JOHNNIES OVERPOWER SAINTS

Gregg Petcoff

Box score

St. Scholastica hosted the Johnnies from Saint John's Univeristy on Saturday afternoon at the Arrowhead Tennis Center in Duluth, but the visitors were hardly kind in their 9-0 defeat of the Saints.

Brendan Anderson (Plymouth, Minn./Wayzata HS) and Scott Hawley (Eveleth, Minn./Eveleth-Gilbert HS) nearly picked up a point for the Saints in the opening doubles matches with a narrow 9-8 (7-3) loss at No. 2 doubles.

Dillon Sterle (Hibbing, Minn./Hibbing HS) captured the first set 6-3 against Trevor Beach of Saint John's at No. 1 singles, but Beach rallied in the second set (6-2) and downed Sterle in the third set super tie break 1-0 (10-6).

Those proved to be the two closest matches of the day as St. Scholastica fell to 2-5 on the year while the Johnnies (1-2) picked up their first win.
