Ranger netmen win one, lose one
by Misty Volaski

It seems the Nordhoff's boys' tennis team is just another part of the food chain.
Two days after their 14-4 win over the Santa Paula Cardinals, the Rangers were nearly eaten alive by the Malibu Sharks, 4-14.
Which is not to say Nordhoff didn't put up a good fight.
Coach Ron Edwards said of his squad, "All Ranger players played well but could not quite keep up with the high skills from Malibu."
The No. 1 double team Rhett Walker and Tyson Barker won two of their three sets, 6-0 and 6-1.
NHS's No. 2 team, J.J. Weber and Evan Schick, and No. 3 team, Meher Galler and Nathan Lurie, each won a set apiece.
The Santa Paula game found all three sweeping the Cardinal doubles. Andrew Nelson continued his winning streak, taking all three of his matches, as well.
The Rangers will play next at Carpinteria High School today at 3 p.m.
