Varsity Tennis

By: Jaydyn Ramsey and Jordyn Sacco

“To inspire the youth of Ralston,” says
senior Shawn Callen, when asked why he
decided to play Tennis. This year’s tennis

season at Ralston has gone exceptionally well
with teammates with Shawn and Max Prochaska
making it to state. Though they did lose at state

they still had a very strong season all around.
When asked how his season went, Callen
revealed, “All around it was pretty great.
Actually I made it to the second round of state."

You may think that because Tennis is an
individual sport, that there is no teamwork or

support involved when it is in fact the opposite.
It’s clear that each teammate of the Tennis team
supports one another and encourages each
other. Which is clearly a factor that got them

as far as they've come in this past year.
“ My favorite part about my teammates is
their ability to stay together as a team no matter

the outcome of our matches.”
Showing that even through their losses and
wins, they support each other as a team and
carry one another's weight equally all the way

throughout the season.
Not only do they support one another but
they have learned to gain a great sense of

sportsmanship and how to handle their losses
properly.
This year has been quite captivating and
though we will miss our seniors next year we

cant wait to see what others have in store for us
in the next years to come.
