The Forest Lake girls tennis team wasted no time beating Park (Cottage Grove) 6-1 last Tuesday, but a day later Stillwater was a different story as the Rangers lost 1-6.

Forest Lake swept the singles matches against Park, winning every one of them in two sets. In the Doubles, Forest Lake won two of the three matches as well. Paige Patchin won her singles match easily 6-0, 6-1, and Katie Anderson won her match fairly easily as well 6-2, 6-1. Jenny and Amanda Coozennoyís doubles match was the only match of the day to go three sets as they won 6-7, 6-4, 6-4.

Hilary Framke was the only Forest Lake winner against Stillwater as she won her singles match 6-3, 6-1. Two of the doubles matches were close matches, but Stillwater came out the winners.
Forest Lake ends conference play with a record of 3-4, and their season record is 10-7.

ìI think we finished well, we had a good season, but still have important matches,î Forest Lake girls tennis coach Judy Hill said of the teams performance this season.

The team now has to wait until Thurs. to find out where they will be seated for sectional playoffs. Hill feels her team can be in the top eight of the 16-team section.
