Munson, D. Munson, R. Tarbox, and Mr. A. Petrongolo, Coach, halt at the net, racquets in hand, ' just before the fray. The spring of 1956 unveiled Tappan Zee's first team to participate in P.S.A.L. tennis competition. Although the key men of the squad were not novices to the sport., they were, for a large part, innocent of competition experience. Despite this handicap, the racquetmen emerged with a creditable record for their first season, coming out with 22 games won, 26 lost. The team was hurt by the loss of Terry Tumulty to baseball, but strong man Butch Flobeck., was backed up creditably by Jeff Munson, Bill Wallace, Tom Hurban, and Don Munson. In their baptism of fire, the team was a credit to Coach Petrongolo. GOLF The tradition of Tappan Zee's golf team, since the introduction of the sport to the school as P.S.A.L. competition, has been victory. The '56 squad lived up to that record by completing the season without losing one match. This marked the fifteenth consecu- tive year that the Dutchmen have won the Rockland County P.S.A.L. Golf Championship. Although they did not fare as well in state competition, Coach Matt Rotelliis greensmen did win the Section 9 title. Row 1: C. Reilly, C. Codello, P. Evers.

. . . of feminine grace. All weaving isn't done at the loom. In basketball, sometimes it changes the score. '61 can't do itll' is an often heard expres- sion in gym classes when Mrs. V. Fitzpatrick challenges the girls to increase their athletic prowess. While so doing, baseball, volleyball, basketball and badminton are but a few of the competitive sports the girls enjoy. The G.A.A. whose purpose is to foster further interest and participation in physical activities has set up an extensive intramural program wherein girls having more than ordin- ary interest participate and earn letters. G. Guglielmello releases an under- hand foul shot. Defense awaits the result. i tlte al 57
