Tennis, golf tourney roundups: Lehman Catholic girls tennis season ends

0

TROY — With a young team for the most part, Lehman Catholic coach Tim Ungericht felt his team had another solid season.

“We won five matches and we lost four matches 3-2,” Ungericht said. “That is a pretty small margin for error. We are moving in the right direction.”

Charlotte Spaide and Valerie Rindler opened with a 6-2, 7-5 win over Tecumseh and Ashlyn Hamblin and Eliza Westerheide defeated Urbana 6-1, 6-1 before running into buzzsaws from Tippecanoe and losing 6-0, 6-0.

Spaide is a freshman who played first singles all year, while Hamblin and Westerheide was the Cavaliers first doubles team.

“We put Charlotte (Spaide) in doubles, because there just wasn’t a path for her to get out in singles,” Ungericht said. “I really feel like she will be one of the top players in the area next year. Ashlyn and Eliza played together for the second year. It is rare when you are able to do that.

“Tippecanoe is just really good. There was no way for me to avoid them at the draw. I would have like to have gotten down where the fourth seed was, but I didn’t have a chance to do that.”

In singles, Lehman’s Chelsea Mohler lost 6-2, 6-1 to Milton-Union, Brooklyn Fortkamp lost 7-5, 7-5 to Milton-Union and Evelyn Johnston lost 6-5, 7-5 to Milton-Union.
