The Iowa girls high school state tennis championships are set to begin on October 1, with winners in both singles and doubles in Class 1A and 2A crowned on October 2.

The tournaments will take place in Iowa City and Waterloo, as the official tournament brackets were made public by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union recently.

Defending two-time 1A singles state champion Gabi Fleming begins her quest for a third title in three years as the No. 1 seed. Fleming faces Megan Lausen of Estherville-Lincoln Central in the opening round.

Kate Holton of Waterloo Columbus, who Fleming topped in the finals last year, is also back. She will square off with Layla Hargis of Treynor. Fleming and Holton could meet for the championship once again, as they are on opposite sides of the bracket.

Another medalist, Dowling Catholic’s Victoria Bakros, is back, as she was sixth last year.
