Predictions for Champs or other competitions Competition is very tough and our team is trying to compete for top 4 positions and hopefully to have opportunity to play in final and defend championship. Any unique or other info regarding the team or players In everyday life athletes on the team have very kind and sweet personalities, but when they compete for our school, they put their game face on and sometimes look very dangerous. The team spirit is one of the important traits that Texas Wesleyan team has. << Printed With Permission of USATT (Visit usatt.org) >> LEARN MORE ABOUT TEXAS WESLEYAN HERE
