NCHSAA 3-A WOMEN'S TENNIS
ASHEVILLE'S LASURE WINS SECOND 3-A SINGLES CROWN
GREENSBORO-- MacKenzie LaSure of Asheville won her
second consecutive state singles title on Saturday in the North Carolina High
School Athletic Association state 3-A women's tennis tournament championship at
the Piedmont Indoor Tennis Center.
LaSure
defeated teammate Alex Theodossiou by 6-3, 6-0 to take the title. The two-time
champ was in the finals for the third straight year, as she was the 2009
singles runner-up and the champion last year.
Both Asheville players advanced to the championship match with straight set victories in the semifinals earlier on Saturday.
In doubles, the Raleigh Cardinal Gibbons duo of Lauren Brooker and Caroline Smith won the crown with a 6-1, 6-2 triumph over Heidi Swope and Casey Rowe of Weddington. The Gibbons team, which won both of its matches in straight sets on Friday and dropped only two games in the process, was the state runner-up in 2010.
Friday's matches were played at the Burlington Tennis Center, but heavy rains overnight moved the tournament semifinals and finals indoors to the Piedmont Indoor Tennis Center.
