Just Happened ... 

EAGLES WIN 13th STRAIGHT MATCH: Delta limited Muncie Burris to a total of just seven games in the semifinals of the Delta Sectional on Thursday evening. The Eagles, on a 13-match winning streak, now will play Yorktown for the championship at 11 a.m. Saturday.

Callie Worthington and the doubles teams of Marissa Morris-Natalie Alexander and Teaghan Dishman-Lynne Costello all won by 6-0, 6-0 scores.

Morris and Alexander collected their 20th win of the season against only two losses.

Worthington is 18-3.  Costello and Dishman are 17-2.

Ashley Loffer won 6-3, 6-1 at No. 1 singles to move to 12-10.  Madison Ashman won 6-1, 6-2 at No. 2 singles and is 19-3.

Delta (18-1) will try for its 20th sectional title in the last 21 years.

For details of the match, see the LATEST MATCH RESULTS box below.

EAGLES ELIMINATE BEARCATS:
Delta shut out Muncie Central 5-0 in the opening round of the Delta Sectional on Wednesday afternoon.  Two matches went to three sets, but Ashley Loffer won 6-2 in the third set at No. 1 singles and Lynne Costello-Teaghan Dishman won 6-0 in the third set of No. 2 doubles.

First off the court was Madison Ashman, who won 6-4, 6-0 over Meghan Jackson at No. 2 singles.  Next to finish was Callie Worthington, who won 6-2, 6-1 over Audrey Kirby at No. 3 singles.

Clinching the match with a third position victory was the No. 1 doubles team of Natalie Alexander and Marissa Morris.  They beat Natalie Cunningham and Taylor Rabel 6-3, 6-2.  This was the night's marquee matchup as Alexander and Morris entered with an 18-2 record and Cunningham and Rabel entered with a 15-1 record.

Delta (17-1) will take a 12-match winning streak into the sectional semifinals against Muncie Burris at 4:45 p.m. Thursday.

ANOTHER GOOD ROAD WIN FOR DELTA:
The girls' tennis team finished an outstanding regular season with another hard-fought road win over a quality opponent.

The Eagles made the long journey to Fort Wayne Concordia, where they played the 26th-ranked Saints on their Senior Night.  Due to the long ride and late start, the Eagles chose to go without the normal 20-25 minute hitting practice prior to official warmup.

Still, the girls dug deep and pulled out a 3-2 victory to finish the regular season with a 16-1 record.

It was the third victory over a state-ranked opponent this season (Bishop Chatard, FW Carroll, and FW Concordia).  The Eagles' only loss was to state-ranked Terre Haute North in a tight 3-2 decision.

Delta takes an 11-match winning streak into the sectional.

EAGLES WIN CONFERENCE TITLE AND TOURNEY TITLE ON SAME DAY!:  The girls' tennis team enjoyed an extremely rare day Saturday by winning Delta Invitational and Hoosier Heritage Conference championships on the same day!

Here's how it happened:

Saturday morning, the Eagles defeated Shelbyville 5-0 to wrap up a perfect 7-0 league season.  The highlight of the Shelbyville match was No. 1 singles player Ashley Loffer, who rallied from a 3-6, 2-5 deficit to win her match 3-6, 7-5, 6-2. 

After an hour break, the 20th-ranked Eagles played 30th-ranked Fort Wayne Carroll in the finals of the Delta Invitational.  The first two rounds of the 8-team invite were played on April 28, when Delta beat 27th-ranked Bishop Chatard in one semifinal match and Carroll beat 7th-ranked Cathedral in the other semifinal.

Playing its best match of the season, Delta hammered Carroll 4-1. One highlight was Madison Ashman's 6-1, 6-1 win at No. 2 singles.  But the Eagles were sharp everywhere, giving up only 14 games total at No. 2 singles, No. 3 singles, and both doubles.

On Friday night, the Eagles dominated Rushville 5-0 for another conference win.  The match was the 300th victory in girls' tennis for Coach Cleland, making him the fourth coach in state history to reach 300 or more career wins in both boys' tennis and girls' tennis.

In a four-day stretch, Delta won five matches, beating Yorktown (4-1), Center Grove (3-2), Rushville (5-0), Shelbyvillle (5-0), and FW Carroll (4-1).

EAGLES GET VICTORY OVER CENTER GROVE:
  Delta gained a narrow 3-2 victory over Indianapolis tennis power Center Grove on Thursday at Mt. Vernon courts.  The Eagles lost 0-5 to Center Grove a year ago, so it was a nice turnaround this time. 

Sophomore Madison Ashman's result was an example of that turnaround.  Madison won 6-2, 6-1 at No. 2 singles over a girl that she lost to last spring.  Senior Callie Worthington won 6-0, 6-0 at No. 3 singles and was first off the court.

Juniors Natalie Alexander and Marissa Morris picked up a very big victory at No. 1 doubles by a 6-4, 6-4 score in the last match on the court, breaking a 2-2 team tie.  Natalie and Marissa lost badly at No. 2 doubles a year ago to Center Grove, so it was another big turnaround yesterday for them.  They were playing the same doubles team that beat Delta 6-4, 6-1 last spring.

Delta's varsity moves to 12-1 for the season. 

The JV team lost 6-5 to Center Grove for their first loss of the season.  The JV now is 13-1-1. 
 

EAGLES SMASH CANCER! ... AND SMASH YORKTOWN, TOO!!: The Delta-Yorktown smashcancer match encountered a rain delay of more than hour on Wednesday night at the DHS courts, but in the end there were two winners.  On the court, the Eagles beat the Tigers 4-1 varsity and 12-7 JV.  Off the court, the two rivals combined to raise more than $1,000 for the Amercian Cancer Society Relay for Life program.

All 90+ team members wore special #SmashCancer T-shirts with multiple colors representing a wide range of cancers.  More than 200 additional shirts were sold to students and fans.  The match attracted the largest crowd at a DHS home tennis match in recent memory.

In a ceremony prior to the match, several cancer survivors and family members hit out "honorary first serves."  Breast cancer survivor Beth Parris (whose sons Aaron and Isaac played tennis at DHS); bone cancer survivor Rob Robbins (whose sons Rob and Kelly played tennis at DHS); sarcoma survivor Katy Vasalakis (current top player for Yorktown); and John Thomas Devine, grandson of Delta teacher Tom Devine (who passed away from colon cancer in January) hit the honorary first serves.

RAIN + RUSHVILLE = RESCHEDULE:
The match between Delta and Rushville was rained out Monday afternoon.  The teams will now meet at 5 p.m. Friday at Rushville.

JV DOMINATES AT EAST NOBLE INVITE:
The junior varsity team enjoyed a great day Saturday at the East Noble JV Invitational with victories over Fairfield (5-0), East Noble (4-1) and Fort Wayne Canterbury (5-0).  The JV team now boasts a 12-0-1 record.
 
SENIORS SHINE ON SENIOR DAY:
The Eagles smacked Pendleton Heights 7-0 to celebrate Senior Day on a very warm Thursday evening.  Pendleton won only a half-dozen games in the seven matches.

Seniors collected victories throughout the lineup.  Senior Callie Worthington won at No. 3 singles; seniors Lynne Costello and Megan Buckner teamed up to win at No. 2 doubles; senior Alexa Lewis was successful in her first-ever varsity match (teaming with junior Jenny Wegener at No. 3 doubles); and senior exchange student Isabela Zanelato got a victory at No. 4 singles.

The 18-th ranked varsity improved to 10-1.

The JV team prevailed 7-2 and remained unbeaten at 9-0-1 this spring.

EAGLES EDGE 27TH-RANKED BISHOP CHATARD:
The Eagles claimed their first victory over a state-ranked team this season by edging 27th-ranked Indianapolis Bishop Chatard 3-2 in Saturday's semifinals of the Delta Invitational.

Also in the invitational, Delta swept Batesville 5-0.  The championship match against Fort Wayne Carroll was postponed due to weather.  The teams are trying to make up the match on May 12, but it is not yet official. Carroll upended 7th-ranked Indianapolis Cathedral 3-2 in the semifinals after beating Yorktown 4-1 in the opening round.

At the halfway point of the season, Delta owns an 8-1 record, stands in first place in the Hoosier Heritage Conference, and is ranked 19th.  The JV team is 7-0-1. 

SUCCESSFUL TRIP TO CRAWFORDSVILLE:
The Eagles performed well on April 21 at the powerful eight-team Crawfordsville Invitational.  Delta reached the finals in three of the five flights and placed third in the other two flights.  The tournament featured two of Indiana's top seven teams.

The day's highlight belonged to sophomore Madison Ashman, who upended Floyd Central's Carmen Schreiber at No. 2 singles, 6-3, 4-6, (10-4).  Floyd Central, ranked third in the state, won the invitational.  They eliminated Delta in the IHSAA State Finals last spring and returned all varsity players from that team.

The Eagles finished runner-up at No. 2 singles, No. 3 singles, and No. 1 doubles and placed third at No. 1 singles and No. 2 doubles.  For the team, the Eagles won 10 matches and lost 5.

EAGLES WIN ON TEACHER APPRECIATION DAY:
The varsity Eagles topped Mt. Vernon 4-1 on Wednesday, April 18 in a Teacher Appreciation Day match.  Delta improved to 4-0 overall and 2-0 in the Hoosier Heritage Conference.

About 20 teachers, administrators, and staff members were honored before the match as each team member selected a favorite adult to recognize.  Students in the top 25% of the class rankings and/or on the latest Honor Roll also were recognized at the pre-match ceremony.



