When Caroline Lovvorn’s shot was returned into the net, it kicked off a celebration with teammate Kiley Demoss that had never been experienced before in Madisonville-North Hopkins tennis history. Lovvorn and Demoss defeated the South Warren team of Morgan Robertson and Peyton Lemily 6-4, 6-3 to become the first Madisonville girls tennis players – singles or doubles – to advance to the semifinals of the KHSAA State Tennis Tournament. The win was their third of the day – all three inside the University of Kentucky indoor facility due to spotty rain showers that hit Lexington throughout Wednesday. Lovvorn and Demoss overcame slow starts in all four of their state matches, falling behind 4-3 in the first set of their quarterfinal match. https://www.yoursportsedge.com/2025/05/28/caroline-lovvorn-and-kiley-demoss-continue-historic-madisonville-state-tennis-run-w-photos/featured/scottbrown/ https://www.yoursportsedge.com/2025/05/28/maxs-moment-madisonville-doubles-team-advances-to-state-semifinals/featured/scottbrown/
