The Carbon Invitational took place last weekend, with six schools from across the region coming to Price for two days of competition.  The Dinos went 2-3 in the tournament, finishing in fourth place.

Uintah claimed first place, followed by Richfield. Union, Carbon, Delta, and Gunnison Valley comprised the remainder of the field.

In the first matches of the day, Carbon faced the Union Cougars. The only match wins came from Memphis Howell in the second singles, going the distance 4-3 (7-4) and 4-3 (7-4).  Zander Carrillo made it through his third singles match 4-2, 4-2.

The matches with Uintah were a struggle, with Carbon coming up empty 5-0. Howell had a hard-fought match against Issac Abrams, going three sets in the loss 4-0,3-4 (2-7), 0-0 (10-2).

It was a perfect sweep in the matches against Delta as Carbon earned the 5-0 match win. Nicholas Bryner, Howell, and Carrillo earned straight-set victories in the singles matches. In the doubles matches, Judson Varner and Josiah Trostle in first doubles took a 4-2, 1-4, 0-0 (10-6), and in second doubles, Oliver Steele and Sylvian Gurule took three sets as well, 4-2, 2-4, 0-0 (10-5).

Next up was Gunnison Valley, and the Dinos would take another team win 3-2. This time, Carrillo took a straight-set win 4-1,4-1 over Lucas Nielson. The first (Varner and Trostle) and the second (Steele and Gurule) doubles teams each claimed straight-set victories.

In the weekend’s final match, the Dinos squared off with Region 12 member Richfield. The Dinos could not collect a match win, falling 5-0. The second doubles match had Steele and Gurule up against Luke Woolsey and Onyx Davis, and although it was a loss, it was a battle that went three sets 2-4, 4-0, 0-0 (10-4).

Carbon will welcome North Sanpete to Price on Tuesday.

Matches will start at 3:30 p.m..
