The Dover-Sherborn boys tennis team joins host Tommy Cassell in this episode.    Two seniors in Max Schuermann (No. 1 singles) and Lucas Minas (No. 2 singles), along with their coach Jon Kirby,  talk all things tennis.   The Raiders finished the regular season with a 15-0 record and over their four years at D-S, Schuermann and Minas led their team to a 63-0 record in the regular season over that time span.    D-S lost in the Division 3 state championship in 2016, the sophomore season for both Schuermann and Minas, and fell in the Div. 3 state semifinals in 2015 and 2017. Needless to say, the Raiders have some unfinished business that is motivating them.   The three D-S tennis team members and Cassell also discuss golf, swimming, DJing and many other things.
