Prairie Conference tennis

Members of the B-B-E Jaguars girls' tennis team had a truly super Saturday this weekend.

Morgan Meyer and Erin Rooney at one doubles advanced to the championship match of the Prairie Conference girls' tennis tournament on Saturday. They were facing the one doubles team from state-ranked Osakis when the event was rained out. At two doubles, Jessica Raveling and Sonja Carson were playing for third place when that was rained out.

Three-doubles players Mallory Bents and Addy Wohlman took third place.

Long Prairie-Grey Eagle activities director Randy Swanson reported that the unfinished matches will be made up at a future date.

Other details will be posted later.

Parents' Night win!

Sonja Carson gets a high five from Coach Olson after she and two-doubles partner Jessica Raveling won the third set and give the Jaguars a 2-1 lead in points against WCA.

A three-set win at two-singles by Morgan Pastian gave the Jaguars girls' tennis team a 4-1 lead and a nice conference win over West Central Area on Parents' Night. The match started out with WCA getting a win at three singles and the Jaguars winning at three doubles. B-B-E's second point came from a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 win by Jessica Raveling and Sonja Carson at two doubles, and the lead stretched to 3-1 with a 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 win by Katie Boie at four singles.

Morgan Pastian slugged out a three-set win at two singles by scores of 6-0, 2-6 and 6-1 to hand her team the win. The final score was 6-1.

It's the fourth team win of the season for the Jaguars, who play at Long Prairie on Thursday. That will complete the dual matches for the Prairie Conference schedule.

In junior high football action, the 7th grade Jaguars beat Holdingford 26-0, while the 8th grade Jaguars lost a tough battle by a 30-18 score. They trailed 16-6 at halftime but scored in the third quarter to make it 16-12. After the Huskers took a 24-12 lead, the Jaguars scored another touchdown to make it 24-18. They had the ball and were threatening to tie the game, but the Huskers came up with a pick-six play for the final score.

Jaguars vs. Panthers

Morgan Meyer and Erin Rooney, smiling bright tonight after becoming the winning one-doubles team for the Jaguars girls' tennis team. Their win was as good as it gets, coming by a third-set super tiebreaker by a 10-8 score.

A tough Parkers Prairie Panthers squad lost 4-3 to our Jaguars girls' tennis team tonight after holding a 3-1 lead. The Jaguars picked up exciting wins at one doubles, one singles and two singles for the come-from-behind win.
