Cody Tennis Teams Prep for Final Weekend of the Regular Season

THE CODY TENNIS TEAMS ARE GETTING READY FOR THEIR FINAL DUALS OF THE SEASON BEFORE THEY TAKE PART IN THE REGIONAL TOURNAMENT NEXT WEEK. IT HAS BEEN A RECORD YEAR FOR THE FILLIES AS THEIR OVERALL MEET RECORD STANDS AT 10-0, THEY ARE 5-0 IN CONFERENCE PLAY AND HAVE A 45-2 MATCH RECORD. THIS TEAM HAS SHOWED SIMILARITIES TO ONE OF THE BEST TEAMS CODY HAS EVER SEEN. COACH SEDIG HAS SAID THIS TEAM IS “MADE OF STEEL” AND SHARES HIGH PRAISE FOR THIS YEARS TEAM.

“YEA IF I CAN COMPARE THE GIRLS TO OUR 2002 STATE CHAMPION TEAM WHICH A LOT OF THE OLDER COACHES STILL THINK THAT’S THE BEST GIRLS TEAM EVER IN WYOMING. I MEAN, WE GOT A PERFECT SCORE AT REGIONALS AND AT STATE WE GOT ALL 5 ENTRIES IN THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES AND THEY WENT 87-4 ON THE SEASON. SO I KIND OF COMPARE THIS GIRLS TEAM TO THAT TEAM AND WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE NEXT, NEXT FEW WEEKS.”

FOR THE CODY BRONCS THIS WAS LABELED A RE-TOOLING YEAR OF SORTS. THEY STARTED OFF THE SEASON STRONG, HIT SOME ROUGH PATCHES AND SIT AT AN EVEN .500 RECORD. COACH SEDIG SHARES HIS THOUGHTS ON THE BRONCS 2019 SEASON.

WELL WE WERE REALLY YOUNG LAST YEAR, INEXPERIENCED AND TALENTED. THIS YEAR WE’RE A LITTLE MORE EXPERIENCED, STILL YOUNG, STILL TALENTED, PROBABLY MORE SO TALENTED. THEY’VE PLAYED REALLY WELL AND I THINK WE’LL HAVE A PRETTY GOOD REGIONALS AND STATE. THEIR YEAR IS GOING TO BE NEXT YEAR. I THINK WE ONLY LOSE MAYBE ONE SENIOR. SO THEY’LL BE TOUGH NEXT YEAR.”

WITH WINS THIS WEEKEND THE CODY FILLIES WILL BE NORTH 4A CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS BUT THEIR IS MORE ON THE LINE THAN JUST WINNING THE CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP ON SATURDAY.

“I THINK ALL 5 ENTRIES TRY TO PICK UP TWO VICTORIES BECAUSE I THINK ALL 5 OF THEM ARE IN FOR GETTING A SEED AND THAT’S PRETTY IMPORTANT IN THE REGIONAL TOURNAMENT, THAT YOU GET ONE OF THE TOP FOUR SEEDS SO YOU CAN PLAY AN UNSEEDED PLAYER THAT FIRST MATCH OUT.”

HE GOES ON TO EXPLAIN BOTH TEAMS HAVE A GREAT WORK ETHIC BUT MENTAL PREPARATION IS JUST AS IMPORTANT.

WELL, YOU KNOW THE OLD ADAGE OF IT TAKES TALENt TO GET ON TOP AND CHARACTER TO STAY ON TOP. I DON’T DOUBT THESE GIRLS CHARACTER AT ALL. THE ONE AND TWO SINGLES AND ONE, TWO AND THREE IN DOUBLES, ARE JUST MENTALLY TOUGH AND THEY KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO PREPARE FOR MATCHES. THEY’LL BE THEIR MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY. WE’LL BE READY.”

YOU CAN CATCH BOTH THE BRONCS AND FILLIES IN ACTION SATURDAY WHEN THEY HOST NATRONA COUNTY AND KELLY WALSH FOR THEIR FINAL DUALS OF THE REGULAR SEASON. THEY MATCH-UP WITH NATRONA COUNTY AT 10AM AND FACE KELLY WALSH AT 2PM.
