Two High School Standouts Added To Men's Tennis Roster

KIRKSVILLE, Mo. – Tanner Morris and Pat Spain have been added to the 2012-13 Truman State University Men's Tennis roster.

Morris (Kirkwood, Mo./Kirkwood HS) completed his successful high school career with a 71-12 record as he worked his way up to become Kirkwood's top singles player in his senior season. He won the district singles championships in 2012 and was a first round winner at the state singles tournament. He posted as 14-4 record as a junior playing at number two and was part of a team that reached the state quarterfinals. In the USTA Missouri Valley section, Morris had been ranked in the top 30.

Spain (Alton, Ill./Alton) was an all-state selection for the Redbirds the past three years and earned all-conference first-team accolades in all four seasons at Alton High School. Spain was a four-year all-area player and has been a member of the school's student council, prom court and honor roll.

“Both of these young men will come to Truman with tremendous high school playing experience,” said Head Coach Dan Blodgett. “They will each contribute significantly to our team this upcoming year as freshmen.”
