HHI Teams Sweep Super Senior 70s State Championships at Wild Dunes

ISLE OF PALMS SC (TENNIS E-News via TennisLink) – Hilton Head Island league teams completed a clean sweep of the 70s division today at the South Carolina Super Senior State Championships at Wild Dunes, Isle of Palms. The HHI teams today won top titles in the Men’s and Women’s 3.0s and Men’s 3.5s, having already won the Women’s 3.5 Friday.

The 60s championships will be on the line Sunday morning and afternoon, with HHI and Coastal Carolina teams in the hunt. The Men’s 4.0 Port Royal and Women’s 4.0 Port Royal Senior Moments are in the early finals. 60s semifinalists include Men’s 3.5 Long Cove Super Retreads, Women’s 3.0 SC Yacht Hot Flashes and Moss Creek Powershots, Women’s 3.5 Dataw Dixies. In addition, the 3.0 Men’s 75 Sea Pines Country Club need just one team win Sunday for that championship in the first year of that division at States.

A Hilton Head Island champion was a certainty in the 70s Men’s 3.0 as HHI #1/Sea Pines Imposters and HHI #1/Spring Lake Cruisers reached the final. The Imposters lived up to the ranking by winning the final 2-1. The 70s Women’s 3.0 Sun City Golden Girls ran the table of their round robin, clinching it with a 2-1 final win over Mid-Carolina’s Ladies of the Lake Plus. In the Men’s 3.5, Indigo Run took that championship in a 2-1 final over Lowcountry’s #1 Seabrook Greys. The Port Royal Killer Bees won the 70s Women’s 3.5 title Friday.

All told, 28 Hilton Head Island and Coastal Carolina teams are competing, including the Men’s 2.5s who will play early next week. In 2003, when the first Super Senior States was held, 48 total teams competed. This year’s championships has 92 (including the 2.5s).