DHS TENNIS RAISES OVER $3,000 AT FIRST DINNER!!!:
We got off to a great start with the Delta Tennis Community Service Dinner Club, which is an ambitious new project in which the tennis families will gather to support local charities.

The first dinner on Friday, April 6 attracted between 80 and 100 people to the home of Mike and Wynde Ashman in Landings Trail addition. 

Counting a late donation early this week, we raised $1,150 for Blood 'N' Fire Ministries of Muncie!  Delta graduate Bob Ball, director of Blood 'N' Fire, explained what the ministry does and how it can use the money.

In addition to the generous donation to Blood 'N' Fire, we also raised $2,000 through raffles, auctions, and contributions to Coach Cleland's new Delta Tennis Leadership/Service Scholarship fund. This scholarship for DHS seniors will be administered through the Delaware Community Schools Educational Foundation.

Also, we had a pleasant surprise visit from Seren Frost, a Delta graduate who runs L.A.C.E.S., a not-for-profit group that uses soccer to minister to war-ravaged Liberia.  James, the Liberian director of L.A.C.E.S., also attended the dinner and spoke to our group about his experiences as a child soldier in the 14-year Liberian civil war. This was his first visit to the United States.

Former DHS Tennis standout Stephen Hopkins, songwriter for the band When, Not If, played guitar and sang several original songs as well as two covers.  He was well-received by teens and parents alike.

We will be doing four dinners per year -- Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.  Each dinner will rotate to a different teammate's home. We expect this to develop into a major tradition of helping those in our community.

Wynde Ashman and Al Holdren are coordinating the details of the dinners, with help from Coach Cleland and other parents.

This year's girls' tennis team theme is "First Serve" (logo above).  We are excited about the opportunity to serve others first!

ZACH ERVIN GETS VICTORY OVER BALL STATE:
Former DHS Tennis star Zach Ervin, now a senior member of Butler University's men's tennis team, recently picked up a victory at No. 4 singles against Ball State.  He beat Alexander Brym in a third-set tiebreaker. Zach was the only winner for the Bulldogs.




HAYLEY HALL, TAYLOR CARDINI JOIN COACHING STAFF: Two new assistant coaches have been hired for the 2012 girls' tennis season.  Former DHS Tennis players Hayley Hall and Taylor Cardini are serving as assistant coaches this spring.

Hayley is a 2007 graduate who was a four-time All-State Singles player and a three-time State Singles finalist. Runner-up in the State Singles as a junior, Hayley is the all-time career victory leader for DHS Tennis.  Her junior tennis career included national rankings and multiple sportsmanship awards at major tournaments throughout the Midwest. She went on to play No. 1 singles at Ball State University, where she currently is in graduate school.  She has taught tennis in Chicago and at the Muncie Family YMCA as well as the Tim Cleland Tennis Camp.

Taylor is a 2010 graduate.  She was a varsity doubles player at Delta and has been a frequent instructor at the Tim Cleland Tennis Camp and at middle school tennis clinics.  She is the 2010 recipient of the Grandma Peggy Brown Spirit of Caring Award for DHS Tennis. Taylor is a sophomore at Ball State in elementary education.



     

ETHAN/EVAN FINISH THIRD AT STATE FINALS and MAKE ALL-STATE DOUBLES FIRST TEAM!: Senior Ethan Grove and junior Evan Rodenberger concluded a great season by finishing third in the IHSAA State Doubles Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 22 at Park Tudor HS courts.

Ethan and Evan defeated Plymouth 6-1, 6-2 in Friday night's quarterfinals.  They lost 4-6, 2-6 to Floyd Central in Saturday morning's semifinals.  They then gained a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Evansville North in Saturday afternoon's third-place match.

Ethan and Evan finished 28-3.  Also on Saturday, they were selected to the All-State Doubles First Team, which is an honor reserved for only the Top 10 doubles teams in the state.

This represents the 20th time during Coach Cleland's 39 seasons as DHS Tennis boys' and girls' coach that a season has ended at the State Finals (team, singles, or doubles). 

Here are the Eagles' previous best finishes during Coach Cleland's tenure:

State Team Finals (four times at State) -- best finish is third twice

State Doubles (12 times at State) -- best finish is runner-up four times and third four times

State Singles (seven times at State) -- best finish is runner-up once and third once.

TWO MORE WINNERS IN e.a.g.l.e.s. CHARACTER PROGRAM: On Monday, May 14, two players became the next recipients of special T-shirts in Delta Tennis Coach Tim Cleland's new character development program, called e.a.g.l.e.s.  Players are recognized for their skills in the areas of Effort, Attitude, Generosity, Leadership, Enthusiasm, and Service. 

