District Champions! What a season! The PHTH 2.5 Women dominated their competition with 7 wins and only 1 loss during the season. As League Champions they advanced to District Playoffs where, once again, they ruled the competition by winning all three of their matches! The team headed to State Playoffs to face West Hills Athletic Club/Kalamazoo for the State title. Two of the three courts ended up in a third set super-breaker, and after close battles the team narrowly missed the win. Unbelievable season, 2.5 Women – be proud of your efforts!

2019 WINTER 9.0 MIXED 40 & OVER

League Champs! Going into the final match, the team was in a must-win-all-3-courts situation. Plus, the last place team needed to win their final match to push the PHTH into first. Both of those happened, so the PHTH edged ahead to win by one individual/court win. Congrats! Districts will be held at Wessen Indoor Tennis in Pontiac on April 27th — good luck!
