Lima Shawnee 5, Lehman Catholic 0

The Cavaliers lost a match on Tuesday in Lima.

Angela Brunner lost 6-0, 6-0 at first singles. Ann Deafenbaugh lost 6-0, 6-0 at second singles and Mary Lins lost 6-0, 6-0 at third singles. Taylor Reineke and Liann Trahey lost 6-0, 6-0 at first doubles and Macie Verdeir and Madi Gleason lost 6-0, 6-0 at second doubles.

“That’s a top 15 Division II team in the state,” Lehman coach Tim Ungericht said. “They have a girl at first doubles who played first singles for them as a freshman and a sophomore who was a sectional singles champion. It’s the first time we haven’t won a single game in a match since Aug. 2015, my second match as girls coach. Their second through four players would be a strong No. 1 singles player anywhere else.”
