TJC Tennis Notches Impressive Victories
OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Tyler Junior College Apaches are playing their best tennis of the season, said TJC coach John Peterson.
Minus its top two players, TJC still managed to impressively roll past Seminole (Okla.), 7-2, on Saturday and Cowley County (Kan.), 6-3, on Friday.
At full strength, the Apaches downed Seminole, 5-4, a week ago.
"Those were two really good wins for our guys," Peterson said. "Our guys, all weekend, really played their best tennis of the year. They are going to make it tough for our (No. 1) and (No. 2)?guys to get back in the lineup."
The Apaches' top standouts were Pete Thomas and Stan Rodier.
In women's action, TJC defeated Seminole, 8-1, and Cowley County, 7-2.
The Apache Ladies left their top three singles and No. 3 doubles at home for the weekend, leaving players at the bottom of the order to play up.
"Our girls have been winning so easily at the bottom of the lineup that I wanted to put pressure on them before we get to nationals," Peterson said.
TJC returns to action Tuesday against St. Edward's University in College Station.
