I have been given the opportunity to coach both the Boys and Girls Hixson High School Tennis Teams. Hixson Tennis has a rich tradition, and I am committed to getting both these teams competitive again. I run a no-cut program, and I will do my best to ensure that everyone learns the foundations of a sport they will likely play for a lifetime. More importantly, I will strive to teach these boys and girls about integrity, honesty and character.

Our Trip to Dayton.



I think the best thing that happened on our trip to Dayton this year, is we got a little team bonding time at our first joint team dinner of the year. I really thought our boys had a chance to win this one, but it was not in the cards. I knew the girls were in for a tough day. Five of the lady Golden Eagles are either juniors or seniors. They are an experienced and well-coached team.

In the end, this is a non-district match, and a great opportunity for our kids to play some good players.

Here are the results:

Rhea County Girls def. Hixson Girls 9-0

Girls Singles:

Kelci Fredrick def. Candace Cline 8-1
Kaylee Argo def. Whitney Clack 8-4

Melanie Johnson def. Abby O'Rear 8-1

Girls Doubles:

Fredrick/Argo def. Cline/Clack 8-1

Up Next: Tuesday, April 19, Lookout Valley @ Home. Both the boys and girls got a win last year, I expect the same this year.
