The Men's tennis team has made tremendous strides in the last two seasons, culminating in its first Mountain Valley Conference Championship in years. In May of 2008, the team placed third in the Regional Championship tournament to eventual National Champion Onondaga Community College and to runner-up Broome Community College by a single point. With an overall match record of 7-3 in 2008, the team looks to take the next step toward a regional title in 2009.
Fielding a mix of international, regional and locally grown talent, HCCC offers a very unique team experience. The team practices informally during the fall semester. Formal tryouts and practices begin in early February. During inclement weather, the team takes full advantage of the indoor gym facilities and track. Indoor nets and balls are used on the synthetic surface in a variety of ways to help players maintain their playing form.
