The Brandywine tennis team continues to tune up for the post season.

The Bobcats blanked host Dowagiac 8-0 in a non-conference match Wednesday.

Brandywine dropped just five games in sweeping the singles flights and were nearly as dominant in the doubles flights.

The Bobcats dropped 14 games in sweeping the doubles matches.

The best match of the day came at No. 2 doubles where Libby Moody and Shelby Fortune defeated Mackenzie Brooks and Hailee Green 6-2 and 6-3.

All eight of our flights played well,” Brandywine coach Jo Marazita said. “It is encouraging to be peaking at the right time before conference and regionals.”

For the third time in a week, Niles has scored a 5-3 tennis victory.

Previously, the Vikings defeated Kalamazoo Loy Norrix and Three Rivers 5-3.

On Wednesday, Niles defeated Kalamazoo Central in a SMAC match by the same score.

Julia Kosten was the lone winner in singles competition for the Vikings as she defeated Emily Spillman 7-6 and 6-3.

Niles swept the doubles flights, winning each in straight sets and dropping just eight games.

The Vikings will compete in the SMAC Conference Tournament Saturday and wrap up the regular season at Sturgis Monday.
