The Willow Springs High School tennis team championed over the Waynesville team Tuesday, August 31, at Waynesville. “Great opening win for the team and hopefully a jumping off point for the rest of the season.  Alicen Rothermich is playing without an ACL, but still contributing.  We have some exciting young hitters who have the ability to make this a deep team,” Coach Marty Spence explained.
