice everyday, most of us played American Legion baseball together this past summer. VISTA: Did you have a preseason outlook? DOUG: Yes, I really thought that this would be Sabino's year in baseball. I had hoped our hard work over the last couple of years would pay off. 1.
