While Clarkston’s tennis team has not been forced to reschedule any matches due to persistent rains, the lack of practice time has hurt as the Wolves open the season 0-2.
‘You want to play more than you practice, but it would be nice to have a little of both,? Clarkston Coach Chaz Claus said.
Clarkston lost 5-3 at Lake Orion on April 5 and was defeated at Eisenhower by the same score on April 10.
‘We’re coming along developmentally. We have a lot of players who weren’t experienced at the flight they are playing. It’s nice to see they are coming around,? Claus said.
The silver lining in the clouds so far this season was the team’s performance at the Warren Mott Quad, as the Wolves took seven of eight flights to win the tourney on April 8. Lakeland, South Lakeland and Warren Mott were the other three teams involved.
Clarkston’s match at Avondale on April 11 finished too late for this edition of The Clarkston News. The Wolves play at Rochester High on April 12 in their last action before spring break. They resume play on April 25 at home against Rochester Adams.
The tennis team did not manage to dodge all of the April showers as their match at home against Stoney Creek was postponed to April 26.
