MOAPA VALLEY

Head coach: Donna Swanson, ninth season

2013 record: 13-2 (12-0 Sunrise, first)

Returning lettermen: Seven

Top athletes: Andy Beckstrand (Jr.), Ethan Seely (Sr.), Koby Frei (Jr.), Riley Longman (Sr.)

Outlook: The Pirates return seven lettermen from a squad that ran the table in the Sunrise League.

Beckstrand was 15-5 in singles last year, and Seely (18-1), Frei (18-1) and Longman (14-4) all had a strong doubles season.

“Much potential comes with this team,” Swanson said. “Skills vary among seasoned athletes. We’re looking forward to building on capabilities and skills of new and seasoned athletes.

“We’re hoping to become contenders once again in semifinals and possibly advance to second or third round during state team and individual championships.”

Bishop Gorman's Mark Lapko is a member of the Nevada Preps All-Southern Nevada boys tennis team.
