MOBILE – The AHSAA's 2025 Class 7A State Tennis Championships at Mobile Tennis Center turned out to be a repeat of sorts of the 2024 state finals.
     Vestavia Hills' Luke Bedwell captured the Class 7A Boys' No. 1 singles crown for the second year in a row.
    And the Vestavia Hills boys' and girls' tennis teams repeated as champions – thanks to a strong lineup that captured four girls' singles titles and all three doubles championships, and the Rebels' boys won five individual singles flight championships and all three doubles titles as well.
    The Vestavia boys, coached by Oliver Aaron, finished with 57 points – more than doubling runner-up Montgomery Academy, which totaled 26 points to edge past Florence (24) and Hoover (23).
    Bedwell (28-1) beat the Eagles' John Alford (36-5) to claim the top singles title 6-1/6-3. He teamed with No. 3 singles champion Louis Kolettis (26-4) to win the No. 1 doubles title as well –beating Hoover's duo of Chen Joiner and Cade Black in a very tough final, 6-12/4-6/10-5. No. 2 singles champ Andrew Pipkin (22-1) joined with No. 5 singles champ Daniel Cather (25-4) to win the No. 2 doubles title. Ben Cusmariu and Parker Liu won at No. 3 doubles. Duncan McInnis (14-1) also won the No. 6 singles flight.
    Vestavia Hills' girls, Timarie Fisk, also claimed singles championships with Kenley Outzen (22-4) at No, 3; Caroline Helms (23-3) at No. 4; Peyton Standifer (19-0) at No. 5; and Kitty Watts (24-1) at No. 6 – and Vestavia swept all three doubles titles.
