BLANCHESTER – The Blanchester tennis team was ousted from the state team tennis tournament Wednesday by Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy 4-1 on the BHS courts.

The Wildcats are 8-6 on the year.

“All in all, it was a fabulous match,” BHS coach Scott Shepard said. “We got better against a fantastic team.”

Jacob Miller was the lone BHS winner, defeated Adam Jutt 6-0, 6-2.

“Jacob dominated a good player,” said Shepard.

The BHS coach said Brian Miller and the first doubles pairing of Cody McCollister and Ian Heeg “put themselves in a position to win and that’s all you can ask.”
