The Pella boys and girls tennis teams are again both Little Hawkeye Conference regular season and tournament champions. Pella’s boys edged Norwalk 48-46. The Little Dutch had the day come down to a gusty win by Jack Edwards in a super tie-breaker, against an opponent he lost to earlier in the year 2-6, 3-6. With the conference title on his racket, Edwards raced to a lead in the tiebreaker only to see it slip through his strings to make it 8-8. Two points later Jack slipped a forehand down the line past his opponent to win the tie-breaker, the match, and the LHC title. Jordan Roozeboom took home his 3rd straight LHC Flight 1 Singles championship behind a strong win over AJ Clarkwilt from Norwalk. Luke Diers and Ezra Blasi won flight 2 doubles as the No. 3 seed.

The Lady Dutch Tennis Team had a 1st place flight 1 singles win from Brooke Jorgensen, a 2nd place flight 2 finish for Zoe Card, and a runner-up placement for the doubles duo of Lisa Dykstra and Makenzie Van Maanen in flight two. Pella Christian scored 32 points to place 3rd in the girls tournament. Morgan Bush and Lizzy Posthuma placed 3rd in flight one doubles, as did Kelly Van Wyk in flight two doubles.
