Morton attained a key Mid-Illini Conference girls tennis victory Aug. 24.

The visiting Potters dominated Dunlap, 7-2, to begin league play.

Morton won all three doubles contests in an outstanding effort.

“That was some of the best doubles I’ve seen a Morton girls team as a whole play ever,” said MHS head coach Pete Martin.

In the No. 1 slot, Ashley Gannon and Jessica Martin were 1-6, 6-0, 6-4 winners.

Siera Hasler and Paige Maurer handed their second-position counterparts a 6-1, 6-0 defeat.

In singles, Hasler (6-4, 6-1), Maurer (7-5, 4-6, 6-1), Bohnker (6-4, 6-0) and Hartman (6-3, 6-2) prevailed.
