R-P tennis wins 1st-ever GMAA title

Reeths-Puffer brought home its first-ever GMAA tennis championship Saturday, scoring 48 points to edge Mona Shores by four for the top spot.
The Rockets reached the finals in seven of the eight flights, with Emma Fraser/Lauren Matz taking the No. 2 doubles title. Their performance and that of the six runners-up was enough to earn R-P the historic championship.
Whitehall finished fifth in the tournament with 28 team points.
Fraser/Matz edged Mona Shores’ Isabella Sobczak/Lauren Hall 6-2, 7-5 in the No. 2 doubles finals.
All four Rocket doubles pairs reached the finals. Hope Latsch/Olivia Smith, Gabrielle Borgeson/Malania Eilers and Laura Tejedor/Ava Dietz were runners-up. Brooke Titus, Olivia Harris and Mylie Neel secured second-place finishes in singles play.
Molly Matz, at No. 3 singles, finished in third place with a 2-1 record. That hers was the Rockets’ lowest finish showcased the team’s depth.
For Whitehall, Grace McDowell, Alivia DeWildt and Izzy Gould each went 2-1 at the top three singles flights. Brianna Bentz/Akeelah Martin went 2-1 at No. 1 doubles.
