6-1-sophie-maddux

Sophie Maddux knew her first-round matchup at the KHSAA State Tennis Tournament would be the toughest she faced this year.  Unfortunately, the Hopkinsville junior was right.

Maddux lost in straight sets 6-0, 6-0 to North Oldham freshman Lilah Shallcross, the No. 5 seed in the singles’ tournament.  Shallcross was dominant with her first serve and kept Maddux on the move for most of the match.

Shallcoss easily moved on into the quarterfinals to be played Wednesday at the Boone Tennis Center on the campus of the University of Kentucky.

Maddux, who played in the state tournament in doubles two years ago as a freshman, was the Region 2 runner-up and named to the All-Region Team.
