<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LEXINGTON \u2014 After day one of the 2023 KHSAA Girls\u2019 Tennis State Tournament, Corbin Lady Redhound tennis still has one doubles team remaining as Katie Morton and Olivia McArthur posted a 2-0 mark on Tuesday to advantage to Wednesday\u2019s third round action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morton and McArthur won their first match, 6-2, 6-3 before pulling off a second round upset with a 1-6, 6-3, 12-10 victory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis is becoming a habit,\u201d Corbin coach Chris Jones said. \u201cCorbin Tennis is becoming a day two state tournament kind of program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAfter Lindsay Jones made it to the Round of 16 last year in singles, this year Katie Morton and Olivia McArthur won their first round match 6-2, 6-3 before pulling off an upset of a nine seed with an incredible super tiebreaker 1-6, 6-3, 12-10,\u201d he added. \u201cThese two girls put their state experience to play and didn\u2019t back down after a tough first set. We made a few adjustments in the second set and they really dug in and fought hard. I\u2019m so proud of their effort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13th Region singles champion Lindsay Jones almost advantaged to day two for the second straight year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She won her first match, 6-1, 6-1 before falling in the second round, 6-1, 6-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLindsay Jones had a great day winning her first round match 6-1, 6-1 before falling to a very strong nine seed in the second round from Scott County, 6-1, 6-0,\u201d Jones said. \u201cThis was just the cherry on top of her history-making third singles regional championship and I\u2019m proud of the effort she gave. Even though her second round opponent was very tough, she had a lot of bright moments and really pushed the girl in all the games.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kaiden Walden played in a match that lasted more than two hours before falling to North Laurel\u2019s Eva Clark in first round action while Abby Lunsford and Allison Lindy almost reach day two as well before falling in their second match of the day, 6-1, 6-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cKaiden Walden scrapped and fought hard, as usual, in her first round match that saw a rematch of the region semifinals between her and North Laurel\u2019s Eva Clark,\u201d Jones said. \u201cKaiden fell 7-6(6), 1-6, 3-10 after more than two and a half hours. As a coach, you can\u2019t ask for any more effort than she gave today. I\u2019m very proud of how she finished her senior season making it to the state tournament. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
