Norwell overpowers Jay County netters (08/17/07)
JCHS boys tennis
After eking out a win in its opener, the Jay County boys tennis team couldn't do the same Thursday.
In their first action on their home courts, the Patriots slipped to 1-1 with a 3-2 loss to the Norwell Knights.
Both of Jay County's wins came in quick fashion, with Josh Ludy tallying a shutout in his first set at No. 1 singles. Ludy finished off the second set and the match almost as quickly as he topped Blake Fiechter and Levi Gerber 6-0, 6-2.
Mark Alberson and Adam Horn gave up just three games at No. 2 doubles. Playing together for the first time this year, the duo rolled over Kyle Reinhard and Ross Matthews 6-1, 6-2.
Kyle Simmons came the closest to a third JCHS victory, but dropped two close games at No. 3 singles for a 7-5, 6-4 defeat. At No. 2 singles Phil Powell dropped 6-3, 6-4 to Jason Isch, and in No. 1 doubles action Heath Rigby and Thomas McCowan lost 6-0, 6-2 to Blake Fiechter and Levi Gerber.
