MCPHERSON — Great Bend's Brendyn Schroeder won two of three singles matches to earn a spot in the fifth-place match against Newton's Ben Friesen-Guhr in Tuesday's weather-delayed McPherson Tennis Tournament. The majority of matches were completed before lightning stopped the tournament.

Schroeder defeated McPherson's Josh Everhart 8-1 and McPherson's Bryson Archer 8-2, but lost to Derby's Evan Franke 8-3 in the singles quarterfinals. Great Bend's Jordan Manning won one match before an injury forced him to default his final two matches.

Great Bend's Isaiah Smith/Malachi Wasson won one match and lost 8-7 (7-4) in a tight match against Derby's Collin Bale/Ayden Bohaty for 11th place. Panthers Robby Gutierrez/Marci Castanon lost 8-1 for 15th place to Hays High's Jack Scoby/Bill Linenberger.
