The Record Newspapers - Hometown News For Orange County, Texas

Orangefield High School’s Tennis Singles star player Summer Hackbarth competed in the Regionals tennis tournament in College Station on April 10-11. Summer had an outstanding performance, making us all proud and bringing home the silver 2nd place medal. Summer swept her first two competitors with scores of 6-0, 6-0 each time. The semifinals brought a more challenging match against Franklin, but Summer again delivered the victory. In the championship match, Summer played New Waverly, the 3A state singles runner up from last year, and went to deuce nearly every game with her opponent. Summer’s back-and-forth championship battle came to an end after long and tough sets, one of them going to a tiebreaker. As the regionals silver medalist, Summer will advance to the state tennis tournament in a few weeks.
