The Deerfield boys JV tennis team (0-3) hosted Andover on a beautiful Saturday afternoon for the first home match of the season on Family Weekend. Despite the setting, the cheering section, and a more complete roster, the team dropped the match, 9-0.

#2 doubles Ashish Sharma ‘24/Gabe Zaccheo ’22 – 2-8

#3 doubles Andy Chen ‘25/Preyas Sinha ’24 – 1-8
