CITY (NewsDakota.com)–The Hi-Liner tennis team will begin their post-season push today.
Valley City hosts Wahpeton in the Eastern Dakota Conference (EDC) play-in match this afternoon. The Hi-Liners won the right to host the match with a 6-3 win over the Huskies in the regular season.
Today’s match will follow the 3-2 format, meaning three singles and two double’s matches, with no play being able to play both singles and doubles. The regular season match saw the Hi-Liners sweep the doubles matches for the win.
The winner advances to the EDC team tournament as the #8 seed, and will meet Grand Forks Red River, the 14-time defending state champion, in the opening round. Both teams will send their individual players to the EDC Individual Tournament. The tournament begins Thursday in Grand Forks.
