Last Friday, May 10, the JV tennis team participated in the 4A/5A District Championship. They all did very well, especially since they had to compete mostly against much larger 5A teams. It was a great opportunity for our JV athletes to see how well they could stack up against other JV opponents in our district. They were pleasantly surprised, to say the least!

Our best placements were Junior Reynel Eligio and Junior Michelle Gutierrez who placed 3^rd in Mixed Doubles, beating 3 different 5A teams to reach the podium. 

Junior Nich Henry & Freshman Daviahn Ervin, after an early setback against South Hills, didn't lose another match and came back to win the consolation bracket for Boys Doubles!

Likewise, Freshman Sebastian Lopez & Sophomore Isabel Alcala had a similar story with an early loss to South Hills but then won all remaining matches to clinch the consolation bracket in Mixed Doubles.

All in all, we have a lot to look forward to in the coming years of WHHS tennis! Congratulate to all the JV tennis players!!

Friday also marked the end of our very long season, and the end of Coach Soto's 15-year run as the beloved coach of WHHS tennis. Everyone involved with the tennis team is so very sad to see him go, but we are all grateful for the love and service he has given to the student-athletes of Western Hills over the years. We wish him all the best in the next chapter of his life! You will be greatly missed, Coach Soto!!

As always, thank you for your continued support,

Three outstanding young ladies, Jacky Mares, Estrella Arredondo, & Itzel Lopez, qualified to compete this week at the 4A Region Tennis Championship in Longview. 

All three played very well, facing some very tough opponents. Itzel was not actually even meant to play, attending as the 9-4A alternate. She had to step in, however, when the 9-4A #2 girls' single came down sick with the flu. Though her match score of 0-6, 0-6 doesn't show it, she handled herself quite well against the powerhouse, perennial state qualifier Anna High School.

Jacky (now a two-time Regional qualifier) and Estrella had a nail-biter first match against Dallas Pinkston, finally pulling away with the win with a match score of 6-2, 3-6, 6-2, only to face the Wills Point #2 girls' doubles team who were the second seed for the whole bracket and were only out-matched by their own teammates, the #1 girls doubles from Wills Point. We fell to Wills Point in the second round with a match score of 0-6, 0-6, but we're proud to say we held our own with great serves and some fantastic rallies against a team that will be moving on to compete at the state championship!

These girls competed against schools and programs that have many more resources than they have ever had, and they were able to prove they deserved a seat at the table! The next time you see any one of these three young ladies, be sure to congratulate them on all of their hard work and on their accomplishments this season.

On Monday, April 29 & Tuesday, April 30, the varsity tennis players competed in the Spring '24 district tournament against Eastern Hills, Carter Riverside, Diamond Hill-Jarvis, & Benbrook Middle School. Though we had some unexpected shortfalls, your Western Hills tennis team represented you well and brought home a good bit of hardware.

Of special note:
Jesus Alvizo - 4^th Boys Singles
Jessica Hernandez - 4^th Girls Singles
Roberto Torres - 4^th Boys Doubles
Jose Mendietta - 4^th Boys Doubles
Erick Perez - 3^rd Boys Singles
Elaina Montalvo - 3^rd Girls Singles
Jonathan Ramirez - 3^rd Boys Doubles
Kevin Jiminez - 3^rd Boys Doubles

And, finally, our Regional Qualifiers!!!!
Jacqueline Mares - 2^nd Girls Doubles
Estrella Arredondo - 2^nd Girls Doubles

Jacquie and Estrella will be traveling to Longview next week to try to qualify for state. Wish them both luck and congratulate all the tennis players on a great season!

The JV tennis team will play this coming Friday, May 3 at McLeland Tennis Center.

Every year, all Fort Worth ISD tennis teams meet at TCU for the Fort Worth City Championship. It is always a special tournament for the athletes as they get to experience college-level facilities on a beautiful campus, but it is also always a tough tournament as they must face off against much larger 5A - 6A schools. Though we didn't bring home all the hardware we would have liked last Friday, April 19, many of our Cougars made it deep into the bracket before succumbing to some very formidable opponents. 

Of special note is Erick Perez. Though he lost his very first match to 6A Paschal's #1 boys singles player, he bounced back and did not lose a single other match the entire day, winning the consolation bracket for boys singles. Congratulate him if you see him!

The WHHS Cougar Tennis team had a good day at their tournament on Wednesday, April 3, with 3 young men making it to the podium. 

Erick Perez made it all the way to the championship match in boys singles, but fell to Callisburg to bring home the silver medal. 

The podium fight for third place in boys' doubles was all green and gold as our own Roberto Torres & Jose Mendieta had to face off against teammates Kevin Jimenez & Jonathan Ramirez. Roberto & Jose ended up winning 6-3, but either way, Western Hills was going to win!

The rest of the team did quite well, too, with several coming up just short of the podium. Jesus Alvizo barely missed 3^rd place in boys singles, and Issac Street & Vianet Garcia barely missed 3^rd place in mixed doubles.

The problem with tournament tennis is that you can have a great day and still not have the final results you want; you can rack up a day's worth of Ws, and a single L sends you home empty-handed. That was the story yesterday, Wednesday, February 21, as many of your WHHS tennis players fought valiantly deep into medal territory but came up 1 game shy of the medal podium. 

Eight of our players made it all the way to the quarterfinals of their respective categories, playing against 20 different schools, many of which are regular attenders of the regional and state tournaments. Congratulate the following students for their outstanding performance yesterday: Jacky Mares & Estrella Arredondo - 4^th place in girls' doubles, Roberto Torres & Jose Mendietta - 4^th place in boys' doubles, John Portillo & Madi Allen - 4^th place in mixed doubles, and Elaina Montalvo - 4^th place in girls' singles.

And finally, be sure to congratulate Issac Street for his first ever podium placement with a third-place finish in boys' singles!

On Wednesday, February 14, the WHHS Tennis Team competed in its season opening tournament and had some big victories, both moral and literal. Several of our biggest wins came in the form of best-all-time performances, even though they didn't end with a medal placement. We did come home with some hardware, though, as six of our athletes received bronze medals (third place) in their tournament categories! 

Kevin Jiminez and Jonathan Ramirez placed third in Boys Doubles, Sam Chavez and Jessica Hernandez placed third in Girls Doubles, and Madi Allen and John Portillo placed third in Mixed Doubles!

Yesterday, Monday, October 9, marked the end of the fall season for your WHHS Cougar Tennis Team, during the Regions match against Panther Creek High School of Frisco. Overall, your tennis team had a great team season, ending with a very respectable 9W -5L record and placing 3^rd in our district. Unfortunately, our biggest opponent this season was the weather, which really interfered with our ability to practice, but this young team has improved greatly over the last four months and is already itching to get ready for the spring individual season. Be sure to congratulate all the tennis players on a great season and on all of their hard work!  

Yesterday, Tuesday, September 26, your Western Hills Cougars played their last match of Fall District play against the Benbrook Bobcats. Though we did not score the overall match points we needed to win as a team, we improved greatly since our last meeting with our friends down the street, and we had some very exciting matches with some big wins! Congratulate and encourage all the tennis players you know as they prepare for their next playoff match, tentatively scheduled for Monday, October 9.

The tennis team played the defending District Champs last night and played a tremendous match. Although we did not win, the kids showed major improvement. The weather has not been nice for us, but the team has persevered. We have a very young team this year, and we see many bright spots. The team has really bought into the "Cougar Up" mentality, regardless of the circumstances, and that has led to making it to the play-offs again.
