JENKS, Okla. — Jason Christopherson’s consolation championship at No. 2 singles was the highlight for Enid’s boys at the Jenks tennis tournament Friday.

Christopherson won three matches after a first-round loss, including a 6-2, 6-4 win over Carson Howard of Tulsa Kelley for ninth place.

Zachary Gwin was 15th at No. 1singles. Connor Angleton and Blake Young were 12th at No. 1 doubles. Tyler Hallett and Zac Kensinger were 16th at No. 2 doubles.

Enid coach Darrell Herndon still was encouraged, pointing out everyone had to play up a level after junior standout Daniel Martinez underwent hip flexor surgery.

“We obtained a lot of our goals today,’’ Herndon said. “I’m proud of the way that we performed, especially since we hadn’t played on a tennis court in eight days.’’

Of out of 32 sets played, Enid players only lost two sets 6-0. They went 2-2 in super tiebreakers and lost one 7-6 tiebreaker and two 7-5 sets.

“We wanted to prevent as many 6-0 sets as we could,’’ Herndon said. “We even won one set 6-0.

“These kids have had to make a lot of adjustments, but I feel we can get better with every tournament.’’

The EHS girls go to Jenks today.

Hearing delayed in Gundy, contractor suit
It’s the case of contractor and the coach.
On March 21, 2011, trim carpenter Brent Lee Loveland of Choctaw wore a gray shirt with red lettering that read “Oklahoma Baseball” to Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy’s home, which was under construction near Stillwater.
Gundy and his wife, Kristen, found the shirt offensive and the OSU coach fired Loveland on the spot.
Loveland filed a breach of contract lawsuit in August 2011 against the Gundys in Payne County District Court.
A pretrial hearing scheduled Monday in Logan County has been delayed until July 29 or 30, Loveland’s attorney Edward White of Edmond said Wednesday.
