The team finished with a 6-4 (6-5 overall) record.

It saw its largest turnover of players – as far as starters lost, from the previous season.

“We replaced six of nine starters,” Underkoffler said. “Some of the guys who played last year moved up in the lineup … and we had some players in the lineup who never played tennis before.”

With so many new players, Underkoffler said he had to make some adjustments to find who fit in the best singles and doubles spots.

“It took awhile. The last few weeks of the season we finally got the lineup set,” he added.

The team will only graduate one player – Daniel Thompson.

“They put the work in this season and got better, and they had a lot of fun doing it,” Underkoffler said. “They were committed. They wanted to get better. The last match they played hard. I’m happy with how close it was. I’m proud of the kids.”
