This wasn’t the April 20 match against Munster.
No, Delta learned from that. The Eagles may have played intimidated then, but they didn’t the rest of the year. Not against the many ranked teams they faced during the regular season. Not against those they battled during sectionals, regionals and semi-state. And not during Friday’s state quarterfinals matchup with No. 1 Indianapolis Cathedral.
Delta, ranked eighth, lost against the Fighting Irish. Its 5-0 defeat mirrors that of its loss against Munster about a month and a half ago, the Eagle’s only prior loss in 2019. The program’s quest for a girls tennis state title is over.
