Tennis is one of the sports which has a strong tradition at HHS. The season began this year with one week of conditioning prior to participating in tryouts.
“I really like how hard guys were working on conditioning practices,” coach Justin Fainter said.
“This season’s goal is to win the districts again, try to win a regional championship and play well in states,” Fainter said.
The first days of tryouts were more about shoveling skills as the team had to clean the snow off the courts, but after that, it was all about tennis. The tennis team should be very strong again. Scott Measell and Andy Shisler are both ready to roll.
“This season should be good! We have four out of six people from last year’s top six. Fainter said.
Last year’s number four player Scott Measell will be one of the key players again. His personal goal is to be the number one seed this year and beat every team that HHS will face.
“It was a lot of fun last year and we won many games, but I hope that we will be even better this year,” Measell said.
Andy Shisler is looking forward to playing, too.
“I want to be in the top six players this year because I could not make it last year. It was a great learning experience,” Shisler said.
He wants to get in better shape. Both of them want to win all of the games this year.
Fainter thinks that Measell, sophomore Jack Burden, and senior Ian Frazier will be the biggest stars of the team. Senior Stefan Peric should be good, too.
