The top two boys tennis teams in the Seamount League faced off in a season-ending battle last night, with Kennedy Catholic besting Hazen 4-3 at Hazen High School for the League title.

Kennedy swept all four singles matches, while Hazen came out on top in all of the doubles matches, two of which went to tie-breakers.

“This was an awesome match to end the regular season,” coach Gail Ellis said in an email. “Of course I’m not happy with the final score, but our guys played with a lot of heart and emotion and made them battle for their championship and I’m proud of them for that.”

In first singles, David Vaiser lost 1-6, 0-6 and in second singles, Avelyino Vargas fell 1-6, 2-6. In third singles, Dylan Kittay lost 3-6, 4-6. In the fourth singles match, Sohil Shah was able to win the first set, but ultimately fell 6-1, 4-6, 7-10.

In doubles play, Hazen’s first team of SonLam Nguyen and Justin Nguyen won 6-4, 4-6, 10-7 while the secondteam of Alan Li and Nathan Nagel had to battle their way to a 7-6 (9-7), 6-7 (2-7), 10-7 win in which the lead in the final tie-breaker changed three times before Hazen could pull it out. And in the third doubles match, Logan Ricord and Tyler Holm won 6-1, 6-4.

Hazen finishes the season with a 9-2 overall record and an 8-2 record in the Seamount. Both losses came against Kennedy.
