From MSHS Boys Tennis Head Coach, Karl Thomsen:
- “Our two teams battled a couple weeks ago and you can see quite a bit of improvement from both teams. My hat goes off to Tyler and Mick, Negaunee’s #3 and #4 players. Both of those young men had to move up in the line-up today and it didn’t seem to faze them. As for our squad, I thought we were fundamentally strong in our doubles matches and Brian Belkowski did a good job of mixing his play up today. I’m really pleased with the level of tennis by both teams and it should make for an exciting U.P. Tournament next week. I think Coach Saari said this is the closest he can remember three teams (Negaunee, Esky, and Marquette) being heading into the U.P.’s in quite some time.”
