Varsity tennis has been played at three different periods in the history of Alabama Christian athletics. The first time was in the early 80’s and we looked back 40 years and caught up with a member of the 1981 tennis team, Angie Allen Dickson. Angie was a key member of the girls tennis team and was nominated for the Hitchcock Award in her senior year.
