Zaleski Sports

STEVENS POINT – The Stevens Point Pacelli girls tennis team continued its undefeated streak through the Great Northern Conference, winning a pair of matches on Monday and Tuesday at the Goerke Park Courts.

Pacelli whipped Phillips 7-0 on Monday and edged Wausau Newman Catholic 4-3 on Tuesday to run its record to a perfect 6-0 in the conference duals this fall.

The Cardinals swept all seven matches against Phillips, losing just six games in the three doubles matches, and seven in the four singles matches.

Lauren Loesl at No. 2 singles, and the No. 2 doubles team of Amelia Jacoby and Anabelle Arnold both lost the first sets in their matches against Newman Catholic before rallying to win the final two and grab the victory for Pacelli.

The Cardinals also won the other two doubles matches against Newman, as Ella Schroeder and Marissa Stolt at No. 1, and Jayden Hytry and Lucy Gwidt at No. 3 won in straight sets.

Pacelli hosts Rhinelander at 4:30 p.m. Thursday for the GNC regular-season title. Both teams are 6-0 heading into the final dual match of the season. The Great Northern Conference Tournament will be Sept. 25 at Antigo.
