K 2 ' r -r 3 .. C T s 1 s a Keeping the Ball Boun ing How does a team finish first in league for six years in a row? Accord- ing to IV Tennis Coach Bill Cline, it takes long hours of practice. The coach and the players were appar- ently willing to put out this effort in order to capture their seventh straight championship, for they prac- ticed not only after school, but also on Saturdays and rainy days. With four returning lunior Varsity players, the team expected to be very strong in league. However, Coach Cline stated, ln addition to working for an undefeated season, another of our goals is to develop varsity players for next year. We've also been trying many players in new positions look- ing for possible combinations!! At the Frosh-Soph level, the pri- mary goal forthe players was to improve their tennis skills to a com- petitive level as a team and individu- ally. Coach Howard Alcosser claimed, Every team member will play in every match, thereby getting experi- ence in a competitive situation. A team's achievements are often thought to be reflections of a coach's dedication and knowledge. The Frosh-Soph and IV coaches both seemed to hold these qualities and demonstrated them in their duties as coaches. Coach Alcosser and Coach Cline organized practices and matches for the teams, worked on uniforms and equipment, plus set up fundraisers, such as the Tennis-spon- sored car wash. Basically, the coaches had the responsibility to keep the ball bouncing. Q M XB' ergers oys lunior Varsity!Frosh-Soph Tennis

There was hope for Coach Sue Boyette's Varsity softball team to cap- ture the Sierra League championship once again. With the help of only two seniors, captains Sheila Freeman and Michelle Sirchia, this team was well equipped with young and aggressive players. Sheila was selected MVP and made first team All-League. Two returning players made second team All-League in 1979, Ronda Dalthorp and Nettie Morris. Ronda was also named most outstanding infielder while Nettie earned the most hits award. Moving up from JV to fill spots vacated by graduating players were Katt Buchanan, Brenda Stubbs, Tracy Dal- thorp and Donna Waska. Hopeful stars, Shawna Bryan, Linda Alamprese, julie Telford and the rest of the IV team soon found that Coach Leon Mountain's key to success was lots of running and drills on skills. It was felt by Nettie Morris,Varsity soft- ball player, that the team was being well conditioned. She said, 'fEvery time I look up, I see those suckers running!'fQ Y Varsity Softball. front row: Coach Sue Boy- ette, Katt Buchanan, Rhonda Weyer, Kathy Collins, Nina Gildersleeveg second row: Kelli Frederickson, Sheila Freeman, Cimera Crom- well, Tracy Dalthrop, Michelle Sirchia, third row: Lorraine Marquez, Mende Neeleman, Barbara Upham, Ronda Dalthorp, Brenda Stubbs, Dana Tweedie, Nettie Morris, Debbie Truex, coach Pete Massaro.
