Carrying the number two seed in the tournament, the Pella High tennis doubles’ team of Tom Pettit and Jamison Roozeboom dispatched their four competitors in their two matches yesterday to reach today’s semifinals of the Class 1A state tournament in Waterloo. In round one, the Little Dutch downed a pair from Saydel in straight sets, 6 – 1 and 6 – 1, before dominating St. Albert – Council Bluffs in straight sets, 6 – 3 and again 6 – 3. The worst Pella can do is fourth place, and they’ll participate in a big semifinal match this morning at 10:00 a.m. versus a doubles’ team from Assumption.
