Yesterday when Floyd Central defeated Jeffersonville 5 – 0 it also meant that Courtney Murphy and Hanna Gish were the individual sectional doubles champs. The number 1 doubles team defeated Jeffersonville in the team sectional, but since the team lost, they moved into the individual tournament. No other doubles team was undefeated except those playing in the Floyd Central Regional. When on Tuesday Floyd Central beat Silver Creek that eliminated that doubles team and when Jeff's number 1 doubles team beat New Albany that eliminated another team. With Floyd Central winning the regional, their doubles team remains in the team tournament and is undefeated.
Next up will be playing on June 5th at Carmel High School near Indianapolis in what is known as an individual doubles regional. There is the potential for two matches that day with the first beginning at 10 AM. If they win the second match will be at Park Tutor High School in Indianapolis at 2 PM. Potential opponents will come from winners at Vincennes Lincoln, Seymour, and Jasper regionals. The winner of these two regional matches will then advance to the state individual doubles finals to be held June 11th and 12th.
This will be Hanna's first appearance in the individual doubles regional, Courtney played at this level last year with Emily DiNoto. Hanna and Courtney are currently 13 and 8.
