Taym Ali has also had a near perfect record this season at 2 singles. Jett Casarez ended his Middle School career at 1 singles with never losing a singles match. 8th graders on the team include: Alex Kachman the Duck King, Camden Starks, Chloe Crowe (who is, on the record old), Colton Heil, Drake Lepper, Izzie Koehler, Jamison Grammar, Jett Casarez (the man, the myth, the nonchalant legend), Kason Messer, Lucas Russell (who loves Tennis more than Track), Maizen Culp (the rizzler), Mason Miller, Mi'Leya Cochran (who thinks she's Mrs. Eddy's favorite), Noah Martin, Nolan Erskine, Patrick Klien (who loves tennis more than cross country), Shelby Barnes (who always did it for Cinco), Sophia Ruiz & Sydney Dickert (the wonder twins), and Tucker Ware who I will never ever forget.
