Delta ended a 13-hour day of tennis on Saturday by edging Richmond 3-2 in the championship round of the Delta Invitational.  The event was delayed early in the day by slow-drying courts from overnight rain.

Junior Tanner Southerland gained a 7-6, 7-6 victory at No. 1 singles over a strong opponent to highlight the victory.  Other winners were Daniel Vencel at No. 3 singles and Jaigen Glaze/Walker Boyle at No. 2 doubles.

Both Richmond victories came in very close matches.

Delta  (15-3 overall, 6-0 in the  HHC) will host Mt. Vernon (15-1, 6-0) for the Hoosier Heritage Conference championship on Monday at 4:30 p.m.  The match also will be Senior Day as Devin McKinley, Jaigen Glaze, Mason Knight, Cade Brown and Daniel Vencel will be honored.
