Freshmen newcomers Debbie Poole, who is ranked number nineteen in the state Girls' Fourteen Singles, and Melissa Worrich, were invaluable, both as single players and as a doubles team. lt was a privilege to play on varsity as a freshman. It has been a fun experience, and l hope we continue to excel, said Melissa Worrich. The Cougars had a very close season. ln an early win over Marshall, the two schools were tied in mat- ches 9-9, but Clark won by sets 22-20. Poole's and Worrich's victory over Sanchez and Gonzales was the deciding factor. This type of close-match play continued throughout the season. The results were not always This has been the most intense year that l have ever seen the guys go through, said David Cuellar. One of the team's strong points this year, was the exceptional leadership displayed by the seniors. Be- ing on the Clark tennis team these past four years has taught me a lot about dedication and hard work, said Karen Kaminsky. Senior Tommy Alfano said, I had a lot of fun play- ing on the team, because I made a lot of new friends, and I became better friends with the ones l already had.
