The state ranked Dripping Springs Tigers tennis team Monday wasted little time in punching its ticket to the second round of the playoffs.
A dominant effort led Dripping Springs to a 13-2 win over the McCallum Knights in the bi-district round of the UIL Class 5A team tennis playoffs.
With the win, Dripping Springs advances to play the winner of Richmond Foster and San Antonio Harlan in the second round. A time and date for the area round matchup has not yet been determined.
Boosting the Tigers was a sweep of the girls singles, along with a sweep of the girls doubles.
