Cate and Thacher played toe-to-toe on the hardcourts Wednesday, with the Rams snatching victory in a 9-9 tie that went to Cate due to overall games won, 78-73.
Arielle Kubetschek was a huge difference maker in the final tally, having won her three sets with a lop-sided game count (18-2).
Two of Cate’s doubles teams, Louisa Dick-Valdez-Lela Puckett and Annaliese Schroeder-Belle Kammer, won two sets each. Schroeder and Kammer took their final set in a tiebreaker, a crucial set point that allowed the match to go to the tiebreaker.
