Tuesday night the Fergus Falls girls’ tennis team hosted Moorhead in the first round of the section 8AA team tournament.  The day started with a couple hours of unfortunate rain delay and ended with the Spuds upsetting the Otters 4-3 on their home courts.  

We felt pretty good about the matchup heading into the match as we've beaten them twice earlier this season 6-1 and 5-2 and have been playing top notch tennis as of late.  Hats off to Moorhead though, they came ready to play.  They took three of our four singles matches tonight and a three-set match at second doubles.  Tonight was definitely not our best tennis, but the girls have nothing to hang their heads about.  We had a tremendous run as a team this season.  The Otters earned 2nd place in the Central Lakes Conference and posted a very nice 15-5 team record.  

There is still more tennis to be played.  On Friday, #4 seed Isabella Abrahams and Ruby Ellison will play in the individual singles tournament.  Likewise, our #3 seeded doubles team of Hattie Fullhart/Ashtyn Lill and Layla Zosel/Kaia Ness will play in the individual doubles tournament.  These matches will take place indoors at Choice Health & Fitness in Grand Forks.

Singles:
1. Madison Anderson (M) defeated Isabella Abrahams (FF) 6-2, 7-5.
2. Ruby Ellison (FF) defeated Elizabeth Glatt (M) 6-1, 6-2.
3. Amber Anderson (M) defeated Layla Zosel (FF) 6-1, 6-1.
4. Sienna Lee (M) defeated Kaia Ness (FF) 6-4, 6-3.
