By Cort Reynolds
DEFIANCE - The Ada boys tennis team advanced two singles players to the district level with a pair of top-three performances in Div. II sectional play at Defiance Saturday.

Ada senior Zach Beaschler was the top seed in the singles flight at Defiance, and he showed why by winning handily all six sets he played. He received a first round bye in the 31-player field, then won 6-0, 6-1 in the second round over Saleh.

In the quarterfinals, Beaschler rolled over Sayre 6-0, 6-0 to reach the semifinals against Bulldog teammate Cade Mullins.