Junior Sam Zachary was honored for Leadership.  The charismatic Sam won 16 matches this spring, primarily at No. 2 singles JV.  She works hard and is fun to be around.

Senior Isabela Zanelato was honored for Attitude.  Isabela, an exchange student from Brazil, genuinely enjoyed matches and practices and got steadily better throughout the season.  She won against some solid opponents late in the season and finished with a great record and a lot of wonderful memories!

Dri-fit T-shirts featuring the below design will be awarded to selected players each week prior to practice or matches.  The T-shirts are in a variety of colors. 

This program replaces the school's Building Foundations program, which is no longer offered.  "We've got a lot of players who do some amazing things on and off the court, and we need to be sure to constantly point out what they're doing right," Coach Cleland said.

   Latest Match Updates

DELTA 5  MUNCIE BURRIS 0

Delta is now two-thirds of the way complete in its quest for its 20th sectional title in the last 21 years.

After a 5-0 shutout of Muncie Central in the opening round of the Delta Sectional on Wednesday afternoon, the Eagles posted another 5-0 shutout over Muncie Burris in Thursday's semifinals.

Next up will be rival Yorktown at 11 a.m. Saturday for the title.  Delta has won every sectional since 1992 except for 2010, when Yorktown took the title.

Setting the tone against Burris was the No. 1 doubles team of Natalie Alexander and Marissa Morris.  They served well and played aggressive on their way to a 6-0, 6-0 victory. 

Teaghan Dishman and Lynne Costello also won 6-0, 6-0 at No. 2 doubles.  Callie Worthington won by the same score at No. 3 singles.

Also winning were Ashley Loffer (6-3, 6-1) and Madison Ashman (6-1, 6-2).

Delta's records:
Ashley Loffer 12-10 at 1s
Madi Ashman 19-3 at 2s
Callie Worthington 18-3 at 3s
Alexander/Morris 20-2 at 1d
Costello/Dishman 17-2 at 2d

Delta (18-1) will take a 13-match winning streak into the sectional championship match. The Eagles have won by a 5-0 shutout 10 times this season.

DELTA 3 FW CONCORDIA 2

The girls' tennis team finished an outstanding regular season with another hard-fought road win over a quality opponent.

The Eagles made the long journey to Fort Wayne Concordia, where they played the 26th-ranked Saints on their Senior Night.  Due to the long ride and late start, the Eagles chose to go without the normal 20-25 minute hitting practice prior to official warmup.

Still, the girls dug deep and pulled out a 3-2 victory to finish the regular season with a 16-1 record.

It was the third victory over a state-ranked opponent this season (Bishop Chatard, FW Carroll, and FW Concordia).  The Eagles' only loss was to state-ranked Terre Haute North in a tight 3-2 decision.

In the victory over Concorida, doubles led the way as Natalie Alexander/Marissa Morris and Lynne Costello/Teaghan Dishman won 6-1, 6-1 and 6-3, 6-3, respectively.

Madison Ashman finished the victory with a 6-3, 7-5 win at No. 2 singles.

Callie Worthington lost a long third-set tiebreaker to Concordia's Lauren Marinko, a basketball star for the Saints.  Ashley Loffer fell to the Saints' strong senior Margaret Fritz at No. 1 singles.


The JV team won 10-2 to conclude an excellent season of 17 wins, 1 loss (5-6 to Center Grove) and one tie.

Maggie Thompson won again at No. 1 singles and finished 24-1.  Sam Zachar pulled out a tiebreaker win; Maddy Walker and Alexa Lewis rallied for an 8-6 win; Becca Schooley and Sara Wright also squeaked out an 8-6 win; and many other Eagles won more easily.  Kaylee Allen, Shelby Richardson, Jacey Price, Isabela Zanelato, Megan Buckner, Jenny Wegener, Kat Smith, and Kaylin Gibson were other winners.

"MATCH POINTE"
TENNIS PAVILION
PROJECT
Jared Bullock's updated drawing of the DHS Tennis Shelterhouse.



  
DOWNLOAD FORM TO DONATE

    Our new shelterhouse has a name: the Match Pointe Tennis Pavilion.  Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on name ideas.

On Nov. 19, 2009, the posts and trusses were put into place for the new Delta Tennis shelterhouse!  This date is special because it is the birthday of Grandma Peggy Brown, whose death in October 2008 sparked the inspiration for the building.

There is still much work to do over a long period of time, but the dream is turning into reality!   The facility is open for use (although not finished) and will seat an estimated 100 people.

Almost all funds for the project are being raised through private donations.  Here's how to contribute. We will continue to raise funds as the project is completed in various phases over the next couple of years. 

Our vision for this project is that DHS Tennis will have the finest shelterhouse in East Central Indiana.

Components include permanent seating, ceiling fans, water, electricity, and more.

DHS Tennis receives $4,000 grant from Lowe's for shelterhouse!  See details here
