Henry '23 and Bennett '23 have qualified for the Individual State Singles Tournament to be held on Thursday, May 25 and Friday, May 26 based on their performance yesterday in the Individual Region Singles Tournament held at the Lummis Indoor Tennis Center at Vanderbilt. Going into Thursday's tournament, Henry '23 was the #1 seed from our district and sailed through to the final without dropping a game in his two matches. Bennett '23 battled hard beating the #1 seed from the other district in the first round, 8-5. His semifinal round was a rematch from the district semifinal where his opponent got the best of him, but not this time. Even though Bennett '24 got down early, losing the first set 6-4, he never gave up. He worked his way back into the match and won the second set 6-4. With the match tied at 1 set each, they went on to pay a first to 10-point, third set match tie-breaker. Bennett '23 got a quick lead and was able to sustain the momentum defeating his opponent 10-6.
