By rongi Yost

The girls tennis team
played in the OSAA Girls
Tennis 4A/3A/2A/1A Special
District 3 Tournament, which
was held Thursday through
Saturday, May 14-16, at
Black Butte Ranch, and
walked away with a fifth-
place finish.
Unfortunately, Coach
Susan Fullhart was unable to
attend. Fullhart’s son Sam,
was involved in a bike acci-
dent, suffered serious facial
trauma, and was airlifted
to Portland. Ben Fullhart
stepped in to coach for his
mom, and boys Coach Bim
Gander provided details and
comments about Sisters’
matches.
Sisters No. 1 combo,
Brenna Weems and Jesse
Farr-Baenziger (No. 4 seed)
earned a fourth-place finish
and will advance to the state
championships.
We e m s a n d F a r r -
Baenziger blanked Cheunjit
and Libatore of St. Marys
6-0, 6-0 in the first round,
and then defeated LaGesse
and Lyon of North Bend 6-1,
6-3, in the second round.
In the quarter-finals,
Weems and Farr-Baenziger
matched up against
Mehlbrech and Curran from
Junction City, a team they’d
split matches with earlier in
the season.
Brenna and Jesse came
out on top with scores of
7-6 (7-5), 6-3. It was a

Brenna Weems and Jessee Farr-Baenziger played well enough to qualify
for a slot at the state tournament.
make-or-break match, and
the win secured the duo a
berth to the state tourney. In
the tiebreaker, Brenna and
Jesse were tied at 5-5, and
Jesse hit a net-court win-
ner and got a point. The
duo earned the next point to
secure the win.
Coach Gander said, “You
could see they (JC) were vis-
ibly defeated with the loss of
that first set.”
We e m s a n d F a r r -
Baenziger faced Hahn and
Matheson, the No. 1 seed
from Henley, in the semi-
finals, and lost the match 6-0,
6-0.
“They (Henley) were
clearly — by leaps and
bounds — the best team
at the tournament,” said
Gander. “They only lost one
game the entire tournament.”
Brenna and Jesse lost
their final match for a fourth-
place tournament finish. The
combo lost 4-6, 6-3, 3-6,
to Boesl and Guirado from
Marshfield.
“It was a long back-and-
forth match,” stated Gander.
“There was a lot of aggres-
sive play from the Marshfield
team, but our girls battled
well. In the second set,
Jesse’s lobs were able to
overcome Boesls’ strong
overhead shots.”
Play from the other
Outlaws were critical, and
together the team earned a
fifth-place finish overall.
Marshfield finished first,
Junction City was runner-up,
and North Bend took third.
We e m s a n d F a r r -
Baenziger will play in the
state tournament at OSU on
Thursday and Friday, May
21- 22.
