The state rankings for Class 2A boys tennis show Matthew Fullerton of Edina first and Collin Beduhn of Wayzata second.
Rematch ahead: Tennis players Matthew Fullerton of Edina, Collin Beduhn of Wayzata to meet again
No. 1 ranked Fullerton won the Class 2A title last spring in a match against Bedihn that lasted more than four hours. Here's where to see them play in Edina.
Those were released Monday by the Minnesota Tennis Coaches Association, just in time for developments of Tuesday to potentially change all that.
Fullerton, the defending state champion, and Beduhn, the runner-up who pushed Fullerton for more than four hours in the 2022 state final before losing 7-6, 6-7, 7-6, will meet at No. 1 singles in an Edina-Wayzata dual scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. Tuesday at Creek Valley Elementary School in Edina.
Fullerton and Beduhn are regular practice partners and will be teammates next season at Wisconsin.
Their high school teams are also Nos. 1 and 2. Edina holds the top ranking.
