District Champion Tennis Team Heads to Area

October 14, 2016 - The Tennis Team will be in Longview, Monday October 17th, to begin their playoff run with their Area Quarterfinals match up against Gladewater.

The Riders are 10-4 and headed into the Area tournament as District 16 Champions playing against the 4th place District 15 finisher in Gladewater.

Quarterfinal match up will begin at 9am at Longview HS and the winner will advance to the Area Semifinals at 1pm in the same location.

First and 2nd place finishers will be determined on Tuesday, October 18th at Longview HS and both 1st and 2nd will advance to the Region 2 4A Team Tennis Championships held in Grapevine October 27-28.

The Riders are currently ranked 3rd in Region 2 and 9th in the state and looking to carry some recent momentum into the playoffs and make a deep run in the UIL Team Tennis Playoffs.  Only one team from each region advances to the State Tournament held on November 2-3 at Texas A&M and our new region alignment holds four previous state qualifying teams over the last two years.  

The Center Rider tennis team is up to the challenge which all begins Monday in Longview. Go Riders!!
