GC men’s tennis fielded a young and inexperienced
squad this season. The Pride’s number one through five singles players
were underclassmen: four being freshmen. Greensboro College men’s tennis
finished 6-9 overall, yet had a number of high marks during the year.
Leading the way was P.G.
Grane, a freshman who played number one singles and doubles all
year.
“P.G. battled the region’s best players playing
at number one,” Head Coach Pat Williams
said. “He has exceptional talent, is mature for a freshman, and finished
fifth at conference. We’re confident P.G. will have a tremendous career
playing for The Pride.”
At the Hilton Head Island Spring Break event, The
Pride had a 2-1 record. GC also had two exciting 4-3 wins. One was over
Maryville, and the other was in conference at North Carolina Wesleyan.
Junior Carlo Gonzales led GC with a
7-6 mark at number six singles.
“This young team had success early in the year,”
said Williams. “We went through a growing process and I’m proud of the
way the team competed. With our top five players expected to return, I’m
counting on big things from this squad next season.”
