It was a good gauge for a few area teams for Regionals as they competed against several teams they could possibly see in the Regional competition later this season, as Sabetha and Marysville competed at the Immaculata girls tennis Invite as the Raiders hosted them as three other schools. 

The Sabetha Bluejays put together the top area performance just edging Marysville for second place as a team as both Sabetha and Marysville finished with 35 points but the Bluejays won the tiebreaker. The tiebreaker was total games won over total games played and whomever had the best percentage won the tiebreaker. The Bluejays had a 63.7%, while Marysville had a 59.9% giving Sabetha second place as a team. KC Christian took first in the competition. 

Leading the way for Sabetha on the day was the pair of second place finishes in the singles competition as Lexi Wenger and Courtney Plattner both posted 4-1 records in action. Wenger earned wins over Maranatha (8-7 (7-5)), Immaculata (8-0), Ottawa (8-0) and Marysville (8-2), while falling to KC Christian (3-8) in singles number one action. For Plattner in singles number two, she picked up wins over Maranatha (8-4), Immaculata (8-0), Ottawa (8-0) and Marysville (8-3), while also falling to KC Christian (4-8). 

In doubles competition it was a pair of third place finishes for the lady Bluejays as the team of Jena Winkler and Nicole Brey, and tandem of Savanna Metzger and Laura Edelman each posted records of 3-2 to take third place.
