Bulldogs drop meet against South Hardin

HAMPTON – Survival of the fittest.
When Hampton-Dumont’s Edgar Romo was warming up for his No. 3 singles tennis match against Ben Stanish of South Hardin on Monday, April 27, the two were comparing notes on who was less fit.
Even though Edgar Romo is a two-sport athlete this Spring, also competing for coach Steve Winsor’s CAL/H-D/B-K boys’ soccer team, Romo insisted he was less in shape.
After by far the longest match of the meet in which Romo had led 7-3 only to allow Stanish to rally and tie it at 9, he could have been right; giving up the next two games to fall 11-9.
