This year's tennis season was very exciting, first of all because we were actually able to play the entire season without any incident due to COVID 19, but also because of a special accomplishment by one of our players - Max Hauffe.

Coach Ludwig said, “I have never witnessed in all 10-years of coaching, a player able to go undefeated for the entire season with a final record of 16-0. Unfortunately, we were not able to hold our playoffs the way they are traditionally held, so he could not be crowned as 1st place in the region, but we are confident he would have achieved that status if he were given the chance.” 

Max was instrumental in helping to push and develop the other players around him by inspiring them and being a role model.  He showed them the proper form and technique and most importantly, he showed them how dedication to a sport can really pay off in the end.  

“Our team did not make it to the state competition this year, but we had a pretty solid 6-6-3 record. We sustained a late season injury in our number 2 player, which forced other players to step up into a tougher role than they had anticipated, but they did it with courage and honor held high.  I am very proud of my players and I thoroughly enjoyed coaching them this year because they are a great bunch of kids who not only enjoy the sport of tennis, but they are a lot of fun to be around,” said Coach Ludwig.
