Jamie Thorpe, who won two state doubles titles for Kennedy Catholic with brother Mitch, put his perfect high school record on the line in the Class 3A boys tennis championships held at the Tri-City Court Club and Kamiakin High School May 24-25.

After advancing through the rounds in singles play, Thorpe faced Connor Garnett of Interlake who headed into the championship match with an unbeaten 14-0 record in this season's singles action. Garnett proved to be stronger on this day and took home the gold with a 6-1, 6-1.

In his semifinal match, Thorpe captured a long, drawn out 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, battle against Lust Le of Interlake.

The Lancer ace's tournament began with a 6-4, 6-2, win against Henry Smith of Mercer Island before he methodically mowed down Daniel Park of Lakeside, 6-3, 6-1, in a quartefinal leading up to the upcoming two matches which left Thorpe's bid for a singles title one win short of fruition..
