HHI, CCTA Teams Set for Super Senior State Championships Starting Thursday
HILTON HEAD ISLAND SC (TENNIS E-News) – Split of the local USTA League into Hilton Head Island and Coastal Carolina divisions will take the next step in its manifestation next weekend as champions from each program head for South Carolina Super Senior State Championships at Wild Dunes, Isle of Palms. Match play begins Thursday in Super Senior 70s and will run through Saturday; SS60s will run Friday-Sunday.
Up until now, teams from both sides of The Bridge battled out during the season, with the top one or two going to States. Now, with HHI and CCTA, more teams are tripping to the championships. And, yes, TENNIS E-News will make an attempt at covering all of them. Being a transitional stage, not all divisions were split for the fall season, particularly on the top and bottom rating rungs. The SS 60s 2.5 division, for instance, played under the CCTA wing. As it turned out, only two local teams entered for States – Moss Creek and Country Club of Hilton Head -- and, since both are from our area, they will face off against each other here in a best-of-three playoff.
So, here are the TAHHI and CCTA teams going to States, listed with their captains:
