“ The singles players did a great job today,” USC tennis coach Kim Stevermer said. “Only giving up one game between the four of them.”

Much like the singles matches, the doubles teams of Cami Christian/Brianna Schroeder, Dani Roberts/Megan Chicos and Monica Bye/Andrea Harpestad all won their matches in straight sets as well.

“ First doubles had the toughest match tonight as New Ulm put their one and two singles together to make a doubles team,” Stevermer said. “ Brianna and Cami stayed strong and stepped up their game.”

The 11-1 Rebels play their final regular season match on Monday as they host Belle Plaine.
