3-0 for the season
Park of Cottage Grove won three of four singles matches and swept the doubles competition on the way to a 6-1 non-conference win over the Tigers Monday, April 18, in Cottage Grove.
"I thought we played well at most positions," Farmington coach Jack Olwell said. "They were tougher in some spots but I thought it was a toss-up at others."
The Farmington point came at third singles where Seth Roberts kept his season record unblemished (3-0) with a 6-4, 6-2 win.
"Seth played his best tennis of the season in winning the last five games of the second set," Olwell said.
Blake Olmscheid played well in a hotly contested 4-7, 6-7 (2) loss at second singles.
"It was a well-played match by both players," Olwell said. "There were many long and some exquisitely played points that were a feast to the tennis fan. We hated to see this match end."
The third doubles team of Austin Tremmel and Colton Sanders also performed well in a losing effort. The Tiger duo fell in three sets, 4-6, 7-5, 4-6.
"This is a pair with a promising future," Olwell said.
