SALT LAKE CITY — One of the winningest boys' tennis programs in Utah prep history added another piece of hardware to the trophy case Saturday at Liberty Park.
Eric Lu and Andrew Murphy each won a singles title, and the double steam of Henry Damico and Eric Brown added a championship in second singles as Rowland Hall swarmed to 65 team points and repeated as 3A boys' tennis champions at Liberty Park.
It's the 20th state title all-time for the Winged Lions, the second-most in state history and just two behind Grantsville for the most since the Utah High School Activities Association sanctioned the sport in 1963.
Mack Moore won in second singles to lead Waterford to second place with 45 points, followed by Ogden (33), Juab (22) and Richfield (21) in the top five.
