The Madera South Stallions boys tennis gathers after winning the North Yosemite League title for the program’s first-ever league championship. The Stallions went undefeated this season, and in the NYL. They claimed the Most Valuable Player, Coach of the Year, Individual championship and Doubles championship.

Not only did the Madera South Stallions romp its way through the North Yosemite League, the team also swept the end of the seasons awards.

Stallions’ No. 1 player Kevin Franco-Rodriguez was named the league’s Most Valuable Player, and first-year head coach Nathan Melchor was the league’s Coach of the Year.

Melchor and Franco-Rodriguez helped lead the Stallions to many firsts this season. They were the first Stallions’ team to finish the regular season undefeated, going 17-0. Obviously, they went undefeated in the NYL, and captured the program’s first league title.
