Four tennis teams from Frisco Independent School District (FISD) have advanced to the area round of the playoffs after a series of matches that saw several district teams competing against each other in the first round.
On Tuesday, October 7, three head-to-head matchups between FISD teams took place in the Class 5A bracket. Centennial, the defending 5A state champion, secured a win over Lone Star. Lebanon Trail defeated Reedy, and Independence triumphed over Wakeland. Panther Creek, competing in the Class 4A bracket, did not play in the first round due to a bye and will also move on to the area round.
The upcoming area-round matches are scheduled for Thursday and Friday, October 9-10. In this round, FISD teams will not compete against each other. Centennial is set to play Anna at 10 a.m. Thursday at Anna High School. Lebanon Trail will face Texarkana Texas High at 11:30 a.m. Friday at Sulphur Springs High School. Independence will compete against Prosper Walnut Grove at 9:30 a.m. Thursday at Memorial High School. Panther Creek will play Godley at 10 a.m. Thursday at Keller Timber Creek High School.
Teams in both the 5A and 4A brackets are aiming to advance to the state tournament, which is scheduled for October 22-23 in Waco.
“Good luck to all the Frisco ISD teams!”
