PATROON BOYS TENNIS
Taconic Hills 4, Coxsackie-Athens 3
"It was a stressful and exciting win for us," Taconic Hills coach Tom Russo said. "The match was so close that it could have just as easily have been a 7-0 loss or a 7-0 win. Four of the 1st five matches had tiebreakers and the 2nd doubles match went 3 sets.
"I was proud of the way Madeleine and Wyatt worked through some tough games to secure the Titan win in their first match together as a doubles team."
