The Polson boys and girls’ tennis teams went undefeated during a week with four tennis matches in six days. The boys raised their record to 16-0 on the season and the girls are now 15-1.

Clara Todd completed another undefeated week and still has not lost a set this season. She bested her toughest conference competition, Cloey Ramage of Columbia Falls, for the third time in straight sets.

The Polson girls doubles teams went 12-0 on the week and showed significant improvement.

Torrin Ellis picked up a huge singles win, 6-2 6-2, vs. Ryan Hutchison of Corvallis. Andy Purcell of Hamilton beat Ellis 6-1 6-4 in the closest match Purcell has played all year.

Polson’s varsity doubles teams went 8-1 on the week. They were undefeated in matches vs Corvallis and Hamilton.

The Pirates and Lady Pirates schedule slows down considerably in the last two weeks leading up to the divisional tournament. Polson plays Ronan at 3 p.m. Thursday at home, for the only match of the week and the final home match of the season.
