The final conference tennis matches of the fall season of 2025 wrapped up Thursday in Z-Land. Despite a valiant effort by the top two singles players in the South Adams lineup, county teams came up empty in the win column.
The Bellmont boys had to play shorthanded against New Haven, causing another lineup shuffle and hamstringing their efforts to pick up a point against New Haven. James Miller did his best to keep the Braves from being shut out by winning the second set, but it was not enough.
Bellmont will play Saturday in the Delta Invite, while the rest of the local teams will prepare for Monday’s draw and what looks to be a clean weather week for next week’s sectional.
