Head Tennis Coach Casey Burton is excited for the possibility of a return trip to Waco this spring to compete in the TAPPS 4-A State tournament. “We have more seniors this year, more seasoned players, but also the promise of several new additions,” she said. “As with any facet of life, our focus will be on foundational principles and quality of play.” Coach Burton will look to Seniors Tyler Tolopka and Kellie Keese to front leadership responsibilities, and seasoned tennis player and volunteer assistant Coach, Miss Emalee Burton to bring her knowledge and experience to practice and competition.
“Tyler went to state last season. This will be his senior year, and I anticipate a return trip to Waco,” explained Coach Burton. “Kellie is going to be fun to watch this year. Last season, she stepped out of doubles to attempt single rounds—it was a brilliant move for her! And I’m thrilled to have Emalee with us. She is just as excited as we are for this year’s competition!”
