A win and a loss for CL boys tennis team

(Above) Clear Lake’s Mac Adams returns a volley during recent tennis action. 

Inclement weather in Clear Lake put the Clear Lake boys tennis team on the road twice last week for matches.  The Lion split matches with tough opponents.

Boone 9, CL 0

An experienced Boone team handled the Lions 9-0.

“Boone has a very experienced team with six seniors in their line up. They are a top four team in the state,” said Coach Rich Peters.  “The Lions overall made too many unforced errors.  It was good to get out and play and see what we need to work on.”
