Tennis Duo Finish In Top Eight At State

After defeating Royal High School’s Madi Christensen and Cambelle Anderson 6-2, 6-2 in the opening round of State, Eatonville’s double duo of Erin Mitchell and Cassidy Foster lost their quarterfinals match to Freeman High School’s Abby Bryant and Ashley Boswell 6-1, 6-1. That loss to them out of contention for the State title and they found themselves in the consolation bracket looking to battle for a third-place finish at best.

Unfortunately, the duo of Avery Ma and Jazmyn Stone from Annie Wright High School ended that quest by defeating the Cruiser duo 6-1, 6-2 eliminating them from the tournament.

They would finish as one of the top 8 teams in the entire state.

Head Coach Alex Christensen was very proud and very complimentary of his doubles team.

“Both girls were fighters. They would never quit, despite being down games or injured. That toughness is one thing that I'll remember from this duo. As talented as tennis players, they were more special as people. They were tremendous Senior leaders, and I feel so grateful that I was able to coach them”.
