St. Aloysius’ tennis team didn’t have to lift a finger to beat Silliman on Monday.

The Flashes won both boys’ doubles matches and one singles match by forfeit when Silliman couldn’t fill the court, and those points turned out to be the difference as they won 6-3 at Halls Ferry Park.

The teams split the other matches 3-3. Michael Moore won his boys’ singles match 6-2, 6-1, while Cristan Wood rallied for a 4-6, 6-0, 11-9 tiebreaker win in No. 1 girls’ singles.

Silliman won both girls’ doubles matches, but St. Al’s Carrie Wood and Walker Moore cruised to a 6-0, 6-0 victory in mixed doubles.

St. Al’s match at Central Hinds on Tuesday has been postponed because of the threat of severe weather. It will be back at home Thursday at 4 p.m. for its MAIS District 4-5A opener against Copiah Academy.
