Jefferson High tennis players Renee Yu, Leah Vossler, Kylie Marks and Laurynn Armstrong traveled to Great Falls for the State B-C Tennis Tournament last week.

After leading her third match 6-3, she was defeated by Grace Daniel of Missoula Loyola 6-3, 0-6, 4-6. Yu came back strong to beat Hailey Mills of Fairfield 6-1, 6-1 before she was edged out by Jess Barnett of Broadwater 6-7 (5), 4-6.
Leah Vossler lost to Christine Funk of Choteau 3-6, 1-6, but then beat Elsa Podesta of Darby 6-0, 7-6 (3). She was eliminated from play by a loss to Kimber Schlapman of Darby 4-6, 6-1, 3-6.
