Tuesday night the Fergus Falls Otters traveled to Detroit Lakes for a section 8AA girls’ tennis dual.  The Lakers took the match 4-3 in a nail biter.

“Tonight's match was highlighted by a come-from-behind win for Amber Anderson at second singles,” said Fergus Falls Head Coach Jamie Lill.  “Amber played this same player in a match up earlier this season and lost in straight sets.  Tonight Amber found herself down a set before turning things up a notch and earning the win in three sets.  This was a great mental victory for Amber.  Amber had a nice lead in the first set before it slipped away.  Sometimes in matches, losing a set you were in control of can be a big hurdle for players to overcome, but today Amber battled her way back and stuck with her game plan to get the win.  Madison Anderson also got a nice win for us at first singles, as did Mackenzie Krava and Mia Marsh at second doubles.” 

The Otters hit the road to Bemidji on Thursday for a triangular with Bemidji and Moorhead beginning at 10:30am.
