Big wins for girls tennis; many athletic events cancelled due to air quality

The devastating fires in the North Bay resulted in terrible air quality in the South Bay, forcing the cancellation of many Harker athletic events last week. Here are the results for the games that were played, as well as the schedule for this week’s action.

Girls Tennis

Last week, the girls tennis team defeated Scotts Valley and Crystal Springs Uplands, both 7-0, improving its record to 9-3 on the season. This week, the girls host Pinewood on Tuesday before traveling to Castilleja on Wednesday.
