Newburyport 5, Marblehead 0
The Magicians had three matches go to three sets, but Newburyport proved too strong in the end.
“The score did not reflect the closeness and the quality of the matches,” said Marblehead coach Tracy Ackerman. “Our doubles teams have shown great improvements in the last two weeks. Three of the four players do not have any varsity experience, so I expect them to get better and better as the season goes on. It should be fun to watch.”
