 In any sport participating and making it to state is the goal of many athletes and high school sports teams. Making it to state requires hard work throughout the season and dedication to your sport.

On Oct. 10, 11 and 12 two tennis players, junior Michael Maxwell and sophomore Monroe Porter, represented Legend at the State Tournament after competing in Regionals. Both finished in the top five, with Porter placing fourth and Maxwell placing fifth.  As a team, they finished 11th of 20 high schools.

Maxwell’s favorite memory from State was “winning my first match because I was nervous being at state.”

“Overall I felt I played descent. I had a really good season,” Maxwell said.

The boys’ tennis team ended its season with a 7-2 record.

“The season went well even though we lost some of the seniors. The whole team is happy about our finish,” said senior and #1 singles player Adam Peszek.

The highlight of the season was winning the Pride of Parker Trophy a second year in a row. They won this trophy by again beating both Chaparral and Ponderosa.

The Highlands Ranch Regionals tournament took place Oct. 3 and 4 at Highlands Ranch at RedStone Park in Highlands Ranch.
