Council Honors Tam Girls Tennis Team

Hawks ended their stellar season by getting to the semifinal round of the Northern California team tennis championships and landing a recording of 29-2, including 26 straight wins.

It takes one of the most remarkable runs in recent sports history to land an honor from outside the sports world.

The Tam High girls tennis team did just that Monday night, garnering a proclamation from the Mill Valley City Council for its historic season, which included a whopping 26 straight wins on its way to a and a after successfully petitioning to move up a division.

The team in the semifinal round of the Norcals on Nov. 19, capping a season that coach Bill Washauer called "just enormous ... we’ve never had a season like this."

So wish I could be there for the Memorial Day Parade and picnic. I used to join in the fun forRead More years!

I guess I can't hit the enter button because that submits the post so from now on (until they fixRead More the problem), all of my posts will be one paragraph. What Angelina did was her choice, based on the multi-billion dollar per cancer industry, and by the people that like do unnecessary surgeries to line their pockets. Ask one of those male doctors if he is willing to have his testicles removed "just in case" he might get testicular cancer in the future. I'll bet that they would laugh at anyone who proposed that question. There are many ways that people can take care of their bodies to prevent cancer, like taking vitamin D, magnesium, selenium, turmeric and many more anti-inflammatory herbs. Also diet and environmental factors play a role in the pre-disposition to get cancer. In most cases, genes only play about a 5% role in a chance of inheriting or contracting cancer. But this big business of cancer research doesn't want hear about anything else besides expensive pharmaceutical drugs and surgery, anything else would threaten their business model. This post is a test of the new Patch commenting system.

Yes, and she also announced that she is considering having her ovaries removed also.

Thanks Jim W. for your reply and explaining things to us. I look forward to a new Patch where peopleRead More are more considerate of other's opinions. I hope the new filters get rid of the hacker/trolls. And by the way, if you don't port over the comments about the transgender shower sharing article that I glanced at last night, you will be doing all of us a favor !

Thanks Rico. You make great points. We had a bit of a tech glitch in that some content from earlierRead More this week did not migrate over yet to the new sites - but it'll all be there soon. And yes, we'll have more info on how to navigate the site. I'll direct you here with any specific questions for now: https://patchsupport.zendesk.com/home But if that doesn't cover it or if you'd prefer to ask me, feel free - happy to help. And that goes for anyone out there with a question about how to get around on the new site.
