Plymouth (7-5) singles winners were juniors Sophia Cantero and Mia Hartley, who took the 2S and 3S matches in straight sets.

Doubles winners for the Pilgrims Monday were 1D Marley Christy-Emma Jackson and 2D Marisa Langfeldt-Natalie Sheely.

Both Pilgrim doubles teams continued to show aggressive play and took their matches in straight sets as well.

After losing the first set, Tynley Gantz responded in the second set by taking a 5-2 lead, but couldn’t hang on against Bremen’s top singles player, Emma Lawmaster, falling in straight sets.

“Overall, I’m happy to get a win against a team that is a traditionally strong program like Bremen. We saw some good things on all the courts. I like how Tynley responded after losing the first set, but wish she could have gotten her match to the third set. Our goal is to keep improving each match so that we can finish out the year strong. We will have a tough test tomorrow night against a strong (and undefeated) Goshen team, but I like our chances if we bring our best focus and effort into the match," said Coach Brad Haeck.
