Brookhaven High senior tennis ace Robert Adcock has found his next home after leaving Ole Brook by recently signing a letter-of-intent with Copiah-Lincoln Community College.
Adcock already has one state championship medal in his career. As a sophomore, he paired with Caroline Kilpatrick to win the MHSAA 5A Mixed Doubles State Championship.
“I’m excited to have Robert join our team,” said CLCC tennis coach Dana Hale. “It’s great when we can sign talented, local players and Robert is certainly one of those. He is fundamentally sound and has great doubles experience. I look forward to coaching our 2023 class of signees.”
BHS tennis alum Logan Case is a freshman on the team this season for Hale. Other local products playing tennis in 2023 for the Wolves include Landon Banes (Brookhaven Academy), Caleb Myers (West Lincoln) and August Sullivan (Brookhaven Academy).
Co-Lin is scheduled to host a tri-match with Holmes and Jones College on Tuesday, Feb. 21. Adcock and his BHS teammates again expect to be among the top teams in 5A tennis this season. The Panthers will host Vicksburg High on Feb. 27 for a match at Brookhill.
