Friday proved to be a solid day of tennis for the TG Eagles in the Section 6A Individual tournament at PIT. Junior Bennett Bednarczyk and sophomore Luke Brandt, playing less than 3 singles matches this year, both took on opponents from Pine City. And they contested every point before the experience of the Dragons took hold, defeating the Eagles in straight sets.

Senior Matthew Livermont and freshman Eli Dunn teamed at doubles and took on the fourth seed, also from Pine City. A break of serve in each set proved to be the difference as Pine City prevailed in straight sets.

Sophomores Aidan Raddohl and Gustavo Faleiros Barbosa, seeded third, dropped only two games in two matches to advance to the semi-finals on Tuesday (5/28). The semi-finals and finals will be played indoors at the Rogers Tennis Club. Here are the details:
