Dodger girls defeat Mason City
MASON CITY — The Fort Dodge girls tennis team picked up an 8-3 victory over Mason City here Tuesday night.
Manuela Rodriguez, Amy Muftillaeva, Grace Behrens, Lacey Larson and Madge Hensley were all winners in singles. In doubles, Rodriguez/Behrens, Claire Thompson and Kam Gochee, and Grace Rivera and Mia Carpenter were doubles winners.
“It was a good night for the girls,” FDSH head coach Julie Astor said. “They won some close matches and lost a couple tough ones. I thought Manuela did a nice job in the No. 1 spot against a girl that was tough to put away.”
