Golden Weekend for Brentwood Athletes
The Brentwood Senior Tennis team defeated 5 other teams to win the 2010 Island Tennis Championships. The team got off to a slow start in the morning losing to St. Michael's University School, however, they rebounded to defeat Lambrick Park School of Victoria 9 sets to 2. This placed them 2nd in their pool and matched them with Glenlyon Norfolk in the semi-finals. The team played hard and defeated GNS 8 sets to 3. This set up a final match with Shawnigan Lake School who had defeated SMU in the other semi-final. The final was a tightly contested event with 4 of the sets going to a tie-breaker. The Brentwood team played tough and won all of the tie breakers to defeat Shawnigan 6 sets to 5 and claim the island championship. The team will travel to the provincial championships in Vancouver at the end of May.
