Maria and Susan Thomson back and two of our overage players Maureen and Nancy are taking up Actons the only town in the county that didnt have its own this year Miss Pool related with a smile of an Seriously the junior girls surprised a lot of teams that had written Acton off as pushovers including the Perdue five which was forced into a sudden death playoff with Milton after losing to AHS the
