Thirteen proved to be lucky for Sewickley Academy…or maybe it’s just another notch in their dynasty belt. The Panthers cruised to a 13th straight WPIAL Class AA Boys Team Tennis championship with a sweep of Indiana. The 21st boys tennis crown overall ties the Panthers with the Norwin girls volleyball team from 1974 to 1985 for the second longest consecutive district title run only behind the Bethel Park boys swim team that won 20 straight from 1981 through 2000.
In Class AAA, while Sewickley Academy is used to boys tennis gold, Fox Chapel is celebrating its first ever boys team tennis championship. The Foxes edged the North Allegheny Tigers to claim the schools first boys tennis title.
Joining Fox Chapel and North Allegheny in the Triple-A state playoffs will be Consolation winner Shady Side Academy while Quaker Valley enters the Double-A state playoffs with finalists Sewickley Academy and Indiana. Here are ALL of the results from the 2016 WPIAL Boys Team Tennis Playoffs.
