After dropping its first five

meets in closely contested match–

es, the boys' tennis team went on a

tear, smashing three straight op–

ponents. Though dropping the last

meet of the year, the team finished

with strong performances through–

out the line-up.

The players turned in some im–

pressive results — Andy Oh went

undefeated until the very last meet

of the year at number one singles.

Individual effort could be credited

for every success on the court.

Coach Chris Kawa led the team

through routine drills and exer–

cises, but he allowed the team to

make progress on their own as they

worked to improve.

Next year's team promises to

yield more success as the players

continue to improve their skills.

"It's kind of funny to think that w<

even had a team, with so few people

but I'm glad we did — it was fun!'

said an enthusiastic Eleanore Kin

about this year's girls' tennis season

Although there was a lack of player;

for the team, team spirit and attitude

more than made up for it. This petite

motley crew did its best against some

really tough, experienced competi

tion.

Coach Chris Kawa gave the girls

the freedom to have fun in practice;

and meets. This looseness may noi

have resulted in a spectacular record

but the team turned in good effort!

with every swing of the racquet. With

some effort over the summer and the

same attitude, next year should yielc

a much stronger team.
