Jenne posted a 6-1, 6-1 win over Franklin Academy’s Abby Armistead in morning play at Cary Tennis Park.
Due to rain, Friday’s matches are being held on the two covered courts at Cary Tennis Park. With just two courts available for the four classes of singles and doubles championships, officials decided to move semifinal play to Saturday.
