The Chesterton girls tennis team turned in its best performance of the season
on the scoreboard and picked up a 5-0 sweep of Crown Point on Senior Night
Thursday.
“Tonight was our first 5-0 sweep and on Senior Night that’s really nice,”
Chesterton coach Gretchen Shinn said. “Everyone played well.”
The Trojans (6-3, 2-2 DAC) had little trouble in doubles as Cristi Williams
and Bharathi Muthusamy beat Maria Ficker and Chelsea Viers 6-3, 6-0 at No. 1.
Amanda Gore and Christine Lambert followed with a 7-6, 6-3 win over Hannah
Tokoly and Kelly Gross at No. 2.
In singles, Elizabeth Shinn had an easy time at No. 1 with a 6-1, 6-3 victory
over Sara Tokoly. Erin DeVaney swept Amanda Halsted at No. 2 6-3, 6-4.
The match of the day came at No. 3 singles where sophomore Jannon Jeffries
dropped the first set 6-2 and battled back to win the final two sets 6-4, 6-3
over Alexandra Vandenberg.
“The highlight came from No. 3 singles and Jannon Jeffries,” Shinn said.
“Jeffries had a really nice come-from-behind three-set win.”
