2009:Year of the Cowboys???
Personally, I think it just might be Wyoming's year next year.
The singles will actually improve from this past year, due to Max Hennessy's recovery from his ankle injury. The first and second singles players will move down to play two and three. The Line-up should be:
1S Max Hennessy
2S Mason Bourbon
3S Gustav Plattenburg
The Doubles keeps 3 out of 4 of the players who consistently came through for Wyoming day in and day out. The only replacement on the entire team will be at first doubles as the team's lone senior, Andy Koesterman, graduates.
The second doubles team of Lippert/Forsythe had a phenomenal Junior Season, beating both Indian Hill and Seven Hills.
The Line-up should be:
1D Stuart Zorn and ____________???
2D John Lippert and Trevor Forsythe
Most importantly, the Cowboys starting line-up should showcase 5 SENIORS next year. These are kids who, for most of them, have been playing on the varsity team since their freshmen years. This experience, combined with the sheer amount of talent this starting line-up has, should prove too much for depleted Seven and Indian Hills squads. (assuming either/both McCarthy doesn't play and their 3 from this year doesn't play again). If they are injury free, look for the Cowboy's to be something special in 2009.
