Lewis holding his own in tough conference for Eckerd tennis

Playing in one of the toughest divisions in NCAA D2 tennis, Eddie Lewis of Anchorage is more than holding his own in the Sunshine State Conference.

He’s thriving.

The Eckerd College senior has been especially good in the month of March with a combined 9-2 record in singles and doubles for the NCAA D2 school in Florida.

Lewis, of South High fame, is playing No. 2 singles and has posted a 6-3 record, including 5-1 in March.

His most memorial win of the season came against Florida Southern when he rallied for a 0-6, 6-3, 10-2 victory in an epic comeback.

He’s 4-4 at No. 3 doubles, including a 4-1 mark this month.
