Junior high tennis gets underway

By Sam Waller

With district and regional competition out of the way at the high school level, Albany junior high tennis players took the court this week to start their season.

Coach M.J. Reneau said the first junior high practice was held Wednesday, April 12. Reneau said she has three events scheduled for the junior high program.

“I didn’t realize that the first tennis meet I scheduled was a STAAR date, so we’re going to have to reschedule that one,” she said. “We’ll have one tournament with Winters, then we’ll do an intrasquad meet, then it’ll be district.”

Reneau said the district tourney will be the first week of May at Abilene’s Rose Park Tennis Center.
