Knoxville Tennis Plays Davis County Today

Both Knoxville Tennis Squads will be on the courts today against Davis County. The girls are playing the conference favorite as the Mustangs have nearly everyone back from last year. The boys are looking to bounce back from a 9-0 setback against Chariton on Tuesday. Coach Kevin Wadle tells KNIA/KRLS Sports one of the areas of work is to go longer on each point, so his guys can force their opponents into a mistake.

Wadle: “I’ve talked about in high school tennis, more points are lost than are won. If we can keep that point a little longer, get them out of position, make them make a mistake, maybe just one more shot is all it takes.”

The girls will host at the Joel Tonda Tennis Courts in Knoxville while the boys will travel to Bloomfield.
