Lost amid the outstanding seasons being turned in by all of Duxbury’s spring teams is the surprising run by the Lady Dragons’ tennis team under first-year Coach Jutta Rossano. After a 5-0 loss to Scituate in early April, Duxbury has run off seven straight wins to raise its record to 9-1 while qualifying for post-season play. Duxbury dominated Randolph to start the week, as #1 singles player Michaela Dowd blanked Rebeccah MacKinnon, 6-0/6-0, #2 Liza Thomas took care of Laura Gallow, 6-1/6-1, and Erin Nelson at #3 beat Aynslie Chaneco, 6-1/6-1. It wasn’t much harder at first doubles, where Jane Morgan and Cory Tucker knocked off Tram Nguyen and Quynh Nguyen, 6-1/6-1, while the #2 doubles team of Julia Allen and Charlotte Weil made quick work of Sally Vu and Jessica Tran, 6-0/6-1. The girls took care of Rockland in a similar manner two days later with a 5-0 win over the Bulldogs. The singles trio of Dowd (6-2/6-0 over Colleen McPartlin), Thomas (6-1/6-2 over Megan Pratt), and Casey Reinhart (6-3/6-1 over Leah Damon) made it a short afternoon, and they were joined by the doubles tandems of Morgan/Tucker and Allen/Weil in sending the Bulldogs home early. It took a little more effort to knock off the Red Raiders, as losses at #1 and #2 singles put pressure on the remaining matches. Annie Gluskin took care of Julie Ross at #3 singles with a 6-1/6-2 victory, while Allen and Weis easily beat Lindsey MacPherson and Julie Doyle at #2 doubles, 6-0/6-1. Morgan and Tucker won their first set 6-3 at #1 doubles, then held off a charge by Carmen Seto and Stacey Chung to take the second set in a tie-breaker, 6-6 (7-5). â€We were lucky that the rain held off after that long drive up to North Quincy,†said Rossano. “Our singles players played well and fought hard, but Annie came through at #3 by playing her own game. I was proud of all of them.†|
