2012 Chaparral Boys Tennis Capsule

Head coach: Matthew Balodis, second season

2011 record: 9-2 (7-1 Northeast)

Top players: Matthew Terry (Sr.), Nick Hansen (Jr.), Abe Ibrarra (Sr.), Brian Moya (Sr.), Zack Harmon (Sr.)

Outlook: The Cowboys return only two players from a team that finished second in the Northeast League last season.

“It’s the first time in five years that we are in a rebuilding stage,” Balodis said. “We have a lot of first-year players.

“Our goal will be to make the playoffs for the sixth straight year. It won’t be easy, but hopefully we can be competitive.”
