Many of our players, including some on varsity, have never played tennis before this year.  I’m proud of the way our team played in our first matches. Ryan, Kaitlyn, Caleb, and Skylar showed great promise in the first two matches. They will be the leaders of our team. As our other players get more experience, I expect them to be in the winning column.”
