Jeremy Rietmann defeated Trevor Yoder 8-0. "Rietmann displayed explosive serves and smart shot placement," said coach Cathy McCabe. Derek Campbell lost to Nathan Clark 3-8. "Campbell improves constantly on his court coverage," said McCabe. Aaron Tworek duked it out with, former Heppner High School student Josh McKinney to post a win of 8-4. "Tworek utilized his exceptional speed by rushing the net to dominate his opponent," McCabe said. The doubles duo of Adam McCabe and Adam NeifTer easily defeated their opponents, Heath Anderson and Joey Trotter. "McCabe and Neiffer exposed their adversary's weaknesses and hit the ball to the open area on the court," she said. Colin McElligott and Jeremiah McElligott defeated Shawn Campbell and Josh McKinney, 8- 1. The team of McElligott x2 did an "excellent job of covering the baseline and taking advantage of the net plays." David Mansfeld and Cameron Krebs defeated Trevor Yoder and Nathan Clark, 8-3. Mansfeld had some long rallies that often ended in their favor. Krebs overcame some difficulties he had during the beginning of the match for a strong finish. Mansfeld hustled on the court for massive coverage posting several saves. Jennifer Thompson was handed a loss by Taunia Trotter, 1-8. Thompson had a good match but Trotter is a hard hitter who uses a huge amount of topspin, making getting the ball off the ground very difficult. Shelby Krebs defeated Jennifer Bailey, 8-6. Krebs and Bailey kept a tight score throughout the match., Krebs executed hard, solid hits. Caitlin Orem came from a 1-4 deficit to defeat K’Tynn Kennedy, 9-7. "Orem is a very C a itlin O re m w a its fo r a s e rv e fro m h e r o p p o n e n t. methodical player who gets to the ball, sends it back over and waits for her opponent to make the mistakes," McCabe said. Samantha Wilhelm lost to Nicole Griffith, 2-8. Wilhelm played well for her first match of the season. She continues to improve with the more experience she gets. The doubles team of Erin Crowell and Molly Barrow defeated Breanna Anderson and Tessa Nicholson, 8-3. Barrow did an "excellent job of covering in the back court" while Crowell displayed her "usual aggressive play at the net." Salli McElligott and Sheena Christman teamed up to play Taunia Trotter and Jennifer Bailey. Although the score of 1-8 does not reflect it, both Christman and McElligott did a nice job of getting the ball back over the net.
