Lauren Ferry took first in the No. 1 singles bracket by going 3-0.

Dana Hildebrandt took first in the No. 2 singles bracket, also going 3-0.

Brittany Boelter and Nessa Saengyothinh came in with a 2-1 record in No. 1 doubles, and Lauren Mehr and Meagan Diede rebounded in their last match with a victory to come in at 1-2 in No. 2 doubles.

Congratulations, South Elgin Storm, on your school's first varsity tournament win!
