Jonathan Fender played 2nd singles last year, 2nd team SCOL; Brady Henry 1st doubles last year, 2nd team SCOL; Drew Moyer 1st doubles last year, 2nd team SCOL; Jack Romer 2nd doubles last year; seniors Jalen Douglas and Daniel Andrews have improved tremendously this year.

KEY NEWCOMERS

Freshman Brayden Rhoads moving up from the middle school club team has worked hard on his game. Also Brady Evans, Ryan Camp, Colt Smith, and Mason McIntosh have joined the team and bolstered our athleticism and brought some energy.

KEY PLAYERS LOST

Matt Keiter 1st singles last year, 1st Team SCOL

RIGHT NOW I LIKE

The team has a great energy and is excited about tennis. We are young but experienced thanks to the great work Cathy Fay has done with our middle school club team.

RIGHT NOW WE NEED TO IMPROVE

We just need to hit more balls. We haven’t been able to hit outside much due to the weather so timing is a bit off.

LEAGUE FAVORITE

Chillicothe and us. Miami Trace will be tough this year as well.
