Concord Invitational Preview

Here's a brief look at the teams in the Concord Invitational. It will be a tough invitational this year, as we are the least experienced team taking part.

Concord Details: 2-0 on the season. Defeated John Glenn (5-0) and Elkhart Central (5-0). Return five varsity players from a team that was state ranked at one point last season. Definitely the heavy favorites in this tournament on their home courts.

Jimtown Details: 2-0 on the season. Defeated NorthWood (5-0) and Mishawaka (5-0). Return four varsity players from last year's conference champions. All three singles players return. Haven't had the most difficult opposition yet this season, but should provide a stiff test for us tomorrow.

Rochester Details: 1-1 on the season. Defeated South Bend Clay (3-2) and lost to Triton (1-4). Had no upperclassmen on last year's team but it seems that their #1S from last year has yet to play in a match. Most other players return however. Will be interesting to see how we react to their experience.

Bethany Christian Details: 1-1 on the season. Lost to Northridge (1-4) and defeated Goshen (5-0). Return one player from varsity competition last year. Two different lineups in two different matchups with two different results. What's up for Saturday? Who knows. One thing though, we will try to continue the confident and energetic tennis we played against Goshen this weekend, and hope to continue improving.
