Tennis team advances to regionals

The Leopard tennis team took second in the district tournament Wednesday becoming the first Leopard sports team to qualify for regionals in 4A.

Tuesday afternoon the Leopards beat the Denison Yellow Jackets 10-6 to guarantee their place in the regional tournament and setting up a district finals match against the McKinney North Bulldogs.

The Leopards, who beat the Bulldogs earlier this season, 11-8,  went ahead 4-3 after doubles, but were unable to hold the lead.

A loss in a pivotal girls singles match turned the tide for McKinney North allowing the Bulldogs to win 10-6.

The Leopards begin regional play next Friday in Grapevine.

Samantha Wendt, Managing Editor
Initially, the legendary snack cabinet and promise of courtside Mavericks tickets lured Senior Samantha Wendt to the newspaper class. Wendt enjoys experimenting with dessert recipes, and sometimes spends upwards of 6 hours making a decadent dessert. Even more than food, Wendt worships the Dallas Mavericks. She idolizes NBA Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki, and knows every single statistic and happening within the Mavericks organization. In the 1st grade Wendt alternated between studying the biographies of the first 42 US Presidents and learning Russian. In 4th grade, she progressed to mapping out the rest of her life; she decided to travel to every single country in the world for a year after college, become a spy for the President, take a bullet in the leg for the President which would led to her subsequent two-term election, and become a college professor until she dies. Now, Wendt has made her life plan more achievable, and aspires to join the FBI.
