The purple and gold netters improved to 4-5 with the convincing win over the Div. I Spartans. 

All four Bulldog victories came in straight sets. Ada won 48 games to just 13 by LS in those four match wins.

Bulldog senior Miranda Wills improved to 5-4 this season at first singles with a straight-sets win over Spartan sophomore Keegan Halliday.
