Here are some updates from the last week of tennis competition 🎾
Despite the loss for the girls, Layla T. ‘30 competed in a very close match against a senior who finished second at last year’s State Championship. Their final score was 7-9. Isabella Jank ‘27 continued her junior year win streak at singles and doubles.
“The Chargers did not have a full lineup because of testing, injuries, illness and travel plans,” said Coach Bob Davis. “The three varsity players who competed did an exceptional job and only lost the match by one point.”
