Next Year's Prospects

With the addition of Mertz to
Coach Gordon Burris' tennis
team, Virginia will once again be
favored to go undefeated in state
competition.

Mike Eikenberry, returning
Captain, should be at his best in
his fourth year, and will be ready
to defend his number one singles
spot.

Jeff Podesta, the victim of seven
3-set losses this year, should profit
from his year's rough experiences
as well as a vigorous
summer's tennis, to defend his
number two spot.
