Glen Lake Tennis Team kicked off a hectic early season with a series of important wins. After starting the season with a win at Haslett High School, they traveled all the way to the Indiana border to play two Division 4 rivals – Allegan and Berrien Springs – which they beat 7-1.
“These teams are universally in the top ten in the state each year, so it’s a good test to see how we will compete this season,” stated Glen Lake Coach Johnny Voss, “I was amazed at how dominant our doubles teams were as all our doubles lineups are new.”
Glen Lake raced home to host Division 3 schools Petoskey and Zeeland East. Both Hawthorn Sutherland, and Michael Houtteman had convincing singles wins against Zeeland East. The 1st doubles team of Ben Romzek and Oliver Mitchell also volleyed their way to a 6-3, 6-2 victory. Against Petoskey, Glen Lake’s #1 singles player Colebrook Sutherland won a thrilling three set tiebreaker victory. The third doubles team of Bryce Cundiff and William Krusel also won in an exciting third set tiebreaker.
