NORWICH – Norwich varsity tennis hosted Owego Free Academy in yesterdays contest on May 3., ultimately winning 5-2. Norwich honored their four graduating seniors, Jamison Luke, Cameron Edwards, Dan Zieno, and Carlos Ithier, prior to the start of the match.
“We knew Owego was going to be a team we had to take seriously, and we knew their one and two were going to be pretty strong. Cameron Edwards did a nice job closing that kid out and our number one and two doubles teams really did a string job and played well,” said Norwich head coach John Stewart.
Much as coach Stewart attested, Owego's number one and two were solid in their play as Cole Paradies would defeat Jamison Luke 6-1 and Ben Siemer would earn the win over Carlos Ithier as well.
Senior Cameron Edwards came through for the purple when he defeated Dominic Matarese in straight sets at 6-0, 6-1.
It was Joel Fazio who rallied from behind, to secure a 2-2 split in the singles play for Norwich. Our first doubles lost the first set, so it got a little hairy there for a bit.”
Mike Carson and Dan Zieno did drop their first set 2-6 to Patrick Eliker and Nate Taylor; before rallying for the win at 6-1, 6-0.
Norwich closed out their senior night matchup by winning their remaining doubles matches.
Austin Benenati and Zayn Harper defeated Gary King and Nick Almy at 6-2, 6-2; while Josia Shaver and Matt Giglio defeated James Grant and Nick Corey at 6-1, 6-2.
“I have a lot of faith in these kids, they’re competitors every single one of them,” said Stewart of his team. “I give credit to Owego because we had to win it from them.”
Next up for Norwich is a big matchup against Oneonta later on today, away and weather permitting.
“Coming off this win, we had solid match play, so hopefully that will get us going,” said Stewart.
