“I am disappoint­ed that the city has not provided equitable opportunit­ies for our tennis teams and secured courts for us as promised,” said 9-year coach Tish Ehnot. “We will continue to rebuild with strong senior leadership and have six returning players to fill key spots in the lineup.

“We have an experience­d and athletic group of juniors who are on track to develop into more advanced, competitiv­e players. We also have 10 underclass­men trying out.”

Ehnot pointed to key singles players senior Gabby Lanza and juniors Maddy Fitzner, Whitney Andrew and Olivia Lapham. Key doubles players include seniors Kim Chambers, Lisa Tipton and Alena Monarca, plus juniors Mariah Monroe, Jess Hart and Caitlin Kozlowski.

The team was 4-10 in 2016.
