Adam Barry claimed the No. 3 singles match against the Braves’ Kent Criminger 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4.

Prior to Tuesday, the Owls had already won the No. 2 singles match as Ty McCory bested the Braves’ Cole Brock 6-1, 6-3.

Sy Zickler and Ethan Carlin claimed a win for the Braves at No. 2 doubles over the Owls’  Tanner Johnson and John Newton 6-2, 6-0 at the earlier date.

At No. 1 doubles, the Braves’ Riley Carlin and Sam Hoff had won their match over Josiah Rudge and Grant Handloser 6-4, 4-6, 7-5.

The Owls (4-10) will host Jennings County today in Hoosier Hills Conference Tournament and the Braves move to 14-6 on the season.
