Kennedy Rusk and Britney Fletcher, No.1 doubles, brought the lone win during the Brainerd Warriors 6-1 loss to the St. Cloud Tech Tigers during their Central Lakes Conference meet Friday at Brainerd.
St. Cloud Tech ranked No. 1 in Class 2A with an 8-0 overall record.
Tech senior Taylor Tarrolly ranked No. 10 in 2A.
"We always look forward to competing against Tech," said Warriors head coach Lisa Salo. "As we know they are a highly skilled and well-coached team."
"At first doubles, Rusk and Fletcher did a nice job clinching two competitive sets. They played aggressive doubles and really took control of the net which was the key factor in the match."
Junior Varsity winners: Audrey Collins and Jessica Ernster, singles; Maria Bell-Macey Peterson, Elizabeth Eigen-Heidi Jacobson, and Georgi Aus-Lexus Ruggles, doubles. All other JV matches were not completed due to rain.
