Sewickley tennis team already points toward more success in '13

Chris Adamski's feature on the prospects of the young Sewickley Academy boys' tennis team in 2013:

"The winning programs, that's what they do.

They're always working toward the next big thing.

It didn't take long for Sewickley Academy to move on from its season-ending 4-1 loss to eventual champion Wyomissing in the PIAA Class AA boys tennis team tournament this past Saturday.

"After the match we were talking about next season," third singles player Will Kleeman said. "We'll win states next year. I know we're really sad now, but we're really hungry. I know I'll put in the time this summer, fall and winter to make sure that next year is our year."

Each of the past nine years has been "The Panthers' Year" -- at least when it comes to winning the WPIAL title. Sewickley Academy won another two weeks ago with a 4-1 victory against Section 3-AA rival Hampton."
