Why does Xavier Prep have such a strong varsity tennis
program?
It is because the girls start playing at a young age and
continue to refine their skills when they become Gators.
Coach Laurie Martin’s no-cut freshman program appears to be
flourishing once again in 2016.
The Gators’ “Blue’’ team faced Gilbert Perry at the Stark
Tennis Center on Wednesday (Sept. 7) and earned a 9-0 victory.
The Blue team was due to face Chandler Basha at XCP on
Thursday (Sept. 8) with the “White’’ team traveling to Perry.
Xavier lists 73 players on 10 color-coded teams. The players
range in skill level from those with experience to some learning the game for
the first time. The top players represent XCP on the Blue and the White.
Results from the Blue win over Perry . . .
