Rice Sidelined In Tennis Regional
VALPARAISO – Sam Rice saw his postseason tennis run come to an end Saturday.
The Warsaw No. 1 singles player dropped a 6-0, 6-3 final to Jack Hibbard of Wheeler in the LaPorte Regional.
The match, which was scheduled to be played at Kesling Park in LaPorte, was moved indoors to The Courts of Northwest Indiana due to rain.
Hibbard, a senior, improved to 20-1 with the semifinal win and advanced to play in the individual regional final Saturday.
Rice, who helped lead the Tigers to a team sectional championship, finishes his senior season with a record of 14-8.
