Written by Chris Adamski on .

Name: Luke Phillips    
School: Baldwin  
Grade: 12  
Sport: Boys Tennis

Background info: Also a cross-country runner whom Highlanders coach Dave Hayden said was going to run in the Pittsburgh Marathon next week, Phillips only played varsity tennis for the final two of his four high school years. He played at the top of the lineup this season for a Baldwin team that is poised to make the playoffs out of Section 4-AAA. Phillips was a section singles tournament quarterfinalist.

Coach Dave Hayden says: "His style is very consistent. He gets a lot of balls back in play, and he will run all day. He's content to stay out there for 2 1/2 hours and keep rallying balls with people."
