Season Highlights

Now, let’s talk about some of the season highlights. One standout player this year has been freshman Bruey. He has really made a name for himself, competing at No. 1 singles and ending the regular season with an impressive 16-2 record. All of his wins came in straight sets! The young prodigy only faced defeat at the hands of state placers: Abhinav Dandu from New Albany and Shane Hand from Olentangy Liberty. Not too shabby for a freshman!

On the senior front, Clements has been a noteworthy player, finishing with a 14-3 record and competing in both singles and doubles. He qualified for his first Division I state tournament last season and is now teaming up with Dandu to play doubles. Together, they’ve accumulated a perfect 13-0 record leading into the Division II district tournament. They even snagged wins against tough competitors like Hilliard Bradley and Springfield Northwestern!

Hand’s Impressive Performance

Speaking of impressive, let’s not overlook senior Shane Hand. He’s riding high with an 11-0 record as he heads into the Division I postseason. Hand’s season included a straight-sets triumph over Nason Lo, a top Division II player from Columbus Academy. Talk about making an impact!

Meanwhile, Columbus Academy has been dominating this season, posting a flawless record of 18-0 and qualifying for the Ohio Tennis Coaches Association state tournament. Adding to this stellar lineup is the senior foreign exchange student, Prieto Moura, who also made significant contributions, finishing with a 6-6 record in singles and a solid 5-0 in doubles. His match performances even included several nail-biters, pushing his team towards victories!

More Noteworthy Players

Don’t forget about Russo, another senior in the action. He enters the Division I postseason with a 9-3 record and remarkably only faced one three-set match this season. Another rising star, Shough, is a 2024 state tournament qualifier who experienced a challenging schedule but held his own against top players like Dandu and Hand.

What’s Next for Players?

With the postseason here, it’s time for all these players to shine and give their best on the courts.
