The high school boys tennis season is being played in Michigan, but the state tournament will look different after the Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) this month approved a one-year adjusted state tournament format with less venues and condensed dates.
Postseason play will begin with one-day team district tournaments being played on Oct. 7-10 at 16 sites per division with the team finals of Divisions 1-4 to be played Oct. 15-17. For the division’s finals, the first rounds will be played at four sites before the semi-finalists come together to play at one site.
The following week, Oct. 22-24, during a one-day tournament to crown a champion in all four divisions, 32 No. 1 singles players will face-off in bracketed play to decide the singles champions.
The MHSAA believes these changes will limit the number of teams playing at a single site to help prevent the potential spread of COVID-19.
