Viking girl netters top A-P

By Becky Walz,

The wild winds couldn’t stop the Decorah girls tennis team from defeating Aplington-Parkersburg on Tuesday on the road, 7-2.
The Vikings adjusted their varsity lineup to allow more girls to get some valuable match experience, but, in singles, Evon Leitz, Olivia Huinker and Camryn Holland still filled their No. 1-3 singles positions.
At No. 1 singles, E. Leitz fell 1-8 to Adria Neymeyer, the returning sixth-place state singles finisher. Olivia Huinker started off on serve with Peyton Klooster at No. 2 singles before pulling ahead to grab an 8-5 win, and at No. 3 singles, fighting her way back from a 0-3 start, and later a 2-5 deficit, Camryn Holland seized an 8-5 victory in a well-executed match that tested both her, and opponent Megan Bruns’, endurance and consistency.
At No. 4 singles, Klaara Short, claimed her first varsity singles win of the year finishing 8-5 over Holly Haugstad.  Myla Leitz, No. 5 singles, and McKinley Massman, No. 6 singles, both defeated their opponents 8-6 and recorded their second career varsity singles wins. M. Leitz defeated Jayden Krausman, while Massman was victorious over Julia Mastek.
In doubles, the Vikings went 2-1. The No. 1 combo of Huinker and Kaitlyn Bjork fell 2-8 to Neymeyer and Klooster. Jaidyn Duvel and Leah Holland, No. 2 doubles, topped Bruns and Haugstad 8-1 with No. 3 doubles team of Addie Maki and Dylin Thomson, secured an 8-1 as well.
