Aberdeen won two of three singles matches en route to a 4-2 victory over Black Hills on Monday in Aberdeen.

Bobcats singles players Andrew Troeh and Carter Olsen each dropped just two games in winning their singles matches in straight sets.

“Solid singles play was the difference today,” Bobcats head coach Andrew Duffy said. “Andrew Troeh and Carter Olsen played solid tennis today and took care of business.”

Aberdeen hosts undefeated Tumwater (6-3, 3-2 Evergreen 2A) in a makeup match at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Singles — John Schade (Black Hills) defeated Asdon Swope (Aberdeen) 6-2, 6-0. Andrew Troeh (A) def. Ryan Cokl (BH) 6-0, 6-2. Carter Olsen (A) def. Vicent Lopez (BH) 6-2, 6-0.

GIRLS PREP SOCCER

Napavine 2, Ocosta 1 (OT)

The Ocosta Wildcats lost 2-1 to Napavine on a penalty kick in the second minute of overtime on Monday at Napavine High School.

Ocosta (3-4-1 overall, 0-1-0 Pacific 2B) took a 1-0 lead when Kianna Battiste scored on a pass from Katelynn Denny in the 23rd minute.

But Napavine (4-4-1, 1-0-0) tied the Pacific League contest at 1-1 with a goal just seven minutes later.

Ocosta let two golden opportunities to take a lead slip away by missing two penalty kicks, allowing the game to go into overtime.

The Tigers converted their opportunity early in the first overtime to secure the victory.

Ocosta head coach Mike King said too many defensive mistakes hurt a Wildcats team that had no reserves available for play on Monday.

“We came ready to play but committed too many fouls in the defensive end,” King said. “The girls gave it everything they have, but we’re shorthanded this week.”

Ocosta plays on the road in Toledo at 6 p.m. on Wednesday.

Ocosta 1 0 0 — 1

Napavine 0 1 1 — 2
