The 2018 High School tennis season finished a couple of weeks ago.
We (Kent Denver) had our season ending banquet last Monday to celebrate the efforts of a terrific group of kids.
The Sun Devils finished 4th. this year as Colorado Academy surged to a best ever point total to win the crown.
This was a very young cowboy’s eighth season and, thinking back on the last four weeks helping with varsity, I realize how fortunate we were to have a captain named Oliver Greenwald.
His doubles play was something to behold
Two state titles…he was crafty…he was bold
Ollie was like Larry Bird of Celtic fame
Always two steps ahead of
Everyone else in the game
He’ll enter college in the fall
With a future oh so bright
Each day on the court with the captain
Was an unrepeatable delight
We wish him the best
and hope he knows
that he will long be remembered
as one who stood head and shoulders
above the rest.
