MHS boys tennis claims first conference win against Bismarck High

BISMARCK — The Minot High School boys tennis team started conference play Tuesday with a win over Bismarck High. The Magicians claimed the match at Tom O’Leary Tennis Courts 8-1.

“We started with doubles and got strong play from all three of our teams,” Magi head coach Scott DeLorme said. “We’re showing glimpses of playing to our potential and now we need to put that into longer stretches. That will come from experience and each match is a huge bonus for our entire lineup.”

The Magicians swept the Demons in doubles. Each doubles pair — Ridge Jaeger and Jack Wolsky, Zach Diehl and Zach Renaud, Hunter Rice and Aiden Diehl — took their victories in straight sets.

Earning wins in singles were Jaeger, Wolsky, Rice, Renaud and Aiden Diehl.

At No. 1 in singles, sophomore Zach Diehl faught hard for two sets, but ultimately fell to Bismarck High’s Lucas Schell 7-6 (4) and 7-6 (6).

“The nice part of our early matches is we’re getting match play experience, but more importantly we’re seeing positive contributions from everyone within the lineup which will be a huge boost as we get into the tougher part of our schedule,” DeLorme added.

Up next, the Magicians will be back on their home court Thursday as they face Williston at Hammond Park. The match is set to begin at 4:30 p.m.
