Coach Garos states: "We are truly grateful for the opportunity to play tennis this year. The fact that tennis season ended at State is icing on the cake. Of course, we hoped to play on day two as well, but the Chargers can be proud of their tennis game, how they represented their school, and of their accomplishments. We are looking forward to what next year will bring."
