Under perfect tennis weather on Friday, the Dos Pueblos High School boys’ tennis team didn’t show the wear and tear of Thursday’s league match, this time posting a 14-4 win over Santa Ynez.
Hitting with precision, Christian Edstrom swept his singles, including a win over Miles Seemann, the Tigers’ top player. In doubles, Dos Pueblos took eight of nine sets, but each team encountered a long, tough battle against the strong No. 1 Tigers team of Logan Deats and Brandon Mann.
Both teams displayed fine sportsmanship and support of each other, and the spectators mingled well.
Way to go, Chargers! They improve to 11-5 overall. The Tigers fall to 12-2.
Dos Pueblos will travel to Santa Barbara on Tuesday for its second league match.
