Comments by Coach Therese Netzer: It was the first match of the year for AL boys tennis; we knew going it was going to be tough, and it was. We are a young team: 1 senior starting, 4 sophomores, 1 freshman, and 4 eighth graders started tonight. We learned a lot of important lessons and are excited to get back on the court tomorrow to work through our new insights.
