The Raiders finished the year ….

The Raiders finished the year 5-8-2 overall in dual meets, including 4-3-1 in the Great Northern Conference, where they finished third and did well with a relatively inexperienced group of 10 varsity players.

“We’ll lose just two seniors, albeit two very good seniors with Quinton Tlusty at number-one singles and Brayden Machon at number-one doubles. Of the eight guys we’ll have back, we have a conference champion (Balciar), a couple of conference runners-up (Damm and the number- two doubles team of Brett Lundy and Conner Klingbeil). We had a good season. I was very happy with how we played, considering it was a year of transition, losing a very good head coach in Jake Bucki. That was tough for some guys. I know I learned a lot this year.”
