Press Staff Report

OSAGE — Two days after getting outside for the first time all season in a meet against Decorah, the Charles City girls tennis team picked up its first win of the season when it edged hosting Osage, 5 matches to 4.

Mackenzie Wilson and Taylor Walters accounted for three of Charles City’s wins. Wilson defeated Anna Miller, 10-3, in No. 3 singles, and Walters bested Savannah Williams, 10-7, in No. 4 singles before the Comets teamed up to defeat Miller and Gillian Johanns, 8-4, in No. 2 doubles.

“They were our MVPs for us today,” Charles City coach Brian Parrott said about Wilson and Walters, “though I have to mention Amy Boggess, who pulled out a close win in No. 2 singles, and freshman Kayla Kellogg, who won her No. 5 singles match.”

Boggess defeated Erica Nusstrom, 10-8, and Kellogg defeated Victoria Schwarting, 10-4.

Recording wins for Osage were Hailey Gentz, who defeated Jodie Sindlinger, 10-6, in No. 1 singles; Johanns, who defeated Jacie Wink, 10-4, in No. 6 singles; Gentz and Nusstrom, who defeated Boggess and Sindlinger in No. 1 doubles; and Williams and Schwarting, who defeated Kellogg and Wink in No. 3 doubles.

“Our jayvee girls also played well for us while winning six matches,” Parrott said.
