SJO girls tennis sweeps doubles to complete 5-4 comeback at Centennial

In a thrilling Senior Night, SJO girls tennis rallied from a 4-2 singles deficit to beat Centennial 5-4. Standout doubles performances clinched the win.

CHAMPAIGN - The St. Joseph-Ogden girls tennis team delivered one of its most memorable performances of the season last Thursday, edging Champaign Centennial 5-4 in a dramatic dual meet on the Chargers’ Senior Night.

SJO's Ainsley Rhoten attacks a short ball during her doubles match against Urbana, Rhoten and partner Shelby Warns, won their #1 doubles match at Centennial, upsetting Ria Modi and Taylor Diep. The Spartan pair also won their previous #1 doubles match against Watseka juniors Rose Koester and Elika Hardisty on September 30.
Fueled by clutch singles play from veterans Samantha Kelso and Lily Rice and a clean sweep through doubles, the Spartans (now 8-3 overall) earned a program-defining road victory heading into the final week of the regular season.

Kelso (8-3), who’s playing the best tennis of her prep career, set the tone early with a straight-sets win over Centennial’s top player, Ria Modi, 6-4, 6-4, at No. 1 singles. The senior extended her win streak to four, following victories over St. Teresa, Watseka and Urbana.

Rice (9-1) responded with poise and determination at No. 2 singles, bouncing back from a tough September 29 loss to Urbana’s Ananyah Tangmunarunkit. The senior battled through three sets to outlast Taylor Diep 6-2, 3-6, 10-6, earning her second consecutive win.

Centennial briefly took control of the match after claiming the remaining singles courts, with strong showings from Krishna Patel, Asma Cheema, Romi Sagiv and Veronica Hooper against Spartan competitors Audrie Helfrich, Avarie Dietiker, Maddie Wells and Ava Midkiff. The Chargers’ surge gave them a 4-2 lead heading into doubles play.

With their backs to the wall, the Spartans’ doubles lineup came through in dominant fashion.

At No. 1 doubles, Ainsley Rhoten and Shelby Warns took down Modi and Diep in a tense 8-7 (2) tiebreaker, while the No. 2 pairing of Madison Farber and Kenley Ray rolled to an 8-2 win over Patel and Ellie Marinichev. The clinching point came from the No. 3 team of senior Karleigh Spain and junior Sophie Schmitz, who defeated Believe Mondika and Shaniece Clayborn 8-6. The duo improved their combined varsity records to 8-3.

St. Joseph-Ogden continues a strong late-season surge with two regular-season matches remaining, hosting Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley on Thursday at Atkins Tennis Center and closing at Maroa-Forsyth next Monday before postseason play begins.

Chargers' Ria Modi keeps the ball in play during Centennial's home match against Mahomet-Seymour. Modi, who lost that match, pulled off a commanding win over Urbana's Elianna Lee to reset her win streak.

URBANA - Coming off a loss to local emerging girls tennis powerhouse Mahomet-Seymour, Centennial put another mark in the win column Thursday with a 6-3 road victory over Big Twelve Conference opponent Urbana.

The Chargers (2-4) leaned on their top players to lead the way. No. 1 singles standout Ria Modi and No. 2 Taylor Diep, both looking to rebound from Labor Day setbacks, did just that by sweeping their singles matches and later teaming up with partners to take doubles wins as well. Modi paired with Romi Sagiv to win at No. 2 doubles, while Diep joined forces with Krisha Patel to claim No. 1 doubles.

Patel also delivered a dramatic win in singles at the No. 3 spot, outlasting Urbana’s Ananyah Tangmunarunkit in a tense third-set tiebreaker, 14-12. Sagiv added a straight-set victory at No. 4 singles to give Centennial a strong showing across the middle of the lineup.

Centennial will return home Thursday to host crosstown rival Champaign Central at Lindsay Courts, looking to secure bragging rights among Champaign-Urbana’s three large school programs.

    Urbana's Alisa Aksimentyeva lunges forward to hit an approach shot while playing with partner Anyssa Tangmunarunkit during last Tuesday's match against St. Joseph-Ogden. The sophomore picked up another varsity win with Tangmunarunkit on Thursday against Centennial.

    URBANA – On an unseasonably cool Thursday at Blair Tennis Courts, Urbana’s girls tennis team notched three match victories but came up short against Champaign Centennial, falling 6-3 in a home dual.

    The "A-Team", Freshman Anyssa Tangmunarunkit and sophomore Alisa Aksimentyeva, extended their momentum in doubles, securing their second straight win together. After surviving a tight first-set tiebreaker, the pair rolled to a commanding 6-0 finish in the second to close out Centennial’s No. 3 tandem.

    Earlier at singles, Urbana junior Gwen McLean continued her steady play at No. 5, earning her second consecutive victory with a 6-2, 6-2 decision over Asma Cheema. Senior Simone Marshall added another point for the Tigers, battling her way to a straight-set victory at No. 6 singles with a 7-5, 6-4 result.

    Despite the loss, Urbana (1-2) showed growth coming off its season-opening win against St. Joseph-Ogden. The Tigers will stay at home Tuesday to host St. Thomas More before heading on the road Thursday for a matchup with Watseka.

    Chargers' Ria Modi lunges after the ball during her match against Mahomet-Seymour's Adella Bird. Modi fell in straight sets 6-1, 6-1.

    CHAMPAIGN – The Centennial girls tennis team could not keep pace with Mahomet-Seymour on Labor Day, dropping a 9-0 decision in a nonconference dual at Lindsey Courts.

    The Chargers (1-5) entered the contest fresh off a 7-2 Big 12 Conference win over Bloomington, but the Bulldogs (3-1) took control from the outset. The match began shortly after the conclusion of the Champaign Park District’s annual Labor Day Tournament, with Mahomet-Seymour winning all six singles and three doubles contests.

    The closest match of the day came at No. 2 doubles, where Centennial’s Modi and Zumwalt pushed Flores and Gowler to a first-set tiebreak before the Bulldogs secured the win in straight sets.

    Centennial looks to bounce back when it travels to Urbana for a conference matchup at Blair Park. Mahomet-Seymour, meanwhile, improved to 3-1 overall in dual meet competition.
