WATERTOWN – Watertown, which had its 10-match winning streak snapped on Tuesday, rebounded for a 9-0 win over Aberdeen Roncalli in non-conference tennis action on Thursday.

The Arrows have now won 10 of their last 11 matches, including a pair over Roncalli.

The closest match on the day came at flight five singles, where Keira Rivett fell 6-1, 6-4. Anna Mitzel won four games at flight four singles, while the doubles tandem of Raley Haskell and Rivett won four games at flight two.

Roncalli is scheduled to host Sioux Falls Christian on Saturday, weather permitting. It is the Cavaliers last regular-season action before the State A Tournament, which is set for Oct. 2-3 in Sioux Falls.
