Smoking Aces

As a series of interviews of captains, we met up with Anshul, the tennis captain of the BITS BOSM team. This is a event with two singles player and one doubles. Only one of the singles player is also allowed to participate in doubles. This event has had participation from well-renowned colleges across India, including Sports colleges. In spite of that,the tennis team has been a consistent good performer in the meet, winning last year's silver medal. On being quizzed on how they expected to perform in this year's meet, Anshul said that, all of the six participating teams are at the same level. He also added that they hoped to clinch the gold this year. When asked about the participation of freshers in the BOSM Team, he said that the turnout of freshers at the try-outs were like any other year. But he also commented that the quality of freshers was not very good, and none of them made it to the final BOSM team.

Anshul also hoped that the turnouts of the BITS populace will be better than it was last year, when except for one match the turnout was abysmally low. He requested all BITS-ians to turn up in large numbers to cheer his team in BOSM.
