Prevette Inks Her Largest Signing Class At North Texas

DENTON (5/14/03) — The departure of five seniors at the conclusion of the 2002-03 season has led to the North Texas women’s tennis team signing its largest class since Dawna Prevette became the head coach three seasons ago. Prevette has inked three high school players and two junior-college transfers to national letters of intent to play for the Mean Green next season.

Prevette, who signed Kelly Royer (Eugene, Ore.) and Krysta Lee (Hillsborough [FL] Community College) last November, has added two more freshmen and another JUCO player to the 2003 signing class. Joining Royer as freshmen on the 2004 roster are Megan Schmulbach of El Paso, Tex., (Coronado HS) and Katherine Harris from Coppell, Tex. (Coppell HS). Holly Lee, also transferring from Hillsbourough CC, is Krysta Lee’s sister and both players will have two years of eligibility left.

Schmulbach played No. 1 singles and doubles for the 2001 state champion Coronado Thunderbirds her sophomore, junior and senior seasons. As a sophomore and senior she was a Texas state 5A champion. She ranked as high as No. 7 nationally in doubles this season and finished 2002 ranked No. 197 in singles.

“Megan is a great player who hits the ball hard and is aggressive,” said Prevette. “She has a knack for doubles that will definitely help our doubles lineup. She’s a great addition to our team.”

Harris ranked No. 11 in the state of Texas in singles and paired up with Lauren Wilhelm to advance to regionals in doubles.

“Katherine is an intense player with talent, drive and spirit,” said Prevette. “She is one of the most willing athletes I’ve been around.”

Holly Lee will join the North Texas program this Fall after spending her freshman and sophomore seasons with Hillsborough CC in Tampa, Fla. Lee posted a 23-11 overall record her freshman campaign and went 38-14 overall her sophomore season for a combined record of 61-25 at Hillsborough CC.

“Holly is a tough baseliner, and she will add some depth to our lineup,” said Prevette. “She is extremely athletic, and she has a great desire to improve upon her game.”

Going to miss the girls they were mostly TX bred and they were all great students, players, and people. Best of Luck to those who Graduated (Kristen, Sandyha, Natalie, Bettina). Good Luck to those coming, especially the two Texas Girls, played each other in the 5A Doubles final.

Hope everybody supports the team next year.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      You mean the playbook that famously can be drawn out on a napkin?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
