Boys Tennis Returns to State Championship

The Kent Denver boys tennis team is one victory away from its fifth consecutive team state championship! After beating D’Evelyn 5-2 in the semifinals on Tuesday, the No. 1 Sun Devils will now play against No. 2 Colorado Academy this coming Tuesday, October 21 at 12:15 p.m. at Denver Tennis Park in the CHSAA 4A Team State Championship. It’s a rematch of last year’s state title showdown, which Kent Denver won 4-2.

Before team competition, however, our players are vying for individual state titles Thursday through Saturday, taking place at Pueblo City Park Tennis Courts. Good luck to Noah ’27 (No. 1 Singles); Liam ’26 (No. 2 Singles); Vyaan ’28 (No. 3 Singles); Reid ’26 and Levi ’27 (No. 1 Doubles); Jake ’29 and Noah ’29 (No. 2 Doubles); Ollie ’27 and Sohan ’27 (No. 3 Doubles); and Suleman ’26 and Danny ’26 (No. 4 Doubles) at the CHSAA 4A Individual State Tournament! 

Last week, the Kent Denver field hockey team won another game in overtime—the third of the season!—in a 2-1 victory over Denver East. Next up is a huge matchup against Cherry Creek Thursday at 4 p.m. at the Stutler Bowl in a battle of the top two ranked teams in the state. 

The KDS volleyball team notched a big 3-2 win last Thursday against Eagle Ridge. The team is back in action Thursday at Jefferson Academy at 6 p.m., where a win would improve the Sun Devils to 9-9 on the season.
