Scott City tennis 2nd at home invitational

Scott City, Kan. (westernkansasnews.com)–It was a nice Monday for tennis, as nine schools made up of this years Scott City Invitational meet held at the tennis courts by Scott City Middle School. Two of the schools would find themselves competing for the top spot in the tournament, as Colby would edge defending champion Scott City by one point in the team standings. Greeley County finished in third and Cimarron in fourth. It’s a meet that saw all the GWAC schools compete in, and a good chance that most of the schools would return for not only the GWAC meet October 5, but also regionals on October 9.

Scott City would get wins from both of their doubles teams. The No. 1 Doubles team of Sadie Hermosillo/Bella Myers rallied from a 5-4 deficit in the finals to win their last match and repeat as tournament champions, while the No. 2 Doubles team of Rhiley Stoppel/Madison Westergard won their division. Malorie Cupp took third at No. 1 Singles, and at No. 2 Singles, Laia Mur finished in second.

Scott City will be at the Garden City Invitational on Saturday.
