Coach DeForest & I are SUPER happy with how the guys performed on Friday.  Great showing up & down the line-up.  6 flight Champions & 1 Runner-Up!  We ended the day watching Tommy Kling playing his heart out losing a close match in the #1 Singles final to Allegan’s Eli Festerling in a great high school tennis match!  That was high-level.  Best match of Tommy’s high school career and it is likely he will get one more shot at him on Friday.  At #2 Singles Niklas won the flight doing what he does….steady, consistent tennis with a lot of variety that wins A LOT of matches.  Andrew was dominant at 4S, winning his flight not dropping more than 3 games in any set.  He is striking the ball extremely well right now!  Our doubles teams all certainly showed up as well.  In 12 total doubles matches, we dropped one set on the day.  Great stuff in all flights.  Complete flight & team results below:
