Guthrie head tennis coach Mary Hudson sent both of her doubles teams to the state tennis tournament at the Oklahoma City Tennis Center.
Barrett Porter and Josh Wehrenberg, both seniors, composed of the No. 1 team and placed sixth overall by winning three of their five state matches. The duo combined for wins over McAlester (6-3,6-3), Durant (6-0,6-1), and Harrah (6-4,6-2).
Their first loss came to the eventual state champions from Carl Albert (1-6,3-6)and in their final match to Tulsa Edison (6-1,6-2).
Wehrenberg finishes his career by playing in the state tournament in all four years and was rewarded this week when he signed with Southwestern Christian University to play college tennis.
Meanwhile, the Jays No. 2 team of Andy Hartley and Seth Vicchio did not fare as well by dropping both their matches to Durant (3-6,4-6) and Harrah (0-6,3-6).
