Escanaba, the host, took third with 17. West Iron County was fourth with 7 while Gladstone had 2.

Kingsford actually won one more flight Tuesday than the Sentinels — four — capturing three in singles plus the No. 1 doubles title.

But Marquette made up for it by sweeping second places at every other flight, while the Flivvers finished in third place at No. 4 singles, conceding the extra point they had grabbed with one more title.

MSHS’s toughest championship came at No. 3 doubles, where Elan Chu and Kane Bush prevailed with a 6-3, 7-6 (9-7) victory in the finals over Kingsford’s Jacob Waara and Richard Waara.

The Sentinels also won at No. 2 doubles, with Connor Dunn and Bode Helman taking a 6-1, 7-5 triumph over the Flivvers’ Alex Hemgren and Beau Bracket in their finale.

And Marquette completed its edge in doubles at No. 4, with Billy Krebs and Jack Tiziani taking a 6-1, 6-4 victory over KHS’ Tyler Berglund and Gabe Mancuso in their last match.

The other doubles flight, No. 1, ended with Kingsford’s Andy Yu and Clark Robb winning 6-3, 6-1 over MSHS’ Winston Leonard and Conner Henry.

In singles, Marquette ran up against three Flivvers players and an Escanaba netter in the finals, and while the Sentinels didn’t win any of them, they took one of those matches to three sets.

That was at No. 1 singles, where Kingsford’s Landon Adam held off the MSHS’s Lucas Belkowski 6-4, 2-6, 6-1 for that title.

At No. 2, the Flivvers’ Isaac Lebouef won 6-3, 6-4 over Marquette’s Brady Janofski, while at No. 3, Kingsford’s Evan Grymes held on for a 6-4, 7-5 win over the Sentinels’ Caden Laurn.

Then at No. 4, the Eskymos’ Kyle Smith won 6-4, 7-5 over MSHS’ Dominic Camilli in that finale.

“I have a feeling next Wednesday in Westwood, the U.P. Championships are going to be an absolute battle,” said Marquette coach Karl Thomsen.

He was referring to the MHSAA Upper Peninsula Finals in Division 1 to be hosted at 10 a.m. Eastern time that day by the Patriots and include not only the Sentinels and Flivvers, but also a powerful Negaunee team, along with Westwood, Escanaba and Gladstone.

The Division 2 U.P. Finals are scheduled for Wednesday at Kingsford, though it will be hosted by Iron Mountain.

The Mountaineers will welcome Ishpeming, Gwinn, Munising, Menominee and West Iron County to decide that MHSAA title.
