The Lady Eagles return senior Briar Vona and a pair of All-Conference

play better than she did last year.” Wiseman recognizes the ups-and-downs of leading a young team.

“They are inexperienced,” said Wiseman “We have one senior and the

rest are sophomores and freshmen. You never know what you are going to

get.ButIguessthatcanalsobethepositiveinasensethattheycanwin

matches they shouldn’t win. They don’t know any better.”

Wiseman has been pleased with the team’s attitude and intensity.

“We have upped the intensity at our practices,” said Wiseman. “There is

more internal motivation than there has been in the past. We have worked a

lotonbeingphysicallyfitandwithourteamchemistry.Teamchemistrycan

occasionally pull out a tight victory.” With the program being so close to post-season play the last two seasons,

Wiseman hopes the team’s preparation will pull them through the rigors of

the American Southwest Conference.

2011 Men’s Preview Head Coach Shaun Wiseman expects a talented freshmen class to lead

the 2011 men’s tennis team.“Ifullyexpectthefreshmentobetheleadersonthecourt,”saidWiseman

“That is not to take away anything from Tom Lowe or Tyler Wilson. Tyler will

get some time in the lineup. He gives you everything he has on match day.

Tomismakingstridestobeateamleader.Ifhecankeepimprovinghewill

do well.” The youth movement is part of the program making strides, according to

Wiseman. “Ithinkitissafetosaythatthisisthebestmen’steamwehavehadhere,”

saidWiseman.“Wearemakinggreatstrides.Iexpectthisteamtomakea

jumpthisyear.Itismyhopethatwewillbecompetitiveagainstthebetter

teamsintheconference.Ithinkthisteamiscapableofit.Whethertheywill

be able to do it as freshmen, that will just have to play out over the course of

the season.” Wiseman expects two freshmen to play No. 1 and No. 2 singles.

“Jason Morgan will play No. 1 and Trevor Scott is No. 2,” said Wiseman.

“They are both hard workers. They are higher level tennis players than we’ve

had. They are great athletes and great tennis players. Scott Eibes and

Michael Skimbo are both freshmen that will contribute, too.”

With improved talent, the goal is still to qualify for spot in the post-season.

“Our goal is make the conference tournament,” said Wiseman. “We have

someguysthatwillneedtooverachievetogetthere.Wecantasteit.Ithink

we surprised some opponents in the fall. We are better than we were last

year.”
