“Before the season even starts, the girls tennis players find it very important to become the best they can as early as they can.

“We have been working really hard all summer long,” coach Nick Sisson said.

With all of the hard work put in this summer, the tennis team can look “forward to a successful season,” Sisson said.

Sisson insisted that because of the talent possessed by the team and the work put into the summer, that they will be a tougher team this year.

“We have many freshmen who have been working during the off season,” he said.

Fall Preview: Football

Illistration by Cody Mick

“Right through the brutal heat of the summer, the football team has been preparing for the move up to AVCTL

“Division I is the best football league in the state,” head Coach Brent Glann said.

This is a big change for the Railers, but Glann is optimistic.

“If we can be successful at this schedule, we can play with anybody,” Glann said.

The team’s goal has been to improve daily and focus on not letting outside distractions get in the way.

“If we do that, the wins and losses will take care of themselves,” Glann said.

The boys will play against a challenging group of teams, the toughest being Hutchinson, McPherson and Emporia.

Glann said the thing he is most looking forward to in the upcoming months is “how this team competes, week in and week out, against what could be the toughest schedule this school has ever played.”

The varsity boys start their season Sept. 3 against Maize at Fischer Field.
