Sewickley tennis players state their case

Written by Cara De Carlo on .

Ryan Riordan's feature on Sewickley tennis:

 

"When the Class AA Section 3 singles bracket was posted this high school tennis season, what stuck out the most was a name that wasn't listed.

Sewickley Academy's Colin Kaye won the 2012 WPIAL Class AA singles championship as a junior, but the Panthers' section singles participants this season were Patrick Dellinger and Logan Yee.

It turns out that Dellinger, who won the WPIAL doubles title with Will Kleeman last season, told Kaye that he wished to play in the singles tournament. Kaye was fine playing doubles with Kleeman, especially since Kaye and Kleeman will be a favorite at the PIAA tournament later this month."
