Against Muscle Shoals, the doubles team of Toby Gray and Kirk Armstrong picked up the only win for the Tigers 11-10.
They also won a doubles match against Mars Hill 11-10. Winning singles matches for the Tigers were Gray with a 10-4 victory against Drake Davis and Roman Lynch with a 10-3 victory against Colton Durdundi.
The girls lost to Covenant Christian 9-0 and Mars Hill 9-0 to fall to 0-7 overall and 0-6 in section play.
