Head Coach Alyssa Butler and her 2017 Lady Titan tennis team looks to get past their youth and surprise people by showing them how hard they have worked and how much time  they have put it on the court during the offseason.

After only losing one senior this past season, the Lady Titans boast a very young team on the court, with three 8th graders on the team and the highest upperclassmen being a junior.

Junior Avery Thompson is the veteran on the team and Coach Butler is looking for her to set an example and be a leader for the younger group.

“We are in a rebuilding mode after losing a very good senior last season in Kyleigh Murray,” said Butler. “These  girls come out everyday and they try hard and they have high expectations for themselves and for this team.”
