Ben Cline 6-0, 6-1 winner at No. 1 singles
The Tigers swept the four singles matches and added two wins in three doubles contests for a convincing 6-1 non-conference dual meet win Monday night, Apr. 11, at Faribault.
The victory evened Farmington's record at 1-1 and snapped a long losing streak dating back to the 2009 season.
Ironically, veteran Jack Olwell, out of town attending a professional conference, was not on hand to to witness the streak end.
"Jon Malin (assistant coach) gets all the credit for the win," Olwell quipped. "I guess when you remove the impediment to success, good things happen."
Ben Cline, Blake Olmscheid, Seth Roberts and Brian Waldbillig each rolled to straight-set victories in singles and the second and third doubles teams of Jake Zakoskie/Ivan Rodriguez and Austin Tremmel/Colton Sanders also won in two-set matches.
The Tigers will try to make it two in a row Wednesday when they host Lakeville South at the Boeckman Middle School courts.
