Sparta wins SCIL Festival team title; Kittatinny's
Ryba three-peats as No. 1 singles champion
|
Kittatinny's Jennifer Ryba three-peated as the top player in the SCIL while
Sparta edged the Cougars by one point to successfully defend its team championship while claiming its 14th straight
team title in the 2002 SCIL Girls' Tennis Festival held Friday and Saturday in Sparta.
Ryba, a junior, won the No. 1 singles title for a third consecutive year in what was a repeat of last year's final
between the Cougar standout and High Point's Tiffany Heineman.
Sparta's team title was keyed by a third straight championship effort by Jessica Dowd who previously had been partner
to a pair of doubles titles. This year, the Spartan senior remained undefeated after nine matches by defeating
Lenape Valley's Lauren Paich by a score of 6-2, 6-2 to capture the third singles crown.
Lauren Iganamort teamed with Katie Quinn to win the first doubles championship for Sparta bu outlasting the Wallkill
Valley tandem of Becky Drexl and Katelyn Mullen in a three-setter by scores of 7-6 (7-3), 2-6, 7-5.
At second singles, High Point's Kathryn Pomeroy claimed her first title when she rolled to a 6-3, 6-1 triumph over
defending champion Brittany Woesner of Pope John.
Kittatinny's second duo of Nancy Lee and Casey Roe rallied to win the No. 2 doubles title by defeating Sparta's
Lauren Butler and Kristie Sutton by scores of 3-6, 6-1, 6-2. |
