Athletics Update: Tennis Is the Fan Favorite This Spring

Tennis athletes have outnumbered their lacrosse and track counterparts in all three sessions this spring. As each middle school grade cycles through the tennis, lacrosse, and track offerings, tennis has drawn nearly half of the class each time. Limited to the two courts on campus this year, coaches Jim Walker and Kurt Robinson have dug deep into their hopper of tricks to keep the players moving and engaged. It’s unclear whether the surge in tennis numbers will continue next year. If it does, the program will need to get creative as interscholastic teams only roster 12 players. Until then, Coach Walker and Coach Robinson will keep feeding balls to the army of Belmont Day tennis players.
