Thank you to all 21 students who came out for tennis tryouts this week! We had a very strong group of players, which made for some extremely competitive matches.
With 21 students competing for just 12 spots, players competed in elimination brackets during tryouts. The final roster was determined based on the results and performance during those competitive matches. Unfortunately, because of our limited court space and team size, we are only able to keep 12 players.
Not making the team does not take away from the work or ability of any player who tried out. We had more strong players than available spots, and there were some very close and competitive matches.
Congratulations to the following students who made the 2026 Tennis Team:
Sam Bookout
Laney Burris
Ethan Fredrick
Jashin Guram
Austin Hester
Lucy Lawlor
Palmer Livingston
Van Messer
William Nienaber
Rai Patel
Briana Patel
Bryton Wright
2026-2027 Details Will be Provided at Practice Tuesday, September 1st.
We practice and play home matches at TC Roberson’s home courts off Springside Drive. If there is bad weather, practice will be canceled. If TC Roberson plays or practices the same day as VSMS, they have court priority and we will play on the back 2 courts by the Buncombe County Schools pool.
Matches are typically held on Tuesdays and Thursdays and practice Mondays and Wednesdays - the schedule will be updated as changes are made throughout the season. Coaches will notify you by email and text as soon as any changes occur.
