“We had a great season! We were lucky enough to have over 30 boys try out for the team, and although it is always a difficult heart wrenching decision, it is great to see the passion young people have for tennis. After tryouts, we were able to winnow the number down to 16 enthusiastic hard working players. 

We had solid competition throughout the season. While some teams were too strong of a match for our young team (made up  of almost half 6th graders and only one 8th grader), we appreciated the challenge of schools like Horace Mann, Newark Academy, and Delbarton. We also had some great, close wins, including a 4-3 win against MKA and a 4-3 win vs Delbarton (clinched by a first doubles tiebreaker!). More importantly, the boys demonstrated great sportsmanship throughout the season, and they had a lot of fun together as uniformly all the players made great progress in their games.
