On Friday, September 23^rd, a battle broke out on the tennis courts when the Faith Lutheran Crusaders took on the Arbor View Aggies.

With a score of 11 to 7, the Faith Lutheran boys' tennis team took home another victory.  Jake Benowitz was 3-0 in singles.  The doubles team of Sean Kennedy and Parker Gatewood led with 3-0.  Sam Taylor went 2-1 in singles.

“One of the best things about this year is that we have had a number of players join us who have made a huge impact,” said Assistant Coach Braun. 

“Parker Gatewood joined us and now he is playing 1^st doubles.  Mark Lacy transferred in this year and he is playing 3^rd singles.  Aaron Chan rejoined us this year and Eric Neuman has also been a big help.   Now for our girls' team, we have had a lot of freshmen and sophomores join, which not only gives us hope for this year, but for the future as well.”

The Lady Crusader tennis team also took home a victory with a score of 13 to 5.  Faith’s double teams of Callie Meinhardt and Rachel Tabor, Kristina Berg and Vanessa Lee, and Ally Chingros and Chandler Young all went 3-0. 

“Tennis is one of those sports that you can play when you are older with friends,” said Chingros.

Both of the Crusader tennis teams are doing really well and only need to win one more match in order to make it to regionals.
