Back Row: Vincent Pachel, Terry Parsons, Joel Vernon and Sharon Hickman. Look out Wimbledon! For a young team, the Stone High Tennis Team, is a suprising group of competitors. Last year our team visually impressed teams from Long Beach, Moss Point, Ocean Springs, Harrison Central and Bay St. Louis with their good sportsmanship and athletic ability. We expect another good showing this year since there is a good deal of new talent on the team. As our singles player, Holly Cox needs to keep her swingin arm in shape. All Teed Off Are you teed off? Is your life filled with traps and pitfalls? Do you feel you spend most of your time chasing insignificant objects, only to have them fall into a hole somewhere? If that what's troubling you, then maybe the Stone High Golf Team is for you. The golf team, organized last spring, is already making a name for itself. The team came in fourth in its first tournament, but captured both second and third places in the second tournament, the A team placing third and B team, second. This year members are planning to host a tournament at Pine Burr.Front Burr. Front Row: Terry Parsons, Don Scarborough, Tim Purvis. Back Row: Paul Dorsett and Vernon Bunch. SportslTennis 84 Golf 105
