The Olympic League boys tennis championships is Wednesday and
Thursday. The tournament at North Kitsap begins at 8 a.m. The
seeding meeting for coaches is Monday.
Olympic’s Tye Loan is 13-0 in match play, having lost just seven
games all year. He is the early favorite to win the singles title,
move on to district and make a strong run at the 2A state title in
the spring.
“He’s looking good,” Oly coach Steve Lutz said. “Tye Loan will be
my No. 1.”
North Kitsap (9-2) trails Sequim (10-2) in the team standings by a
half-game. The Vikings are one of the deeper teams headed to the
playoffs. NK coach Jay DeVries is pleased with how well his No. 1
doubles team, Nicky Butler and Josh Benson (13-0) are playing.
DeVries said they could make a strong push toward a state title as
well.
“They might be the best doubles team I’ve ever had,” he said.
“These two are the best. They’re solid. It will be fun to see what
they can do.”
