Dr. Bennett recognized the DeSoto High boys tennis team during the board's April 28 meeting and invited coach Chris Johnson to speak.
"I'm coach Johnson," he said, and described a roster with one returning player and several underclassmen. "This is just the hardest working group I've ever had," he told the board, praising players for their dedication, leadership roles in school organizations and off-court character.
Board members applauded the team and thanked parents for their commitment to practices and support. The recognition included a callout that several players will be able to play on the district's new state-of-the-art tennis courts planned for the new high school.
The presentation was celebratory; no board action was required. The board later moved through routine business and adjourned.
