Five new head coaches highlight Frontier League girls tennis this season.

Two of them are back after having previously coached their respective teams. The changes in leadership make preseason predictions a little more tricky.

"For some programs it might revitalize, bring some more excitement, to the teams," Lowville coach Jim Rhodes said of the coaching change-ups. "Other teams might have some growing pains depending on how much experience a coach has."

Rhodes took over for Dale Crossman-Cole, who retired after last school year. He had coached the Lowville team for 10 years, then left to coach at Jefferson Community College. He served as Crossman-Cole's assistant coach the last few years.

"For us its been a pretty smooth transition," Rhodes said.

The Red Raiders, who have won their last 49 matches, including league and sectional play, are stacked with talent again this year.

Here's a look at all the Frontier League teams:
