Last week’s four-team IHSAA girls tennis sectional at Connersville was pushed back a day and suspended on the second day due to rain. 

Rushville defeated Union County 5-0 and Franklin County defeated Connersville 3-2 in the opening round. 

In the championship match, Franklin County defeated Rushville to advance to the regional round.

The Lady Patriots wrapped up a season of improvement, albeit without a win. At sectional, points began showing up all over the board and some matches went deep into sets.

So at this point with UC losing one to graduation next month, UC tennis is looking to the future and bigger and better things.
