NORTH MANCHESTER – Turning the tables on the Three Rivers Conference defending champions, Manchester’s girls tennis team shout out visiting Wabash 5-0 Thursday. Karly Eichenauer needed three sets to beat Katie Ford 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 at No. 1 singles. Allison Smith won 6-1, 6-1 over Taylor Middleton at No. 2 singles, and Leiah Brandenburg was also a straight-set winner over Alexis Hartley at No. 3 singles, 6-0, 6-2. The No. 1 doubles team of Reilly Ruppert and Kelsey Eichenauer dropped just one game in their win, and Bethany Collet and Lydia Little won in straight sets at No. 2 doubles. Wabash won five of the seven junior varsity matches. Today’s match with Mississinewa has been cancelled, so next up for Manchester is a home match with Maconaquah on Tuesday.
