FINDING replacements for these two indiv iduals wont be easy but each school has a tradition to uphold and the successor for these two have some big shoes to fill. By DAVE WIGHAM - A mixture of youth and experience are the feature of the Clearfield tennis club. The Falcons feature five seniors, three juniors and six freshmen on their tennis roster THE THING that makes Coach Thorne happy about this situation is that the competition in practice is so keen that it prepares his club better for the region matches. Junior Todd Rankin holds down the number one singles spot and this seems to be the only certainty on the club each week. NUMBER two singles looks to be senior Lyle Cunning, a vastly improved player who takes his game seriously. r Number three singles is a battle between senior Neal Wayment and sophomore Kevin Nishijima. Each week these two stage challenge matches with each taking turns winning, they are that close. fea- tures senior Gary Phillips with either partnered or Nishijima. Wayment Whichever one of those two isnt playing singles teams with Phillips in doubles. This makes it rough for the Falcons to get any consistency out of the doubles. Number two doubles isnt any clearer than the first doubles team as each week three people fight for the two spots.
