Town tennis teams tangle with Twin
Bruins bust out
The Twin Falls tennis team is your typical 5A powerhouse: talented, deep and confident. The self-assured attitude they display is borne of an undefeated season, but Wood River almost put a glitch into the Bruins thus far perfect record.
In Hailey on Friday, Wood River played the Bruins to a 7-5 loss, which could be considered a very successful outing against Twin.

Storey and Woodyard outlasted Troy Barnum and Amanda Hower, winning a tough third-set tiebreaker 7-3.
Allison Kelsey and Abby Fairman were also three-set champions in #2 girls’ doubles.
Amanda Parks prevailed in #1 girls’ singles 6-1, 6-2 and Ellie France dominated her opponent in the #3 match, winning 6-1, 6-0.
Hosting Burley in Hailey Thursday, the Wolverines and Bobcats played to a 6-6 draw.
