-3 1 MacDonald, Jarard to state For the second year in a row, two players from the boys tennis team competed in the state tournament. Playing doubles, senior Doug Jarard and freshman Chris MacDonald won sec- tionals which advanced them to the state touma- ment in Mt. Prospect. While Jarard played at state for the second year in a row, MacDonald exper- ienced his first state compe- tition as a freshman. In the double elimination touma- ment, they won two of four matches. Although the competition was tough, I was pleased with the way Chris and I played since it was the farthest anyone had advanced at state, stated Jarard.

Team imp oves by 22 po 'nts With an increase of 22.5 points in meet results the boys' varsity gymnastics team improved in perfor- mance during the season. Our won-loss record does not show the work and effort put in by the team be- cause we still met many of the best teams in the state, said Coach Frank Walsh. We came from a 95 start to a ll7 finish which is our highest score in the last four years. A top scorer was Noel Mil- zarek, a senior, who was third at Conference on par- allel bars with a score of 7.25. ln Regionals he was 5th with a 7.2 on the hon- zontal bar and 9th with a 6.6 on the parallel bars. These scores put him in - J- V'-3 7 . .t....,..h..... the top ten, and he ad- vanced to Sectionals where he was 9th with a score of 7.45 on the horizontal bar. We suprised a lot of peo- ple especially me, when we scored ll7. The team worked together and did the best for the season, said Noel. High scores for the sea- son were Dion Hunter 8.0 in free exercise and 8.5 on vault, Lou Debs 7.65 on side horse, Tom Daugharty 7.4 on still rings, Randy Lichnerowicz 6.7 on paral- lel bars and 5.2 in all- around, and Milzarek 7.65 on horizontal bar. The freshman team fin- ished with a record of 0-6 and the sophomore team with a 4-8 record. Top: Dion Hunter, a high scorer throughout the season, performs a front no-hand flip.
