Kendall Lee and Anacortes High School tennis coach Jeff Leer
Kendall Lee has brought her A-game – as in Anacortes – to area tennis courts this spring.
The La Conner High School junior has competed in 2024 for Anacortes head coach Jeff Leer and the 2A Seahawks since tennis is no longer offered at La Conner.
The arrangement has paid dividends for Lee, who qualified last week for the Washington State Girls' 2B/1B Tennis Championships May 24-25 in Yakima.
Playing for Anacortes during the regular campaign kept Lee sharp for 2B/1B post-season action May 17 at the Amy Yee Tennis Center.
The La Conner netter advanced from Friday's Bi-District trials in Seattle, where Lee enjoyed a solid tourney performance that included a hard-fought 6-3, 6-3 setback to eventual title winner Tenley Stuurmans of Coupeville.
State matches are scheduled to get under way this Friday on the outdoor courts at the Yakima Tennis Center. In the event of inclement weather, matches will be moved to the Yakima Tennis Club's indoor courts.
In addition to her tennis prowess, Lee is a key member of the La Conner's girls' soccer program.
Kendall Lee has played tennis this season under the guidance of Anacortes High School tennis coach Jeff Leer.
