Two Shorecrest singles players, Shorewood doubles team reach State girls' tennis tournament

Two singles players from Shorecrest and a Shorewood doubles team have qualified for the State 3A tennis tournament next week in Kennewick by placing in the top three in their divisions at the Northwest District 3A girls’ tournament Tuesday and Wednesday in Stanwood.

Jenny Sui of Shorecrest goes to the State tournament as the second-place finisher in the District tournament after losing in the Wednesday singles final to Nadean Al-Ali of Glacier Peak.

Sui will be joined at the State tournament by teammate Meera Limaye, who defeated a player from Everett in the match for third place in the District tournament.

Sui had reached the final after defeating teammate Limaye by injury default in the Tuesday semifinals.

 Limaye came back Wednesday to defeat a player from Stanwood and the player from Everett.

The Shorewood doubles team of Daniella Brengelmann and Francesca O'Malley goes to State as the No, 2 Northwest District team after losing in the final to a team from Mountlake Terrace.
