SCARBOROUGH – Last season, the Scarborough boys tennis team got all the way to the Class A Western regional final before the Storm’s title run was derailed by Windham.
While the Eagles won’t be there, the Storm will get another crack at the regional final this week as they face No. 1 Kennebunk, who knocked off the defending state champion Eagles to set up the date with the Storm. The regional final was set for Bates College on Wednesday, a match played after the Current’s deadline.
On Monday, the Red Storm had very little trouble in its semifinal match with No. 6 Deering, beating the Rams 5-0.
Scarborough wrapped up the win with straight set singles wins from Alex Henny, Dennis Liu and Andrew Talbot.

But it’s not just the Storm boys who have booked a date in the regional finals this week. The fourth-ranked Scarborough girls will be looking to capture a Western title this week thanks to a 4-1 upset of No. 1 Cheverus on Monday.
The Storm were set to take on No. 3 Gorham at Bates College on Wednesday in a match that was also played after the Current’s deadline.
Against the Stags on Monday, the Storm swept its three singles matches, with Jenna Posey and Racheal Webber coming up with big wins to help lead the Storm to victory.
