Hey everybody, it's Andy Roddock, host of Serve podcast for your fix on all things tennis.

The U.S. Open's coming up and we're covering it on our show. Can someone knock off Algarazan Center? Can Coco Gophe won her second U.S. Open title? Can Fiatik win her second Grand Slam title in a row? Can Sabalanka break through and win her Grand Slam in 2025? You can watch our coverage of the U.S. Open on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcast, brought to you in part by Amazon Prime.

Welcome back into another episode of the Arrowhead Pride Mailbag show. I am Stephen Serta,

hanging out with my guy, Rocky Maganya. Uh, Rocky, before we get going, um, we have to send a

congratulations to our good friend Pete Sweeney, who has

accepted a position at the Kansas City Star to be their lead chiefs beat reporter. So Pete's

leaving Arrowhead Pride after about a decade, which, you know, sorry to see Pete leave, but also

very excited for my good friend that he is taking this step up and covering them at such a prestigious place.

And I know Pete's going to crush that thing.

So I'm very happy for my friend Pete Sweeney, even though I'm bummed.

We're not going to be working together anymore.

Yeah, yeah, that part sucks.

But, I mean, Pete's the gold standard

across the board, not just for journalistic integrity, but just for being a good dude and a good

boss and a great, and an amazing editor and a great support system. And, you know, he took a chance

on a guy who had some questionable posts in the fan in the fan post area and saw

something in my writing and took a shot on me and you know i've worked to try to repay that that

that vote of confidence i don't know if i have always but um yeah no i wouldn't be here if it

wasn't for pete sweeney so uh Pete, we're going to miss you, man.

You're the absolute best, absolute best.

Like I said, gold standard captain.

And it's been an honor to work under you.
