Mt. Vernon sophomore falls in tennis tourney
Mt. Vernon’s No. 1 singles player Lydia Ruegsegger competed in the individual tennis tournament on Thursday, falling to Fishers, 1-6, 1-6.
Ruegsegger finished her sophomore year with a 15-5 record.
"Lydia built on a good freshman year to a really good sophomore year," Mt. Vernon coach Gabe Muterspaugh said. "We know that Lydia will work to get faster, stronger and have more weapons. We want her to be a vocal leader and help lead us to (sectional) No. 7 in a row and emerge as one of the top players in the state."
