The Owensboro Times is announcing its 2025 All-OT Boys’ and Girls’ Tennis Teams, featuring athletes from our coverage area.
The Tennis Athletes of the Year were awarded at the OT sports banquet in early May. Owensboro Catholic’s Ella Cason was named the girls’ winner and Owensboro’s John Clay Ford was the boys’ winner.
Schools in Owensboro Times’ coverage area include Apollo, Daviess County, Hancock County, McLean County, Owensboro, Owensboro Catholic, and Trinity. Owensboro Times relied primarily on nominations/votes by coaches to determine the All-Coverage Teams and Players of the Year.
