The Law boys tennis team is gearing up for its spring season.

The team is led by senior captains Dean O’Donnell and Sean Luxeder. 

“My goal for the team is to make States and go farther than we did last year,” Head Coach Mr. Wood said. “We need some players to take on new roles. If this happens we will be successful.”

The team is focused on making the State Tournament again this season.

“Competing at States is our biggest goal,” Luxeder said. “We should be more improved from last year.”

The team starts their season April 5 at Xavier.

“I’m very excited for the season to start,” junior Santiago Peganos said. 

Preparing for their first match, the team is motivated, focused and ready to take on the challenges ahead.

The team’s young players are expected to play a large role this season. With a mix of experienced upperclassmen and rising underclassmen the roster has good potential.

“I’m looking forward to big improvements from our sophomore and juniors,” Wood said. “I think that good leadership from captains Sean Luxedor and Dean O’Donnell will help us.”

With strong leadership, young talent, and a clear goal in mind, the team is prepared to make a statement this season.

“I think that we can make States and compete with other schools,” O’Donnell said. “The team looks good this year.”

The team finished their season 9-11 last year and hopes to improve this year. This year, they aim to win the close matches and strengthen their overall play.

“The goal for the season is to make States and improve our players skills,” sophomore Pierce Marini said.

The team has welcomed a few new players this season looking to make an impact. 

“I’m excited for my first season with the tennis team,” sophomore Arnav Saxena said. “I’m ready to work hard and help the team succeed.”
