STM got big wins from its No. 1 and No. 2 players against Madison as Aisling Gould and Cheyenne Raforth downed Molly Johnson and Laura Niedert, respectively.

“They had never beaten Madison’s No. 1 and No. 2 and today both of them did it individually and in doubles,” More head coach Mary Helen Flanery said. “We beat Aberdeen Roncalli yesterday and we hadn’t done that before so the girls came in with a lot of confidence.”

Gould’s win was a tight one as she held off Johnson 11-9, while Raforth was a 10-5 winner.

The duo downed the Johnson and Niedert in doubles by an 11-9 tally as well.

Picking up two singles wins for the Cavaliers on the day were Alexis Haakedahl, Marin Plumb, Denali Raforth and Catherine Gibbens.

“We are proud of the girls because they played hard and stayed focused,” Flanery said.

If you don't see your comment, perhaps...

you called someone an idiot, a racist, a dope, a moron, etc. Please, no name-calling or profanity (or veiled profanity -- #$%^&*).
you rambled, failed to stay on topic or exhibited troll-like behavior intended to hijack the discussion at hand.
YOU SHOUTED YOUR COMMENT IN ALL CAPS. This is hard to read and annoys readers.
you named a business or identified a business in a way good or bad. Contact the business directly with your customer service concerns or your praise – they’ll likely appreciate your feedback.
you believe the newspaper's coverage is unfair. It would be better to write Jerry Steinley at jerry.steinley@rapidcityjournal.com or call him at 394-8427. This is a forum for community discussion, not for media criticism. We'd rather address your concerns directly.
you included an e-mail address or phone number, pretended to be someone you aren't or offered a comment that makes no sense.
you accused someone of a crime or assigned guilt or punishment to someone suspected of a crime.
your comment is in really poor taste.
