Well that's a wrap on the 2026 tennis season. What an amazing three days of tennis action with Hardin hosting our first ever state tournament. There are so many people to thank and I apologize if I miss anyone but I'd like to take a second to acknowledge people that made our school and community look great during this event. Travis Krieger and Kole Passes for being the tournament directors, Chad Guptill and the maintenance crew for making sure the courts and facility were top notch, Clinton Fitzpatrick for making sure everything was stocked and clean and maintaining the facilities throughout the tournament, Kam and Nadine Koyama for the hospitality room, DonD Boyer for making sure all the athletes were taken care of whether it was weather or injury related, Nicole Boyer for making sure we had updated brackets and for creating the championship brackets, Robert and Bobbi Koyama for having the resources to help with all of our needs throughout the three days, and Larry Ericksen, Cabel Noteboom, and Macie Flamm for doing more than just being coaches, Again, if I missed anyone, thank you so much.

The players had one of our best state tournaments I've been a part of. The boys ended up second place overall and scored more points than any other boys team has ever scored at a state tournament. In most seasons this would have been a championship but Whitefish had one of the best teams ever assembled and they stepped up in all matches they needed to secure the championship. Our hats off to them. Liberty and Paige had one of the best state tournaments we've ever had for a doubles team and all by themselves scored enough points to be 5th place by themselves.

Wesley Walks was our fist boy in over 20 years to play in the singles championship. He ended up second. Tim Whiteman came out on fire and knocked off two higher seeds to advance to the semifinals and Friday. He ended up sixth in singles. These two young men could be seen at the courts throughout the last year pushing each other to be the best they could be. William Noteboom and Adrian Taganahan earned their first trip to a state championship match after finishing third a year ago. They came out on fire in the first set and then lost two heartbreaking sets to get second place. Luke Brien and Bruno Pallone advanced to the "blood round" which is the round where if you win you are all state, and dropped tough three set match. They played hard and should be hungry a year from now to go even further. As stated earlier, Paige and Liberty played great. They suffered a tough loss in the quarterfinals and fought their way all the way through the consolation round to end up third place.

We will have our season ending banquet on Wednesday night at 5:30 at the new courts. For all of the state players please bring your uniforms. I look forward to seeing you Wednesday night for one last opportunity to celebrate these kids. It was truly and honor to work with such a great group of athletes.

Eastern A Divisional Tennis is a wrap and the Bulldogs have another trophy to put on the wall. The boys scored 56 points almost doubling up the next closest team with 29 points. Wesley Walks won the singles bracket and William Noteboom and Adrian Taganahan won the doubles bracket. Luke Brien and Bruno Pallone took third place while Tim Whiteman was fourth in singles. These six boys qualify for state. The other four boys on the team all had wins in the tournament and contributed to the final score. On the girls side we have another set of divisional champs in doubles. Liberty Koyama and Paige Cain played an outstanding tournament and will also be advancing to state. The girls team put up a good fight and there will be many returners next year with more experience. We are extremely proud of the results but more than anything we are proud of how these players act. We get more compliments from people from other towns about what good kids we. have. This is a direct reflection on the families that raise these kids and hopefully the way that our program runs. This has been a lot of fun working with this group.

The state tournament begins Thursday and runs through Saturday here in Hardin. We will only be using the six new courts for this tournament. Each day begins at 8:00. Please come out and support this amazing group of student athletes.
