Finals: Tabatha Farmer fLees-McRael defaulted number four singles because of sprained ankle. f 'W The Lees-McRae Lady Bobcat net team shocked the Clinch Valley women's varsity by splitting singles with the Lady Cava- liers and then sweeping all three doubles to take a hard-earned 6-3 win over the senior college from Wise, Virginia. Nikki Baker and Tabatha Farmer were the only double win- ners of the day as they captured singles and doubles victories. Baker, down 4-2 in the first set, struggled back to 5-all, but lost her serve to go down 6-5, and senior Holly Phipps held serve to take a 7-5 first-set win. Phipps broke serve at 4-3 and Baker struggled back to break serve at 6-5 to force the second set into a tiebreaker which she won, 7-3. The two grueling sets took its toll on both players but Phipps failed to hold serve three times in the third set as Baker dominated play to post a 6-3 third-set victory. Baker, who underwent orthoscopic knee surgery for a bas- ketball injury, teamed with Humphries to win the number one doubles to complete the sweep. Baker, after playing six gruel- ling sets of tennis, began to show fatigue in the last set of the doubles, but Stephanie Humphries played inspired tennis to bolster her doubles partner to wax the final and crush their opponents, 6-0. 106 Tennis -9.7 ,, King swept four of six singles and captured all three doubles as the Lady Tornadoes recorded a 7-2 win over the Lees-McRae Lady Bobcats in tennis on the King College courts at Bristol. Stephanie Humphries and Leslie Frame were the only two Lady Bobcats to claim victories in the third and sixth singles as Nikki Baker, Tabatha Farmer, Angela Jackson and Gretchen Fearing fell in straight sets to their opponents. Nazareth College of Rochester, New York, captured four of the six singles and two of the three doubles to take a 6-3 win over the Lady Bobcat netters. The loss dropped the Lees-McRae Lady Bobcats to 2-2 on the season while Nazareth evened its record at 1-1. Helen Bernardi defeated Nikki Baker in straight sets, 6-1, 6-2, and Stephanie Humphries and Gretchen Fearing fell in straight set matches. Barbara Crawford pushed her opponent to a three-set match before dropping the third set in a tie- breaker, 7-5. Singles winners were Tabatha Farmer at number three singles and Angela Jackson at the number four singles. Both Lady Bobcats walked away with straight set victories. Crawford and Fearing got some measure of revenge as they won their third doubles in three sets, 5-7, 6-0, 7-6.
