Varsity Tennis v. Avon Old Farms

EAGLEBROOK PLANT THE SEEDS FOR A GREAT SEASON AT OLD FARMS.
In the traditional opening match of the new season, Eaglebrook Varsity Tennis took its young but talented team to play against Avon's JV team on April 2. It was clear from the opening doubles matches that Eaglebrook was a much stronger team. Eaglebrook won all three matches easily, with Ryo Kono and Julian Fialkow playing exceptionally well at the number 2 spot. The singles matches were similar, with number 1 player Pun Saropala dispatching his very talented opponent 8-0. Hayden Dunham, who played at the number 3 spot, was equally impressive. Julian Fialkow and Adam Beek also recorded good wins. Ryo Kono continued his excellent first performance for the school, winning 8-4 and collecting the Man of the match award. Lorenzo Mendoza lost 8-6, but he should be proud as he was down 5-0 before mounting a thrilling comeback. This win was pleasing and bodes well for the rest of the season, provided the sun makes an appearance soon.
