Academy Park keeps cruising

Having already qualified for the district singles tournament and locked down the Del Val League team title, Lattana Sithara and Vicky Outland helped their mates take care of some unfinished business, as Academy Park blanked Chichester, 5-0, to improve to 14-0 overall and 8-0 in the league.

Sithara rolled at first singles, 6-1, 6-0, and Outland dominated at No. 2, 6-0, 6-2. After closing out league play Wednesday against Chester, the pair is set to compete in the District One tournament Thursday. Academy Park will represent the Del Val in the District One team tourney scheduled for Monday.
