It was Senior Night and three Southeastern junior varsity seniors also got wins, Teddy Houseman, Sean Theirion De Monclin and Mario Dela Pena.
“It was disappointing to lose the match tonight, but was good to see our three senior varsity players pick up wins on Senior Night,” said Royals coach Kirk Webber. “And our JV seniors (Teddy, Sean, and Mario) also picked up wins. So that was a special way to end Senior Night. This is a great group of seniors and it was very enjoyable to honor them and their families tonight.”
Southeastern is 8-7 and hosts Park Tudor Monday in its final regular-season match.
Guerin Catholic, ranked No. 30, also dropped a close Wednesday match, to No. 11 Zionsville 3-2 in its regular-season finale.
