La Grange Tennis Update

Here are the results for varsity tennis at Monday’s tournament in Shiner: 2nd place- Eleanor Carey/ Ella Nygren (Girls Doubles) 3rd place- Kynzee Swafford (Girls Singles) 4th place- Jonathan Bamsch/Jahir Lopez-Ocon (Boys Doubles) 4th place- Paige Michalke/ Rogan Mihatsch (Mixed Doubles) “Although we did not have a full squad, still had some good results and hopefully we’ll be back to full strength after the break,” said head coach Chris Westall. “Ella Nygren is coming off the girls basketball season and jumped straight into tennis with little practice time before this tournament, so very good early result for this veteran team. Kynzee Swafford bounced back from a tough semifinal loss to claim a 3rd place metal in girls singles.”
