2017 Foothill Girls Tennis Capsule

FOOTHILL

League: Class 4A Sunrise

Head coach: Matt Iglitz, 12th season

2016 record: 5-8 (4-6 Southeast, fourth)

Returning letter winners: Five

Top athletes: Kristel Peralta (So.), Abby Flinders (Jr.), Isabelle Hanon (Fr.)

Outlook: The Falcons bring back five letter winners from a team that qualified for the playoffs.

“We have an interesting mix of both experience and inexperience on this year’s team,” Iglitz said. “We have potential, but we also have a long road ahead of us as a team. Our five returning lettermen have all played a significant number of high school tennis matches, however we also have several players not only new to high school tennis, but new to the game of tennis.

“We will do our best to improve on a daily basis with the primary goal of reaching the region tournament.”
