Canes Take to the Tennis Courts

The ‘Cane boys played Salem (AAAA) to a 2-2 tie on the tennis court last Wednesday, March 2, in their second match of the season, during which Phillips Workman lost a very close 9-7 singles match.
The number two doubles team of German Garibay and Adrian Campbell won 9-7, and the number two doubles team of Walt Rabon and Uriel Garibay won 8-2.

The Lady ‘Canes lost 8-3 after all three singles matches ended in defeat. However the number one doubles team of Kaitlan Needham and Ami Labrolia won 8-3, and the number two doubles team of Kiki Warren and Christin Jackson also won by a score of 8-3.

Last Tuesday, March 2, in their first match of the season the boys and girls were both defeated 5-0 by a strong Morgan County team which has just dropped down from AAA.

Head Tennis Coach Paul Stokes said, “We knew we were going to be up against a dominant team, however some of our players played much better than we expected.”
