Elwood Tennis Celebrates Undefeated Season

The Elwood-John H. Glenn High School Boys Varsity tennis team recently took home the title of League II Tennis Champions, with 10th-grader Zak Siddiquia also reaching the Suffolk County Quarterfinal round at this year’s Suffolk County Individual Tennis Championship.

Under the guidance of their coach Frank Schiraldi, the team of 15 was the only team in all of Suffolk County to go undefeated in the regular season.

It was a milestone year for the team who, for the first time in the school’s tennis history, finished their regular season undefeated with an 11-0 record. It was also the first time since 2004 that a player from Elwood-John H. Glenn High School made it to the Suffolk County Quarterfinal round at the Suffolk County Individual Tennis Championship.

Mr. Schiraldi credited the team for all their hard work and dedication throughout the season.

“They demonstrated a strong desire and commitment to be the very best,” he said. “Going undefeated in League II is a tremendous accomplishment for us considering we are playing schools that are three to four times the size of us. I am extremely proud of the boys integrity and class that they showed on and off the court throughout the season.”
