Unbeaten team tennis strives towards region

The varsity tennis team continued their winning streak with two victories over Frendship 15-4, and Plainview 19-0 at home Oct. 8.

Defending their district championship title from last year, they have a current district record of 203 matches won to 28 matches lost.  They are currently ranked 14th in the state.

“We’ve had a very successful fall season so far,” Coach Aaron Fuller said. “Our true test will be when we go down to Wichita Falls for regionals.”

After finishing last year undefeated in district and losing in the semifinals at regionals to Wichita Falls Old High, the team has an optimistic outlook on regionals this year.

 “We have a really good chance at winning regionals this year, seeing how our rival teams are weaker than usual,” senior Travis Gilliland said. “I think if we all go in with a positive attitude of winning, regardless of the past, we really can go to state.”

They wrap up their district season at home against Dumas at 9 a.m. and Palo Duro at 3 p.m. this Saturday. They will head to Wichita Falls Oct. 28 and 29 for team regionals.
