    The Rockwood boys tennis team remained undefeated on the season recently by picking up a 6-3 victory over Carter.

    The victory marks the fourth time this season that the Tigers have been able to win despite forfeiting two matches. Rockwood has just five players and cannot field a team in the singles No. 6 match nor the doubles No. 3 match.

    Rockwood did, however, win six of the seven matches that they competed in. The Tigers went 4-1 in singles and 2-0 in doubles.
