Girls’ tennis

State College falls to Central Dauphin

STATE COLLEGE The Lady Little Lions’ Kelly Vanden, the No. 1 singles player, won her match — but she was the only local winner Friday in the State College girls’ tennis team’s 4-1 loss to Central Dauphin.

Vanden’s teammate, Amelia Dodoo, dropped a heartbreaker to Attasia Header by scores of 1-6, 7-6 (4) 10-4.
