Girls Tennis: Cannon Falls dominates Tiger Invite

Farmington concluded a busy first week of regular season play by finishing third in its three-team invitational tournament Friday, Aug. 27, at the Robert Boeckman Middle School courts.

Cannon Falls dominated play, garnering 16 points. Belle Plaine tallied 7 and Farmington 1.

The Tiger point came at second singles where Meghan Lindstrom went 1-1, defeating her opponent from Belle Plaine and losing to her counterpart from Cannon Falls.

"We had plenty of chances to get into the win column today," coach Jack Olwell said, "but they got away. I thought we competed well but didn't close the deal when we had the opportunity."

The Tigers will try to post their first dual meet win of the season Wednesday, Sept. 1 when they travel to Burnsville for a non-conference contest. Thursday they open Missota Conference play with a home match against Red Wing.
