EDWARDSVILLE - Edwardsville reshuffled its spring tennis schedule because of rain, moving matches from the Edwardsville Spring Invite to Friday, April 3, 2026, at the EHS tennis courts, where the Tigers picked up two wins before a loss to John Burroughs.

“We played well on Friday,” Edwardsville coach Dave Lipe said. “Beating Huntley was very positive for us. Our doubles teams were especially strong against them against Burroughs, we fought hard, but they are an excellent team, and they played like it.”

In late March, Edwardsville won the Triad Invite with victories over Dunlap and Lincoln-Way Central. Edwardsville's boys appeared prime for a strong season under Coach Lipe.

Edwardsville is scheduled to play next at home at 3:30 p.m. April 7 against Belleville West.
