Each month, Ad Astra Radio recognizes a girls and boys Team of the Month, selected from area high schools. The Girls Team of the Month for October goes to Buhler Girls Tennis.
The month: Buhler had a consistent month, especially in three postseason tournaments. The Crusaders started out with a third-place finish in one of the toughest conference meets in the
state, as Wichita Collegiate won and McPherson was second. Sofia Spies was the singles champion for the second time in three years. The Crusaders were second at regionals, behind only Collegiate. Spies was runner-up, while the doubles team of Emily Allen and Ella Gillespie was fourth. At state, Buhler finished third behind Collegiate and McPherson. Spies was state runner-up in singles and finished the season 31-6. Allen and Gillespie also medaled at state, finishing ninth.
