Always a great experience at state girls tennis, when you consider that over 1000 girls participate in tennis across the state of Iowa. Elizabeth Grinnall and Tenley Cewe were a part of the elite 16 players, an accomplishment in itself. Elizabeth fought hard against the first seed having some amazing points and lost in consolation match in a super tiebreaker to finish a great legacy of tennis at Clinton. Tenley Cewe, a sophmore won her first round before going down to Debuque Seniors player, who finished 3rd in the state tournament. Tenley then beat Dowling Cathloic, followed by a supertiebreaker loss 11-9 to Pleasant Valley, and finally beating the Johnston girl in a supertiebreaker 13-11 to finish 7th in the state tournament. Amazing season girls! When the Queens go to state, every tennis player is a part of their success! Thank you girls for another successful season!!!
