Gaeth won her tenth match without a loss so far for the season at number 1 singles. Wright and Petersen also remained undefeated in singles, winning their eleventh straight matches. 

Glacier Peak won the match 4-3, giving the Thunderbirds their first loss in WesCo South 3A. They were tied with the Grizzlies for first place. Shorewood's record in league is 6-1 and 9-2 overall.
