2015 Faith Lutheran Boys Tennis Capsule

FAITH LUTHERAN

League: Division I Sunset

Head coach: Jeff Foley, fifth season

2014 record: 10-5 (5-3 Sunset, fourth)

Top athletes: Jack Stevens (Sr.), Brandon Brighi (Sr.), Matt Shuirman (Sr.), Hunter Kascur (Sr.)

Outlook: Stevens, who was a Southern Region quarterfinalist in singles last season, already owns the program's record for wins with 87.

Brighi and Shuirman teamed to advance to the quarterfinals in the region doubles tournament.

"With 10 seniors, this is the most experienced team Faith has ever fielded," Foley said. "Nine players are back who saw action in the team state semifinals in 2013, and the team has added in some quality freshmen and has a solid group of returning juniors and sophomores that are ready to push for time.

"The competition for starting spots will be intense," added Foley, who is hoping to return to the state tournament as a team.
