Concordia Girls Tennis Team Battles Hard in Tough Salina Central Tournament

The Concordia High School Girls Tennis team competed in the 16-team Salina Central Invitational Tournament in Salina on Saturday, September 9th.

"There was a 32 team draw for singles and doubles- 5 games each.  This gave us an opportunity to play several games on different levels of experience," Coach John Turner told KNCK Sports.  "I felt that Concordia improved their game having to play some tough teams.  All the girls walked away with a win and we had several tie-breaker matches playing the distance.
