Braves tennis tie with Menominee

Dennis Grall | Daily Press Taylor Trudeau of Gladstone prepares to hit a return shot in Monday’s No. 1 doubles match against Menominee at Gladstone James T. Jones School.

GLADSTONE — The Gladstone Braves won three doubles matches here Monday while the Menominee Maroons took three singles matches as the teams finished in a 4-4 girls tennis stalemate.
