PLAYERS OF THE WEEK: Caroline Treis and Brooke Skemp, Brookfield Central. The two paired up to go 4-0 Saturday in leading the Lancers to first place in their own six-team invitational. They also each won two singles matches earlier in the week. Last year, Skemp advanced to the third round of state doubles with a different partner.

TEAM OF THE WEEK: Milwaukee Riverside. The Tigers easily won the City Conference round-robin doubles tournament Saturday as they finished 49 points ahead of Milwaukee Madison. Vanali Phanthavong and Monique Ingram took first at No. 1 doubles, and Oceana Henderson and Miracle Hoskin-Northcutt did the same at No. 2. At No. 3, Sarafina Teat and Jamie Johnson finished first, as did Brittney Burroughs and Ashley Brown at No. 6.

HARTFORD WINS ITS HALF: The Hartford-Oconomowoc Invitational was held Saturday, and the Orioles were hardly tested in going 3-0 at their own school.

Hartford beat Madison East and Muskego by scores of 7-0, and also added a 6-1 victory over Elkhorn. The Orioles' No. 1 doubles team of juniors Hannah Kranz and Alaina Schaefer was undefeated, including 6-0, 6-0 victories against the Elks and Madison East.

Franklin was 3-0 at Oconomowoc after beating Janesville Craig, 7-0, Neenah, 4-3, and Oconomowoc, 5-2.
