The boys varsity tennis team got another win under its belt defeating The Berkshire School 5-2 in Sheffield, MA. The win puts the team at 2-1 overall on the season.

Doubles was once again strong for DA with wins at all 3 slots. The #1 team of Sarachek/Ueland took down their opponents 8-1 to remain undefeated on the season; #2 Noah and Oscar Depp had a strong 8-2 win; and Peh/Park also won 8-2 to log their second consecutive win at #3.

Down two players in singles due to injuries (#1 Sarachek and #6 Oscar Depp), the Green fought hard and won 4 out of 6 singles contests. #1 Ueland and #2 Peh cruised to easy victories while #3 Noah Depp fought hard but ultimately lost 6-2, 6-4. Making their singles debuts were #5 Yongjin Park and #6 Freddy Manning; Freddy pulled out a win 6-4, 6-3 using pace and smart court sense to defeat his opponent, while Park staged a big comeback in the second set but ended up losing in the deciding third set tiebreaker 10-6.

The most exciting match of the day came from #4 freshman Blix Salz. Salz battled a consistent and dropshot-loving opponent and, with all eyes on him in his third set superbreaker, pulled out a 7-6(4), 4-6, 10-8 victory.

The team next takes on Westminster at home on Wednesday, May 5.
