The Pierre Governor Tennis team beat both Lennox and St. Thomas More by the score of 6-3 on Thursday but fell 5-4 to Rapid City Christian in its first dual of the day as the Govs went 2-1 overall before Friday’s tournament.
Luke Leingang went 6-0 on the day winning in all three singles and doubles matches while his doubles two partner, Spencer Kelly went 5-0 on the day winning both of his singles matches. Pierre lost two of its five matches to Rapid City Christian 10-8 nearly swinging the dual in their favor. Matt Hanson and Blake Judson, Doubles 1 partners both went 4-2 overall on the day with a 2-1 record in both singles and doubles. The three losses in the St. Thomas More matches were actually to Watertown opponents as Pierre needed a couple of more ESD matches in for the season and St. Thomas More did not have Singles 5 and 6 and Doubles 1 in Pierre on Thursday.
