Ready for spring…

With spring break officially over, it’s time for the stretch run of the school year. As for The Boneman, you can find me on the tennis courts. Our first of many big offerings is this weekend with the Heritage Hall Tournament of Champions.
You might as well just call this the state tournament with all the top teams and players competing. Here’s just a sample:
Boys: 5A No. 1 Jenks and Tulsa Union; No. 3 Edmond Memorial; No. 4 Norman North. 4A No. 1 Tulsa Kelley; No. 4 Shawnee. 3A No. 2 Heritage Hall; No. 3 OCS.
Girls: 5A No. 1 Jenks; No. 2 Edmond North; No. 3 Edmond Memorial; No. 5 Tulsa Union. 4A No. 2 Duncan; No. 3 Ada. 3A No. 1 McGuinness; No. 2 Heritage Hall.
The only prominent names missing would be 4A girls No. 1 Tulsa Kelley with the trio of Lewis sisters (Andrea, Abby and Amy) and 3A boys No. 1 Cascia Hall with dynamite No. 1 singles star Chris Gordon.
This will be a good indicator of what we can expect heading into the state tournament in May. A lot of the top names are gone from last year with new names looking to take that mantle.
Girls play Friday with the boys Saturday. You can watch a day of great tennis and still watch the NCAA Tournament at night, can’t beat that. Davidson in the Elite Eight doesn’t sound as stupid as it did when I filled out my bracket last Sunday. Gotta love Stephen Curry.
