In a very ambitious schedule, Superior tennis team played against some of the top teams and players in the state, including Simms, Loyola, Valley Christian, and Mission.
First up was Missoula Loyola which had too much veteran depth for the youthful Bobcat as the Rams won all the lower seeded matches for a 4-2 victory. The Bobcats picked up two wins from their top two seeds with Josie Crabb winning 6-3,6-4.
In the match of the year for the Cats, number one doubles of Perri Jasper and Cami Quick fell behind Loyola 0-3 in the first set before rallying behind net game, improved serves to win the set 7-5. They went down and couldn't back the second set losing 2-6. Then going down 2-6 in the third set tiebreaker, the magic seemed to reappear as they won the next eight points for a scintillating 7-5, 2-6, (10-6) hard fought upset victory.
