Bulldog_tennisTENNIS UPDATE from Oct 12: The Dawg netters wrapped up the district regular season with a convincing 12-0 victory over long-time rival Dulles on Tuesday at The Pen. It was fourth straight dual match victory for the good guys/girls.

The Bulldogs ran out to a 7-0 lead in doubles to fuel the victory. Captain Agustin Galindez and the Blonde Bomber (Bo Wilson) had little trouble at line 1, winning 8-3 against a solid Viking duo. Galindez then beat buddy Hunter “something” 9-8 (7-4) in a heated bragging-rights single match at line 1.

In line 2 doubles, other captain Brandon Kwok and Juan Forero rolled 8-3 as did Abhinav Sardana and Zach Gibson at line 3. Gibson was impressive in singles rolling 8-0.
