Historic Team Tennis Season Comes to an End for LHS

The La Grange Team Tennis squad played in the school’s first ever playoff match on Monday against District 24 top seed Caldwell. Many La Grange players played their best tennis of the year and all competed remarkably, but in the end the team fell 0-10 to an outstanding Caldwell unit.

“Although not the result we wanted, the match caps a very successful year for the program which is now at playoff-caliber status,” said La Grange tennis coach Chris Westall.

“With only one senior leaving and a freshman/sophomore- heavy team, the future should see continued improvement,” he said. “Despite the loss, the players are very excited with the momentum generated to get going into Spring tennis, which starts up in January.”
