Girls Tennis: Stars dim Tiger's day

Maggie Rudorfer lost 1-6, 3-6 at No. 2 singles

Holy Angels won in straight sets at every position in a 7-0 victory over the Tigers in a Missota Conference dual meet played Thursday, Sept. 20, at Valley View Park in Bloomington.
"What can't be seen in the final score is some of the strides we've made over the last six weeks," Tiger coach Jack Olwell said. "I am proud of the way we are working hard and competing. We have not lost sight of our goals despite the difficulties we've faced."
Olwell said several of his players turned in quality performances in the losing effort against the Stars, including Maggie Rudorfer at second singles and the No. 2 doubles tandem of Jessica Autey and Rachel Molitor.
"Maggie had a great overall day and a particularly strong second set," he said. "Jessica and Rachel put together a brilliant comeback in their second set."
The Tigers jump back into Missota Conference play Thursday with a home match against Northfield at the Boeckman Middle School courts..
