After just falling short of making the playoffs as a team two members of the Armstrong River Hawks tennis team made it to the WPIAL tournament for doubles.
Ashleigh Bowser and Lauren Virostek have played well and consistently all regular season in singles before teaming up for the WPIAL Doubles tournament.
In the qualifying round they took fourth place in their section, qualifying them for the two day WPIAL tournament which took place on Thursday.
On Thursday the girls traveled to the Monroeville Raquet Club for the tournament in which they went up against Northern Allegheny’s #1 team.
Unfortunately for the River Hawks this is where their journey ended as Northern Alleghenys’ Ashley Huang and Tina Li defeated Bowser and Virostek 10-0 and then went on to take 2nd place in the event.
Although Armstrong finished short of taking first place the experience gained should be put to good use as the entire team will be returning next year for another run.
