Boys Tennis Loses Match to Ridgefield

by Caroline McKay

On Thursday, April 16, the Boys Varsity Tennis Team played a match against Ridgefield at Ridgefield High School.

“We lost, but everyone played well and battled hard. We are preparing now for our upcoming matches,” junior Sammy Alptekin said. Alptekin was unable to play due to injuries he sustained during the previous match on Wednesday.

Senior Brad D’Alelio and freshman Cooper Murray played doubles, but lost to the Ridgefield duo 6-3, 6-1. Senior Tyler Hatfield lost his singles match 6-4, 7-5. In an exciting tiebreaker, sophomore Russell Mahaney fought hard but could not pull out a win, losing 6-2, 2-6, and 10-7.

The boys’ next match is at home at 4 pm on Monday, 4/28.
