Scott City tennis repeats as tournament champions

Scott City, Kan. (westernkansasnews.com)–The third time was the charm for the Scott City Invitational on Monday afternoon.

Three of the teams will also see each other at regionals, which was big in the fact that seeds were up for grabs. In the end, Scott City won the meet, holding off Colby and Meade.
