Hurricane shows heart in 5-0 loss to Falcons

0

ADAMS TOWNSHIP — Clinton-Massie won its seventh straight match Thursday 5-0 over Wilmington on the Lebanon Road courts.

“This match was a lot closer than the 0-5 score shows,” WHS head coach Steve Reed said. “We showed some heart and several players are working through issues that are definitely affecting their play.”

The Falcons, after a loss to Goshen on April 6, have now improved to 10-1 overall and 6-1 in the division.

“The score doesn’t reflect how great the competition was,” said Rod Amburgy, Clinton-Massie head coach. “We were down a set on two courts and went into a tiebreaker on another. I knew coach Reed would have his team ready to play. Our guys responded to a tough challenge.”

Wilmington is 2-10 overall and 0-6 in league play.

“We are getting better with each match and the team is optimistic going into our match at Western Brown (on Friday).”

Alex Lazic and Clinton-Massie’s Connor Stulz played a three-set match at first singles with Stulz rallying for a 1-6, 6-1, 7-5 win.
