 Well, softball not the only tournament kicking off tomorrow as the boys individual tennis tournament begins at the baseline tennis center in Minneapolis. Nick Bifo will be representing Bemidji. The Italian foreign exchange student drew the third seated player in the field. Bifo battled through an ankle injury this year, but says that thanks to the training staff and his coach, he's ready to go. It was kind of hard because I spent my ankle three weeks before going to sections, so it was pretty hard, but then we worked with Mark and TJ, and we did really good work. So now I feel good. He's not really feeling any pressure. He I think goes in unseated, and so, you know, you just go in no expectations, and I think that's a great advantage sometimes for a player, whereas some of the top kids, top five, six kids will come in knowing that there's a lot of expectations, a lot of pressure on them. So I think Nick's in a good place. He'll take on Maxime Zagrebelny of Egan. Bifo not the only local player who qualified. Tanner Lundberg of Brainerd is back for his third straight state tournament. He'll take on Stuart Morrell.
