For the second consecutive season, Union’s Jelena Vidovic lost the 4A district championship match to a freshman.
And she’s only a sophomore.
Skyview freshman Sammi Hampton earned the singles title with a 6-3, 6-0 win over Vidovic Monday at the Class 4A district tennis tournament.
Hampton dropped only three games in three matches in the tournament. Battle Ground’s Kylee Breimon earned the district’s third seed to the bi-district tournament with a 6-0, 6-0 win over Skyview’s Rayna Mathis.
Skyview’s Tara Carrie and Kristina Metz also played in their second consecutive district final. But this time, they earned their first championship, beating Battle Ground’s Taylor Beardall and Megan Giesbers, 6-4, 6-2.
Beardall and Giesbers will meet Union’s Rhiannon Morfin and Courtney Newell in a match for the No. 2 seed to the bi-district Tuesday. Both teams will advance to the bi-district.
Skyview captured the team championship.
