The Fergus Falls Otter tennis team traveled to Moorhead for a dual on Wednesday with the Spuds coming out on top 5-2.

 

The wins for the Otters came at 2nd singles and 2nd doubles.  Leila Nasri played a marathon two-setter against a very consistent opponent.  Leila did a great job of staying patient and using her strengths in windy conditions.  Leila has been playing some very consistent and solid singles for us so far this year.  She is one of our players that can play on either side of the lineup.  She's played both singles and doubles for us the last few years, but is really owning the singles side of things so far this season.  Karley Braeger and Cyntreya Lockett played the longest match of the day, winning the first set but dropping the second, forcing a decisive third set. The duo started the final set down a break, but battled back, demonstrated some amazing work at the net, and came back to take the match 6-4 in the final set.  

Kaia Ness also played a very tight match for us at 4th singles.  Kaia showed us great ability to move the ball around and keep her opponent on the move.  She ended up dropping the match 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, but had a great showing on court today.  

The Otters travel to Detroit Lakes Thursday for a 4pm dual with the Lakers.
