Lyme-Old Lyme High School senior Morgan White became the Shoreline Conference boy’s singles tennis champion for the third year in succession last Thursday when he defeated Kyle Peterson of Valley in straight sets, 7-5, 6-4. White had taken three sets to beat Peterson in the regular season.
White recorded an extraordinary unbeaten season at 18-0 and now anxiously awaits the CIAC Class S state tournament, in which he has been defeated in the final the past two years.
Morgan’s younger brother, Brendan — a freshman at Lyme-Old Lyme High School — is also a talented tennis player and recorded a 19-1 season in the second spot on the team .
