Two victories in three days have lifted the Bluffton High School girls tennis team to a 13-2 dual match record, assuring the Pirates of their best percentage season in history.

Coach Jesse Sensenig's netters disposed of Archbold 4-1 last Saturday morning and followed that up with a 3-2 edging of Bath Monday, both wins on the road.
