Rene’s Take

Something happened to the  Caribou girls tennis team last week that hadn’t happened since 1992. The team lost a regular season tennis match. The Vikings successs is almost unheard of in the State of Maine. Stearns basketball teams of the 1960’s with George Wentworth at the helm, John Donato’s Houlton Shiretowners girls basketball teams of the 1980’s and early 90’s had long winning streaks and success in Regional and State Competition, but neither team went 14 years without a regular season loss. John Habeeb’s Vikings also had success in Eastern Maine and State Tournaments. The team won State Titles in four straight years from 1992 to 95 and also captured four other Eastern Maine Titles including the last two years. The success shows a committmet to the program from Coach Habeeb to the members of the team who strived to live up to the success of their predecessors. 

Congratluations Caribou on your success in tennis and here’s to many more tennis banners hanging in the Caribou gym.
