By Sam Waller

Albany junior high tennis players competed in their first event of the season Wednesday, April 20 with a dual match against Winters.

“Everyone’s going to get a game in,” Reneau said on Tuesday. “We’re just trying to get them some practice before they have to compete at their district meet.”

The district tournament will be played Monday, May 2 at Rose Park Tennis Center in Abilene.

“It’s been really busy with regional and state trying to get junior high practices in,” Reneau said.

Reneau said about 30 players are participating in the junior high program. Most will be playing doubles.
