In other CMC North action Thursday:
Kelseyville 4, Cloverdale 1
At Cloverdale, Kelseyville won two out of three singles matches while taking both doubles matches in a road win against the Cloverdale Eagles.
Maddy Borghesani beat Cloverdale’s Caleb Gomez 6-1, 6-3 in first singles.
“Caleb is a good player,” Kelseyville head coach Andy Dobusch said. “It was a nice win for Maddy.”
Cloverdale came back to win in second singles, Andrew Cook defeating Riley Lopez 6-4, 2-6, 6-2.
“I’d like to think we win this match eight out of 10 times,” Dobusch said. “Not a great day for serving; too many missed serves, and too much focus on pace versus placement.”
In third singles, Liv Bushey defeated Owen Tarleton 6-2, 6-2.
“Liv displayed a lot of variety in her game,” Dobusch said. “At times, she took pace off with slice, at times she hit strong shots with top spin. It was a good, complete game.”
Riley Hanson and Brooklyn Young beat Cloverdale’s Brianna Escobar and Victoria Hernandez 6-4, 6-1 in first doubles.
“A little shaky first set after the trip over Hopland, but they settled in for a comfortable win,” Dobusch said.
Olivia Raabe and Grace Peterson breezed to a 6-0, 6-2 win in second doubles.
“They were off the court pretty quickly in this one,” Dobusch said. “These two could be sneaky good at the CMC Championships in a couple of weeks.”
Kelseyville improved to 6-4 in the CMC North standings.
The Knights host Anderson Valley on Friday at 4 p.m.
