Marion, Mississinewa and Madison-Grant competed in the opening round of sectionals on Wednesday evening.
The Olemiss Tennis Team defeated Marion in the first round of sectionals. The Indians rebounded from a slow start to settle in and compete against the Giants. Marion captured the first game on all five courts and maintained control early in the match. Mississinewa overtook their opponents late in the first sets and maintained the level of play. Olemiss is now 14-2 on the season and will play Madison Grant in round two of the sectionals Thursday at Marion High School.
