Troy tennis takes to the road for challenging competition

Troy High School’s tennis team was in Bigfork Friday, and followed on with an all day tournament in Hamilton at the Bitterroot Invitational.

Assistant Coach Nancy Prieve said Bitterroot made for a long day, but that the Troy athletes had fun playing the Class A teams they don’t normally see during the season.

Though none of the Troy team advanced beyond their second match, Prieve noted that girls No. 2 double team of seniors Allie Coldwell and Kaitlyn Downey continue to show the improvement they have made since the start of the season.
