IRONTON – Madeline Coles, Lily Pursley and Reese Brogan each won two matches, and Arcadia Valley scored a rare victory over Farmington in girls tennis action.

Pursley and Brogan cruised to an 8-1 doubles win, and Coles topped Coleman 8-4 atop the singles rankings favoring Arcadia Valley (1-5, 1-2).
