The Iowa High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) released its annual rankings for boys high school tennis on Monday, showcasing top-performing teams across the state. The rankings reflect the teams’ performances leading up to the state tournament scheduled for next month.

“These rankings are based on matches played, wins, and overall team strength throughout the season,” said IHSAA spokesperson Mark Johnson. “They provide a snapshot of where teams stand as they prepare for the postseason.”

The rankings highlight several teams that have consistently performed well this season, with schools from urban and rural areas making their mark. Notable mentions include Cedar Rapids Washington, who has maintained a strong record, and West Des Moines Valley, known for their competitive edge.

The tennis season in Iowa typically culminates in late May with the state tournament, where top-ranked teams will compete for the championship title. The rankings are determined using a point system based on individual match results and team performance throughout the spring season.

High school tennis in Iowa has seen growth in participation rates, with increasing numbers of schools fielding teams. The IHSAA aims to promote the sport and enhance competitive opportunities for student-athletes across the state.
