Bruins boys tennis team earns big win at invitational

Friday, April 18, 2008 | 9:36 p.m. CDT

The Rock Bridge boys tennis team defeated Kickapoo in the quarterfinals of the Mid-Missouri Invitational 8-1.

Senior Jay Kinderknecht won 6-1, 6-3 at No. 1 singles and the team of senior Aron Franck and junior Eemaun Latifi won at No. 1 doubles 8-0. Freshman Aaron Skinner won 6-1, 6-0 and No. 3 singles. The only Bruin loss came at No. 2 doubles.

Since the rain Friday pushed back the schedule of the tournament, the Bruins (11-0) semifinal match against DeSmet began under the lights. Only the singles matches were played Friday. The doubles will take place Saturday at 9 a.m. at the Country Club of Missouri. The final will begin shortly after at Rock Bridge.
