Hobart 02-03 tries to improve on #14 finish

Last year Hobart was ranked 15th nationally with a 14th finish in the National Team Championships. Although the team lost two solid contributors to graduation — Reed Harwood and Andrew Hunt — in return they gain a strong contributor, Gavin Butcher.

Harwood played #4 for most of the season and Hunt played #8 most of the season. Andrew Scott,#2 for Hobart last Fall played four matches and took off second semester.

Scott returns this Fall and will
strengthen the top of this year's line-up. #1 T.V. Rathore returns as does Angel Magana who played #2 most of the year.

Magana is fresh off the Pan Am Games where he represented El Salvador.

Other returning players in last year's starting line-up include Henry Clutsam,
Cameron Lister, Ryan Gillmore, Freddy Cook,
and Richard Reutter.

Hobart 02-03 tries to improve on #14 finish

Gavin Johnstone-Butcher is Hobart's top recruit. Gavin joins the team after a strong NE Prep career in which he played #1 for St. Paul's School for three years and finished in the top five New England high school players. He is expected
to add strength and toughness to the top of this year's line-up.

In return, Gavin should benefit from strong competition on a daily basis. Others expected to contend for a position in the starting line-up are freshmen Devin Resler, Jared Shahid and Michael Tien.
