The best may be yet to come for Cooper tennis player Caroline Scott. With only a slight question in the order of seeding for the girls singles, both the Abilene High and Cooper tennis teams are primed and ready for the District 4-5A tennis tournament starting this morning at the San Angelo Central High School courts. Ashley Hawk talks like a tennis player with something to prove. Abilene High really likes the Abilene Independent School District Tournament.
Team tennis is no different than any other sport.
Coaches use the non-district season to prepare for the district campaign. Rebecca Watkins was one of the most promising tennis players to emerge from Abilene four years ago, earning a regional tournament berth her freshman year at Cooper. There were several doubles teams to which Caroline Scott and Morgan Smith thought they were capable of losing. Uh, excuse me. It already is.
