We got to watch Ladyjack tennis yesterday in their 5-2 loss to ULM. Freshman Paula Cerda, from Klein HS, won her match at the one spot in straight sets. The girl she beat whined, complained, and attempted to cheat on scores and line calls. Cerda kept her cool, and simply outplayed her. Met her dad at the match. He was calm during the match, and then apologized for being emotional after it ended. Fun to see.
The facilities are going to get much needed improvements. The court surfaces are in terrible shape. They are getting close to being unsafe. Weather has delayed getting them done. Current target is during spring break, weather permitting. The scoreboard is getting a makeover. It was supposed to be done before yesterday, but the contractor didn't get it done.
This program is moving in the right direction. The team is young with one senior, and one junior. Good facilities with needed improvements being made.
