2018 Basic Girls Tennis Capsule

BASIC

League: Class 4A Desert

Head coach: Bart Black, 21st season

2017 record: 5-7 (5-5 4A Sunrise/sixth)

Returning letter winners: Six

Top athletes: Tjaden Giles (Jr.), Miki Berg (Sr.), Macayla Schopp (Sr.), Sydney Black (Jr.)

Outlook: The Wolves return six letter winners from a squad that split its 10 league matches.

Giles, who finished 23-5 and advanced to the Sunrise Region quarterfinals in singles, and Berg (18-10, round of 16 in region singles) return to guide the squad. Schopp and Black also are back after playing on the top two doubles teams.

“Not a lot of experience,” Bart Black said. “We’re hoping to improve as the season progresses and perhaps win a match or two in the newly-expanded playoff structure.”
