The Cypress Woods High School mixed doubles team of Kourtney Howell and Gus Underwood was runner-up in the Region II-5A Tennis Championships in Waco this week, qualifying the pair for the
State Championships on May 11-12 at the Penick-Allison Courts in Austin.
Howell and Underwood, both juniors, won three consecutive matches in straight sets before falling to Zach Martinez and Rachael Reed of The Woodlands, 6-4, 6-4 in the finals. They then defeated a team from Round Rock Stony Point, 6-1, 6-5 in the playback match to secure their spot at state.
“I’m proud of Kourtney and Gus. They’ve represented us well all year,” said Cypress Woods coach Tim Calhoun. “They were seeded second and had chances but missed out by a couple points here and there. They stepped up on that playback and dominated like they are capable of doing.”
