For four years Seminole High School seniors Danni Klassen and Franz Fehr have played tennis for the Tribe. The two just finished the fall season by leading their team into the playoffs and winning a bi-district trophy. Now they are awaiting spring and what will be their last season on the hard courts of Seminole High School.

“It’s been an interesting four years,” Klassen said. “We have had three coaches in that time and they all have had their own philosophy of how to play the game. I just go out and play my game, which is to swing hard and try to win the point as soon as I can.”

FT STOCKTON - It took five sets Tuesday night, but the Seminole Maiden volleyball team brought home a Bi-District Championship trophy.

The Maidens were the home team against the visiting Clint Lions - and the match was played on neutral territory in Ft. Stockton.

Seminole came out slow in the first set and the last time they were tied was at 5-5.

The Lions ripped off nine unanswered points after that and took a commanding 5-14 lead - a lead that they would never give up.

The Maidens fought hard at the end but ended up losing the first set 19-25.
