The Alexandria boys tennis team swept another Central Lakes Conference match on Thursday night, this time taking down Fergus Falls in a 7-0 final that moved the Cardinals to 13-0.

“The Otters have quietly put together a winning season and are very competitive at every spot in their lineup,” Alexandria head coach Dave Ronning said. “All the credit goes to our guys going out and playing good, sound, smart tennis. We are so proud of the way this team is competing and the work ethic they have to want to improve daily.”
