Samantha Marek and Kaitlyn York, who are tennis doubles standouts at Cheatham County Central, qualified for the TSSAA state championships and finished in the top eight.

Marek and York lost to the Johnson County duo of Hailey Rider and Rhiannon Icenhour in two sets 6-3, 6-3.

Marek and York were the only athletes from the Cheatham County Central tennis team who qualified for state, and with the semifinal loss, were eliminated from the tournament.

Marek is a senior, so her high school career is over, but York is a sophomore and has the chance to return to the state tournament in two more seasons.
