“I just tried to give it my all,” Cohen said. “Especially for her [Brass], she’s just been a great role model to look up to.”
Though this year’s team is young, Ach said he was happy with how they handled the pressure Wednesday. He was also impressed with his team’s sweep of the three doubles matches, one of which came from a set down to win in three sets. Blake’s doubles, though solid this season, had dropped some points along the way, Ach said.
“But coming into this tournament, they kept raising their level,” he said.
Litchfield made the final after a 4-3 semifinal upset of No. 2 seed Crookston. The Dragons’ lone match victory in the final came at No. 1 singles as sophomore Isla Dille defeated Blake sophomore Fatemeh Vang 6-2, 6-2.
“[Dille] was very intelligent with her shots,” Litchfield coach Matt Draeger said. “I thought she hustled after balls and made [Vang] hit extra shots.”
When the medals and trophy were presented, Ach called on Brass again to read player names as medals were placed around their necks.
