Jay County Roundup

The slump continued Monday for the Jay County girls tennis team.

Playing without three varsity starters the Patriots lost 4-1 to the host Adams Central Jets. It was the eighth straight defeat for them after opening the season with a win over Blackford.

Angie Stults picked up the lone victory for Jay County, defeating Betsy Goulet 6-4, 6-3 at No. 3 singles.

The Jets’ Lindsey Cloninger shut out Whitney Schemenaur 6-0, 6-0 at No. 1 singles. Megan Smith topped the Patriots’ Stephanie Homan 6-4, 7-5 in the other singles contest.

Jay County (1-8) also dropped both doubles matches as it was missing the normal No. 1 doubles pair of Julie Sours and Erin St. Myers, and No. 2 doubles player Erin Schmiesing.

Schmiesing’s partner Chelsea Reff stepped up to No. 1 doubles along with Brianne Morrical and took a 6-2, 6-3 loss to Ashley Fiechter and Amanda Isch. At No. 2 doubles Jenae Horn and Jessica DeRome fell to Annie Kine and Jessica Andrews 6-3, 6-3.

The Patriots will try to stop the losing streak Wednesday when they host the Muncie Central Bearcats at 4:30 p.m.

The Patriots also lost by a 4-1 score to Adams Central in junior varsity action, with Annika Kuitzsch scoring the lone win. She topped Laura Schaadt 8-5 at No. 2 singles.

In the other singles matches Amanda Hicks lost to Natalie Mitchel 9-7, and Shonda Sutton fell to Lilah Fisher 8-3.

In doubles action Brittany Lewis and Chatchanok Sririthara dropped an 8-5 decision to Suzi Cruz and Jessica Bertsch. Lewis and Dani Parks lost at No. 1 doubles to Mary Anne Mishler and Kari Ellenbeger after Parks was forced to retire with an ankle injury.
