The No. 2 doubles of Christa Stutzman and Brooklyn Good started strong in their match, taking the first set 6-3, but falling 2-6 and 3-6 to lose two sets to one.

Haley Sanders and Madison McDonald wrapped up the action for the Panthers. The duo lost at No. 3 doubles by a 6-4, 6-2 final score.

On the boys’ side, Powell’s Cody Akin was swept 6-2, 6-3 at No. 1 singles while No. 2 singles player Matt Brown was skunked 6-0, 6-0.

In doubles action, Akin and Blaze Flores had the day’s best result at No. 1 singles, losing 7-5, 6-3. The No. 2 doubles team of Myles Rumholz and Chase Wentz lost 6-0, 6-0 and the No. 3 doubles team of Noah Fulton and Tanner Barngrover lost 6-2, 6-0 to their Cody counterparts.
