History was made last week as Goldsmith, a Texas A&M commitment, became the first Tiger tennis player to win a UIL singles state tennis title. Goldsmith opened her run in the state tournament with a 6-0, 6-0 win over Nederland High Jayci Wong in the state quarterfinals, which was followed by a 6-0, 6-1 win over Colleyville Heritage’s Gretchen Pfeiffer May 18. Goldsmith outlasted Anna Zhang of McKinney North High in a 7-6, 3-6, 6-4 win.
