Washington girls win Metro Spotlight Award
The Cedar Rapids Washington girls tennis team won the state title for the first time in 27 years Saturday with an impressive performance in Ames.
In recognition of their accomplishment, the entire squad has been named the winner of the Metro Spotlight Award this week by the Metro Sports Report.
It was truly a team achievement as all six players contributed at least one point in the semifinals or finals. Washington clipped Des Moines Roosevelt, 5-3, in the semifinals and topped Clinton, 5-2, in the finals.
