PREP TENNIS

Centralia 4, Aberdeen 2

Aberdeen lost four of six matches in a 4-2 loss to Centralia on Wednesday in Aberdeen.

Bobcats singles player Madi Ritter won her match as did the doubles team of Kimberly Membreno and Natalie Mareth.

Aberdeen head coach Ashley Kohlmeier noted the play of her top singles player, Sophie Knutson, who played what she called her third “marathon” match in as many days.

”While the results aren’t quite what we are looking for, I’m glad she is getting this level of competition as we gear up for postseason,” Kohlmeier said of Knutson. “I was very impressed with our wins from Madi Ritter and Mareth and Membreno. That doubles match was close from the first point and I’m proud of the girls for digging in and pulling out the victory in three very close sets.”
