The Republic girls tennis team overcame an evening of unforced errors to edge Bolivar and stay undefeated. The Lady Tigers won four of six singles matches and two of three doubles matches to take the victory 6-3.
Coach Eric Hanson says the win was “very ugly,” and much closer than the score indicates.
“Bolivar did a great job putting tennis balls back in play. We continue to make too many mistakes,” says Hanson.
Samantha Minor (8-6), Danielle Hopkins (8-6), Michaela Moore (8-1), and Ta’lor Sandul (8-3) were all winners in singles. In doubles, Moore and Hopkins, and Rebecca Ledford and Sandul won their matches 8-6.
