Junior netters get two Monahans titles
PECOS, May 4, 2000 -- Two Pecos Eagles junior high tennis players came
away with a pair of first place trophies this past weekend, while a third

Eighth grader Natalie Ornelas captured first place in the girls singles
division, while Chris Hernandez won the singles titles in the seventh grade
boys division this past weekend Whitney Lamb, one of the Eagles' other
singles player in the eighth grade girls division, took consolation.
Ornelas defeated Nanette Ramirez of Odessa San Jacinto and Monahans'
Savanna West and Chris Escamilla all by 6-0 scores, and then downed the
Loboes' Christy Gatzki in the finals, 9-8 (7-1). Lamb lost her opening
match to Gatzki, 6-2, then beat Seminole's Roxanna Olivas and Fort Stockton's
Vanessa Rocha in the consolation bracket by the same 6-2 score.
The Eagles' third player in the singles division, Chantel Orona, defeated
San Jacinto's Erin Cash, 6-3, but then lost to Gatzki by a 6-0 score.
Hernandez won four matches on the way to the eighth grade boys' singles

Dyke earlier defeated Pecos' Sterling Ingram, though no score was available.
Ingram had earlier defeated Brandon Harris of Seminole, 6-1, and his teammate,
Jacob Johnson, by a 6-3 score.
In other results, Sara Pena and Cassie Reyes were eliminated in the
second round of eighth grade girls' doubles, losing 6-1 to Monahans' Galindo

In eighth grade boys' singles, Michael Orona defeated Crane's Andrew
Hinostroza, 6-1 and Crane's Patrick Garcia, 6-1, before losing to David
