HCHS Cyclone Boy's Tennis Defeat Shenandoah 5-4

The HCHS boy's tennis team hosted Shenandoah on Thursday, April 20 and squeaked out a close 5-4 victory. The meet was tied 3-3 after singles and the Cyclones were able to take two of the three doubles matches to clinch the meet.

"This was a great win against a good team," Coach Chad Bruns said. "After losing 4-5 to Glenwood earlier in the week, it was great to win this one. Close meets, whether you win or lose, are just fun to coach, watch and play in. They also build important experience when you find yourself in a close match."

This meet was the last home meet of the year for the Cyclones. They travel to Atlantic on Monday, April 24 and to Clarinda on Thursday, April 27. The Cyclones finish the regular season at Red Oak on Tuesday, May 2.
