The Monroe Varsity tennis team has been on a roller coaster season this year, with surprises around every corner. The starting line-up has gone through many different alterations, but the semiconcrete roles are as follows: Michael Pope at first singles, Erin Smith at second singles, Joe Irwin at third singles, Adam Wilson/Richard Irwin at first doubles, and Derek Garde/Will Garde at second doubles.

The most variation occurs in the second doubles position. Jeremy Brown and Kelli McCreight have both played as starting lineup in the second doubles position. The April 14 match against Northwest was a loss with a score of Northwest 4, Monroe 1. Michael Pope won his match. On April 15 and 16, Monroe lost to both Waynesville and Wyoming with scores of 5-0 and 5-0 respectively. On April 21, the Hornet tennis team faced Franklin and lost 5-0. The team has pulled away with a 2-8 season so far with several more matches to go. Go Hornets!
