WILMINGTON — With the first two singles positions rallying in the second set, the Wilmington High School tennis team sits atop the South Central Ohio League Friday after a 4-1 win over Washington at the WHS courts.

Wilmington remains unbeaten in league play at 4-0 and stands 4-1 overall.

Washington is 3-1 in the SCOL and 3-2 in all matches.

“Great match against two very evenly matched teams,” WHS coach Steve Reed said.

WHS swept the doubles courts, with Mason McIntosh and Drew Moyer posting a relatively easy 6-1, 6-2 win at first doubles. Jack Romer and Daniel Andrews were 6-4, 6-4 winners at second doubles.

Jonathan Fender and Brady Henry were both down 4-5 in the second set but came back to win their matches in two sets.

“Johnny and Brady were both down 4-5 in the second set and did a great job of bucking down and securing the match,” Reed said.
