A year ago an inexperienced, underclassmen dominated Barker tennis team endured the learning and growing pains of an 0-12 Niagara-Orleans League season. Now, the Raiders return a large veteran contingent with which to improve upon that record.
Senior Nick Fazzolari, who earned second team N-O all-League honors, heads that veteran group which also includes seniors Nick Sutch and Maya Gooding, juniors Marisa Jowdy and Grace Harris, sophomores Zander Israel and Christian Young and eighth grader Natalie Bruning.
Tim Daley takes over the coaching reins for the Raiders which are scheduled to open N-O competition at Akron on April 4.
