From Coach Aaron Taylor: “Matheus ran into an excellent player in Mason who was his District's champion last year.  Noah ran into a similar situation as Matt was his District's runner-up to Mason.  Leandro also went up against a former state doubles qualifier in Mark.  At 1st doubles Jeff and Matt were forced to retire due to an injury after playing a very close first set.  Ryan and Max had a tough time against a very cohesive unit from Lexington at 2 doubles."
