When it came down to Class A, B or C, little old Class C Superior proved to be perhaps the best tennis team of all.

The Superior Lady Cats, led by singles champion Josie Crabb and runnerup teammate Perri Jasper, collectively won a total of 16 matches while losing only five in the two-day ABC tennis tournament in Libby and Troy Friday and Saturday.

At the net this week, the Cats were set to revisit Troy for a dual match with the Trojans Monday (results were not available) and will next play after that against Valley Christian in Missoula May 13.

Coach Rick Berreth was very happy with how his team played in the ABC tourney last week, noting that it was a bracketed event with the Nos. 1 and 2 singles players in one bracket, and the Nos. 2 and 3 in another, with the same system used for doubles.

Going up against players from Libby, Columbia Falls, Bigfork, Troy and Cut Bank, proud Class C competitors Crabb and Jasper proved to be the best singles players there, and won their ways into the championship match in proof.

Once there in the championship match, Crabb defeated Jasper 4-6, 6-0, 6-1 in that battle of the Bobcats’ best to give Superior the top two places in the tournament. In the process, Josie proved she is nearly all the way back at least after sitting out the first two months of her junior season with a stress fracture issue.

“The crowning moment in the tournament for the Class C Cats was in the singles championship,” Berreth said, “which was colored blue and red.”

Although Crabb and Jasper carried the school colors proudly and were the team leaders, Berreth said all his players performed well in Troy and Libby, noting that freshman Kamryn Church made it to the Nos. 3 and 4 consolation singles final, and that the freshman doubles team of Camdyn Atkins and Charlotte Allard also won a match in that category in doubles.

The other freshman doubles team of Alyza Wickham and Mady Neu placed fourth in their assigned division of play.
