Kyanna Champ 6-0, 6-0. #3 seed Emily Burnette, #4 seed 
Mary Alice Clements, and #6 seed Emma Barber also had 
little trouble with their opponents. Burnette defeated 
Tamara Glover 6-0, 6-1, Clements took Lexus Fisher 6-1, 
6-1, and Barber beat Navin Chavis 6-0, 6-1. 

The match of the day was between the Lady Jackets’ Mary 
Carlson and the Lady Raiders’ Brianna Escobar. Carlson 
dropped the first set 1-6, but came screaming back to win 
the second set 6-2. Carlson then fought back from a 3-8 
deficit in the tie breaker to win 11-9, thus taking the tie 
breaker and the match. 

The Lady Jackets had little trouble in the doubles sets. 
The combination of Sheley and Nixon dropped the Lady 
Raiders duo of Emonee and Tamara Glover, 8-1. The #2 
pair of Burnette and Clements defeated Shyann Simpson 
and Kaliyah Tunstall 8-1. To complete the sweep, the team
